Darn Delicious; Garlic Mashed Potato.

Darn Delicious; Garlic Mashed Potato. My dad never messed around when it came to sides for his great roasts prime of beef. This is how he taught me to make garlic mash potato. It became my signature way of getting a great tasting starch on to a plate that stood up with whatever it was sided with. … A good helping of mashed potatoes topped with a tasty beef gravy carried a lot of cooks through a 14 hour standing in one spot all day short order cooking. Not too many people that I know, don’t like mashed potato and especially when they are garlic mashed! Great...

Dover Beach Barbados

My stay at Infinity on the Beach Christ Church St. Lawrence Gap was most excellent. Had lots of plans to get out and explore but found that Dover Beach had everything one could ask for while on a Caribbean holiday. The food and drink at Sea Fans kept me coming back for more.

I found that the food court had so many good places to try island cuisine and experience some cou-cou, fire roasted bread fruit, rice and peas with goat, lamb stew, fried flying fish or grilled yellow fin, snapper, mahi-mahi, dorado and fish cakes. The...
