When I saw the outside of Bahama Breeze, it looked like a large building that you would find in Hawaii. This included what looked like a straw roof with a wood side with the occasional lamp. On the inside, though, it looked like a island museum! There were little wooden fish, small paintings, fire burned lamps, and a nice waiting room. There was also a open kitchen, fish lamps, and even tables connected to the walls!
While we were waiting for our table to be prepared, another blogger (and his guest) came in. His blog's name was Baltimore Bistros and Beer. Though I didn't know it until later.
When we were seated, the managers told us about what we were going to taste, what alcohol there was, and how thankful they were that they had some people there. They even gave us each a shirt and a hula doll! After that, we were left so that we could talk.
On the menu, there were baby back ribs, grilled tenderloin salad, chicken tortilla soup, and seafood paella. There were also some special cocktails, which were the Zombie, the Dark 'n' Stormy, and the Havana Hotel Special. There was also a kids menu, which consisted of crispy chicken tenders, fresh mini hamburgers, and grilled chicken breast. Finally, there were lots of appetizers, such as Tostones with Chicken, Jamaican Wings, Roasted Cuban Bread, and Firecracker Shrimp.
First came the alcohol, which I was too young to have, so my Aunt Sarah will handle explaining them:
"I sampled 2 cocktails that will be debuting at Bahamas Breeze on February 4th.
The first one was called Daisy de Santiago looked like a Mojito but surprisingly it was nothing like it. It was very herbal and spicy. It was not sweet at all. One of the ingredients is chartreuse liqueur and I think that is what made this a unique drink.
The second one was called the Yaka Hula Hickey Dula. It was colorful, tropical and sweet. Dark rum, 151 and rum soaked pineapple were some of the ingredients in this drink. If you like fruity and sweet you will like this.
So my favorite was the Yaka Hula Hickey Dula. I am fruity sweet drink person so this would be my pick to drink again."
Then we had the food. There was a lot of stuff there! There was Coconut Shrimp, Onion Rings, Warm Goat Cheese with Flatbread crisps, Beef Empanadas, Warm Spinach dip with Island chips, Jamaican Chicken Wings, Pulled Pork Sliders, and Chicken Empanadas.
Everything was fantastic! I first tried the goat cheese. It was very creamy, and it also had some tomatoes in it. Then, I had a Pulled Pork Slider. It was cheesy, juicy, and it was crunchy, since it came with pickles. Next, I had a Chicken Wing. It was juicy, and it was kind of spicy, too. Then, I had some of the Onion Rings, which is a new menu item. They were juicy as well, but in a different way. They also had some coconut on them, which made them stand out from other onion rings I've had. Finally, I tried some Coconut Shrimp. They were spicy, and also had a coconut blast, too. I would definitely get the Onion Rings again and the Warm Goat Cheese with Flatbread crisps.
My Aunt Sarah said, "Of the food we were served my favorite was the Chicken Empanadas. They were served with black bean and corn salsa and an aioli. As much as liked the empanadas I loved the citrus-mustard sauce that came with coconut shrimp and crispy onion rings. It was like a Caribbean honey mustard."
I give this place ***** stars for food and **** stars for kid friendliness. The reason why I gave **** stars for kid friendly is because they had a menu with some activities on it.Also, they had a open kitchen, so people could see the food being made. They also had the music turned up so one family wouldn't disturb another family if they had loud kids.
I would thank my Aunt Sarah for bringing me to this really cool place. Well, that's all. Bye!
