We tried Nice restaurant yesterday. It’s. Located same end of Grand Case Blvd where Le Pressoir is. From parking lot you cross the little bridge and it’s just after. The place used to be a seafood restaurant ..something de la Mer...

We sat overlooking Grand Case Beach. Small, very few tables. Owner is from Nice, France ( hence the name). And has brought the foods of Cote d’Azure to SXM . They serve tapas and full entrees. We started with cod fritters. Chuck full of cod with very little filler.. We both decided on the beef stew. The plate came with a small covered pot of vegetables and beef that was delicious, accompanied with tagliatelle on this plate.

Their offerings were: cod aioli, fried sardines, chicken, salmon. Cannot remember it all. If we had another week to stay we would definitely go back. They are open for lunch until 3 then 5:30 for dinner.

Another lazy day. Maid woke us then we dragged our feet to lanai for coffee, brief hello to our new neighbors in #14 who didn’t really say hello just asked us how many people we were 2 or 4. Strange, I thought, had we been making noise? Come to find out they are two couples and had only 3 loungers in front of their unit.

We welcomed them, said take a chaise no problem, then started to tell them that traffic may be a problem on Friday because of the Jump Up. Hubby was cut short mid speech. Other party just grunted and walked away. Geese just trying to be helpful.

We were so full from our great lunch that we had no dinner at all. But at 6pm we were a bit tempted because we could smell cooking steak from next door.

11pm some plane was reving up and doing wheelies on the tarmac . Lasted about 15 minutes not sure what that was about. It was first time we e heard planes after 9 pm.

So ends another day in paradise.
