Happy New Year

We're back from our whirl-wind vacation in the tropical Bahama Islands. We ate, we drank and were extremely merry. We popped champagne during midnight fireworks on the beach, which was great introduction to 2008.

While we were visiting, we finally decided on our favorite shanty in Potter's Cay, a little fishing community underneath the bridge to Paradise Island. Drum roll please....


#39, Raquel's and James Seafood Haven.


Their scorched Conch salad and fried Barracuda are like none-other.

Some highlights:
The chef catching our food right after we placed our order

The cold Kaliks (local beer named after the sounds of the island's Junkanoo celebration)

The local children selling DELICIOUS coconut cakes for dessert

Look for the red and white check table cloth if you're in town. Ask for the hot pepper sauce if you want to make a good impression on the locals.

On Location

We are in need of a Bahamavention.

Phoodadelphia will be post-poned (even more) due to a vacation. We're on holiday in the Bahamas and will have a full report on the food we eat there. Last time we went we ate turtle, so this could get interesting.

Thanks/Management
