Yesterday we popped out for lunch to a fish sandwich stand up the road.  We shared a sandwich since we had a large dinner planned.  The local fish today was snapper.

After husband was done working for the day, we took the car to the next beach up the street for a quick snorkel before it got too dark.  This is Church Bay

It was a little stirred up, but there were lots of fish.  Here are a couple.  Orange stoplight parrotfish

Our dinner was at Fourways, which is probably the most traditional restaurant on the island. It's in an old farmhouse building and features a large menu with lots of flambeed items, a live piano player, etc.  Here's one side of the interior before it filled up

And the massive menu.  Appetizers

Classic dishes. The veal seemed to be the most popular, and it is flambeed table side.  I also saw some steaks being flambeed.

There's even a vegan menu

Amuse bouche.  Seared tuna with mango sauce and beetroot

Husband chose foie gras for his appetizer

I had the tuna tartare

Husband ordered a half bottle of wine for his dinner.  They did the whole candle thing

I had the catch of the day, which was wahoo. This is an example of Bermudian sweet and savory that I do not like.  Bermuda restaurants often serve banana with their fish.  I have tried it many times, and really do not like banana with fish.  It's easy enough to push to the side though.

Husband had beef wellington.  He said it was perfectly cooked.

Dessert.  They are famous for their souffles

I chose the lemon, and it was much better than the one we shared at Tom Moore's Tavern the other night.
