I have had the opportunity to stop and eat at many different places during my last two British Virgin Island sailing charters with my grandparents. Each and every restaurant has a different feel and a wide variety of foods. |

One of my favorite places is Sydney 's Peace and Love on Jost Van Dyke. I enjoy this restaurant because I get to go behind the bar and make my own drinks. Last time I was there, I made the best virgin Pina Colada ---even my brother agreed! Also, when you are eating, you get to look out at the beautiful view of Little Harbour.

Without a doubt, Foxy's (also on Jost Van Dyke), has the best scenery. Any time you visit his restaurant, you are welcomed to leave behind any piece of clothing – usually underwear. Then you hang it on the ceiling for everyone to see. The first year, I left behind one of my PopPop's boxer shorts. My brother and I decorated it for his birthday. Last time, we gave Grandma a funny pair of thongs to leave behind. While you are waiting for your food, you can not only admire all of the hanging undergarments, but you can also kick back and relax in a hammock overlooking Great Harbour. |

If you are in the mood for a show, you should go to The Last Resort on Bellamy Cay near Beef Island . Not only do they have great entertainment and food, but you get to dine with a variety of animals. One time, I even got to eat with a donkey. My favorite part of The Last Resort is that when the chef is done cooking, he will come out and sing. |

The Willy T is a very unique experience. It is a big boat in the middle of the Bight off Norman Island where you can stop and eat. They grill your food on the back of the boat where you can watch them cook. If you are not into watching the cooks, you can go to the front of the boat where you can see people jump off the top right into the water. (Some people aren't even wearing tops!).
If you are in the mood for great drinks, I would go to Cooper Island . You can sit and eat while watching the beautiful sunset over the ocean. My favorite thing to eat on Cooper Island is the ribs. They are some of the best I have ever had. |

| Each island and each restaurant in the BVI has a different personality, and no two are the same. It would be very difficult for me to pick my favorite one. There are still many restaurants that I have not yet discovered, and I can't wait to try them. I hope my grandparents feel the same! |
