Dick and I recently visited our friends, Dani and Jerry, in Carriacou*. I enjoy visiting, as living appears unhurried there.
Last year Dani teamed up with Kate, an excellent chef, to open a restaurant on the site of the old slipway at Tyrell Bay. I was curious and eager to see it and found it delightful. Its location is cool and commands a great view of the bay. The second day we were there for lunch, an old ferry broke its mooring and headed towards the ocean. Miraculously it missed all the yachts at anchor. From our table we were able to watch the rescue operation.
The restaurant’s furnishings are simple and comfortable. They created some specials pieces by incorporating old machinery from the slipway in the bar and some tables.
We ate several meals there - all were excellent. Chocoholics must try the Chocolate Torte. The menu changed daily offering variety to suit most. There were fish, meat and vegan options at 
very reasonable prices. So when you’re in the Grenadines, check out The Slipway.
*Carriacou is the largest island of the Grenadines, an archipelago in southern Caribbean. It is 13 square miles of hilly terrain with a population around 5,000 persons. It has several natural harbours, coral reefs and small offshore islets.
