Looks very good, but the price omg

Tonight is our last night on the island. We are going to lee’s

Safe travels home. Thanks for sharing your trip with us.

Thanks for the trip report, I do hope you made it to the French side for at least one meal!

Lee’s roadhouse. Today it was fairly quiet for Saturday night. Good calypso music band. Entertaining. We had chicken wings, my wife had a red snapper medium size and I had grilled shrimps. The waiter manually added 15% sc to the bill. We paid with visa and he entered $81 without asking anything. I don’t like the idea to be forced to pay sc but I would have paid him anyway. My wife really enjoyed the fish. For me, wings and shrimps were just ok. Next vacation I want to check skip jack for fish and seafood.

Tomorrow we are going back to real life. lol. We had 8 days of fun and good time. How much did we spend? It’s kind of a personal question but if someone wants to compare with our friends south of the border: flight was $1200US, hotel was $1200US, food and small gifts was $1500US. Most of the time we had breakfast in our hotel room. Lunch and dinner in various places. We really like Juliette’s bistro, bovin, pizza Italy and le sucriere. The rest of the places were ok or sub par like bbb when we got sick. Weather was excellent. It only rained today for about one hour. Heavy rain I would say. Water was very warm. Overall we had a really good time.
Thank you all for advice and for taking time to read my posts.

Enjoyed reading your reports. You will be arriving to great weather at YHM.

Surprised with the manual SC add on. Our meal at lee's didn't have it. As far as Skipjack we were there last night. Worst service ever and had to leave mid meal as I was getting sick shortly after eating my warm ceaser salad. Was pretty much sick most of night from it. Wasn't pretty.

So sorry to hear that scubaman. We were debating whether to go to skip jack or Lee's. My wife wanted grilled fish. Yesterday around lunch time I went inside skip jack to see how it is and there was something I didn't like. I think it was the smell. Now I'm glad I choose Lee's. I hope you getting well soon

Thanks for all your reports. Safe travels.

This morning at Zee best. My fellow Canadians. Always a great breakfast

Plane departing in 30min. Checkin lineup was almost one hour. Lots of dogs in the airport. Mostly rescue dogs from sxm and Antigua
Talk to you later, and thank you again.

Enjoyed your trip report. Thanks!

Caesar salad seems like a safe choice and many times the food served at a restaurant may not be the cause of the sickness but actually the glassware could be the reason. https://www.servsafe.com/ServSafe-Blog/January-2019/Going-Straw-free-Review-these-Glassware-Cleaning
