13. Extra Information Article
The buzz MUST see Hotspots (Article written by FODORS)
Granted, the BVI aren't a Caribbean culinary hotspot like St. Barths or Anguilla, but nor are they a backwater. Fresh seafood simply prepared so the flavors sing, traditional Creole-style sauces, cocktails at beach bars, and enchanting water views from practically every eatery make the chain an unsung foodie destination.
Tortola's sophisticated (and Fodor's Choice) Sugar Mill centers around the namesake 375-year-old ruin. This intimate hotel is a Fodor’s Choice and its restaurant, adorned with top-notch Caribbean artworks, is arguably the finest in the BVI. The owners, Jeff and Jinx Morgan, are longtime food & travel writers who had a regular column for Bon Appetit for years.
Hop the ferry from Beef Island to Scrub Island Resort, where Executive Chef Davide Pugliese turns out brilliant juxtapositions of taste and texture, like vanilla-kissed grouper poached in coconut milk. The resort's more casual Tierra! Tierra! offers innovative Caribbean takes on continental classics, such as island lasagna with pumpkin and braised Angus short ribs in tamarind BBQ sauce.
The Rock Cafe on Virgin Gorda is a gem, beautifully situated in the treetops and boulders of The Baths.
It's the perfect spot to have a drink before or after dinner, enjoy the Italian cuisine (surprisingly tasty pizzas) amid candlelit tables, the crashing waves and waterfalls providing percussive accompaniment.
For a different antidote to civilization, Bomba's Surfside Shack is a very colorful Tortola beach bar, filled with character and characters.
In 1976, a shipwright nicknamed Bomba opened a small bar, with very little money or materials. Friends dropped off odds and ends they couldn't use, like half-finished bottles of booze. The 'end' result is an ever-changing, continually expanding collage of trash. It's a gloriously makeshift and raunchy jumble of junk, and tradition dictates that you must leave something behind, which is why you'll discover everything from bras and boxers to business cards.
Over on Jost, White Bay is perennially rated among the Caribbean's loveliest strands of beach.
But its real attraction is the Soggy Dollar Bar, another Caribbean classic, home of the original painkiller cocktail. The bar earned its moniker because the only access is via water; sodden sailors would hand over drenched dollar bills.*
