The Food
It was night when we arrived. It should have been day time, but the delays with the landing held kept us until after dark. We rode by taxi halfway to the resort we stayed in, then for the other half we loaded up into small boats to take us the rest of the way to the resort because it was only accessible by water. As our boats pulled into the dock we were greeted by an older couple, the owners of the resort, and their dogs. They invited us to the dining room, which was just a large cabana with a kitchen in the water just off the shore. There we met Dalia, a cook greater than the best cook you can possibly imagine. The first night we had wahoo covered in a coconut cream sauce, that was by far the best food Ihave ever eaten in my entire life! Some of the other dishes we had for dinner were wahoo again with another kind of sauce, shrimp and chicken kabobs, lasagna, barbecue chicken, a homemade soup, and on the very last night we had a huge buffet with all types of fish, chicken, and other hor derves. The best meal that we had on the trip, and consequently in my entire life, was by far the soup. In it was shrimp, chicken, scallops, lobster, crab, and vegetables. The broth by itself was to die for, mixing sweet, salty,and tangy flavors all into one glorious blend! And on top of that it had all of those different ingredients to make it that much better! Overall, I look at this trip as both wonderful and wonderfully sad. It gave me a chance to eat the best food I will ever eat in my entire life, but I will never be able to taste it again.
