Golden Spoons Review: Spread Urban Bistro
Newly opened Spread Urban Bistro is located in the Margaritaville Beach Resort on West Bay Road.
Golden Spoons Review: Taikun
(CNS Foodie): Tucked away in a quiet corner, just beyond the splendidly decorated foyer of The Ritz-Carlton, Grand Cayman, is an unassuming set of wooden sliding doors, which remain locked until 6pm each day. Once opened, this portal transitions patrons from the bright, cheerful environment of the adjoining Silver Palm Lounge to a dimly lit […]
CUC breaks ground on SMB substation
(CNS Local Life): Caribbean Utilities Company (CUC) recently held a groundbreaking ceremony for its new Seven Mile Beach (SMB) substation. The SMB corridor will get “enhanced reliability and sustainability” when the new gas insulated switchgear (GIS) substation is completed, which is expected by the third quarter next year, stated a CUC press release.
Golden Spoons Review: Icoa
(CNS Foodie): While Icoa’s location in Seven Mile Shops does not offer a spectacular view, it is a lovely little restaurant where I love to breakfast. But my most recent visit was in the evening as my partner and I wanted to try what was on offer for dinner.
Golden Spoons Review: Saltwater Grill
(CNS Foodie): I am always eager to try a new restaurant that emerges on the scene, but prefer to wait a while to let them work out the bugs (hopefully, not literally!). While Saltwater Grill has been open for just a few months, it is the latest addition to a chain of restaurants, each with […]
Golden Spoons Review: Craft Food & Beverage Co.
(CNS Foodie): While not considered “fine dining”, the gastropub that is Craft Food & Beverage Co. is perfectly suitable for a casual meal with friends and family or a cosy date with that someone special. The atmosphere at Craft is pretty laid back, and the food…well, it can easily be labelled “comfort”.
Golden Spoons Review: Andiamo
(CNS Foodie): I had been meaning to try out Andiamo at The Ritz-Carlton, Grand Cayman for a while but was put off by my one encounter with the restaurant which left me with the impression that it was an upmarket café. So, it was with some reservations that my friend and I decided to go […]
Golden Spoons Review: Lauren’s Café
(CNS Foodie): Lauren’s Café is tucked away in a corner of Buckingham Square. It is well known for its breakfast offering but we went there one night for dinner. The inside is small with tables around the edge; there is large seating area outside but this does not appear to used in the evening. My […]
Golden Spoons Review: The Wharf
(CNS Foodie): My companion and I decided that a nice meal out was just the thing to pick up our spirits mid-week (plus the leftovers had run out) so we headed to The Wharf Restaurant and Bar. The Wharf has been newly refurbished and we wanted to see what changes had been made and check […]
Golden Spoons Review: Yara
(CNS Foodie): It was a weekday evening and I overheard that a new steakhouse, Yara (“place” in Taino), was opening its doors and I had to go check it out. I felt a bit evil going on their soft opening night, but I did try to take that into consideration. Regardless, I have returned twice […]
Golden Spoons Review: Blue Cilantro
(CNS Foodie): Having had many a standard Sunday buffet-style brunch, I thought it was time to try the equally reputable table-served brunch at Blue Cilantro. For anyone else so inclined, note that it is very popular, so I recommend booking ahead. I’m not sure I would bother requesting the veranda area, though, as this overlooks the main […]
Golden Spoons Review: Anchor & Den Boulangerie
(CNS Foodie): A friend’s birthday found us at the Marriott’s Anchor & Den Boulangerie Brunch recently, and while it’s a lovely array of traditional and unique brunch fare, I just don’t think it’s as comprehensive nor as delicious as one would expect for $79 per person (including grats).
Golden Spoons Review: Burger Shack
(CNS Foodie): A homey little blue hut at one corner of Marquee Plaza (where the old cinema used to be) offering a big burger called out to me the other day. As I approached the Burger Shack, I couldn’t help but be optimistic that this retro-style establishment would deliver the goods. Another instant plus was […]
Golden Spoons Review: XQ’s Bar and Grill
(CNS Foodie): If you haven’t checked out this long-standing bar/restaurant/lounge yet, no more XQses! This oldie but goodie happy hour spot has a lot to offer, not the least of which is a great bar, casual atmosphere and some pretty awesome pizza.
Golden Spoons Review: Island Naturals
(CNS Foodie): Just behind Eduardo’s on West Bay Road, you will find vegetarian café, Island Naturals. The selection on the menu is incredibly diverse, with many vegan and gluten-free options. Instead of a waiter coming to you and taking your order, you go to order your food at the front and get your own drinks […]
Golden Spoons Review: Tiki Beach
(CNS Foodie): Oh, Tiki Beach … what happened to the once pristine, luxurious space? An enormous piece of prime real estate on 7 Mile Beach, we thought, why not go back and see what’s going on there on a beautiful day with no cruise ships in town. Well, if we had crickets on the beaches […]
Golden Spoons Review: Blue Cilantro
(CNS Foodie): This was my first time visiting Blue Cilantro; to be honest, the off-putting LED lighting throughout the dining room always kept me away. Thankfully, we were seated on the patio, which overlooks West Bay Road and has soft lighting and air conditioning. The only thing I would imagine to be a distraction would […]
Golden Spoons Review: Casa 43
(CNS Foodie): Nestled in a quaint little spot behind the Copper Falls building, Casa 43 offers authentic Mexican cuisine with flares of the island intertwined. The concept is pretty simple: tiny restaurant with reasonably priced, locally sourced products and the freshest margarita you can find on Grand Cayman. Maybe it’s the lime zest that puts […]
