We had a delicious meal prepared by Chef Jeffrey. He was efficient and apparently already knew the kitchen (and BBQ) at the accommodation where we were staying, and he delivered a wonderful meal with attentive but not intrusive service, and answered all our questions about the various dishes. We are still talking about the tropical salad, as we'd never had anything like it. We had a great experience, capping off a wonderful stay. It was, as they say, "Chef's kiss." Would definitely book again.
