West Bay Food Festival

Who could imagine going to a beautiful beach island and finding amazing cupcakes and specialty cakes? Usually, there are beach burgers and fries, nachos, quesadillas, and beach side food.  It was my lucky day as I came on the 5th annual West Bay food festival.  This was some of the best food I had on the island and it was a great way to taste specialty dishes.  For example, the conch soup is a specialty soup on the island with conchs(a type of fish), lobster, and broth. Each person makes it their own way and adds what they want according to my local BFF. 

From the infinity hotel to the other side of the beach, they had booths with different selections.  All you had to do was buy 20 tickets for $20. With the prices in West Bay, I'm surprised it was not higher. In the name of seafood, it really didn't matter to me.


                           


Off I went first trying Coconut shrimp, Conch soup, lobster tails, crab cake-ran out of tickets-refill, crab ceviche, carrot cake cupcake desert, and slice of banana bread(for later).  Please keep in mind these are not full servings and are portioned out according to type of item and price.  All of it was great, but that Carrot cupcake threw it all over the top.  After this food explosion in my stomach, I went to play volleyball in an attempt to work it off. That lasted for five minutes and then I sat on the beach chair like a beach whale. I needed to let my stomach rest. That lasted for 5 minutes and then we all went for a swim.  And that was what I needed to cool down and feel better. 
                             



Thank you nice people for the amazing seafood and hope this festival keeps going for the sake of the hungry tourists;)
