    We stayed en premise for dinner last night - and how glad we were. A couple drinks on the balcony and then we took a partially demolished bottle of Prosecco and the Cote de Rhone we bought at the fancy bottle o. Initially the man mentioned corkage and as it was reasonable we said no worries. We had the Rhone in the fridge in the room and they brought an ice bucket- the wine temperature in the glass was perfect, much better than the air temperature. Well - did we eat well! Started with chicken satay that was so uniquely flavoured. Not the expected peanut curry sauce but beguilingly Thai. The cucumber sambal was amazing. We then had steamed snapper served deboned and a squid dish. Both were outstanding and again, uniquely flavoured from the expected flavours. The 2 wines went extremely well, and as an added bonus when the bill came he said he would not charge us the corkage!
    This morning Kerry missed out on her breakfast treats but was happy with very flavoursome fruit (bananas you would cross town for). I skipped the omelette in favour of some fried eggs - I had these before and they burst with rich flavour. Then to the beach for a carbon copy of yesterday - the difference today Kerry has returned to the beach massage person. We walked into the village for iced coffee and tea then back to the beach. Lunch was the same normal as a) we cannot fault them and b) it is our last lunch 😢
    Tonight we plan to try the place that has been closed and a beach cocktail on the way.
