Peanut Butter Biscuit recipe – an oldie from the 1950s or before – never fails to please. Sometimes I get the munchies for sweet crunchy biscuits. I am not that much of a lover of bought biscuits/cookies. (The few I do like are seldom in the house because they are too easy to nibble on…
Sol e Luna
Sol e Luna always satisfies! Sol e Luna was a favourite a couple years ago. It was a place we went to for very special occasions. Then, as happens, we did not go for awhile and in the mean time we had heard it had changed hands. With so many other restaurants to try we…
Spiga Restaurant SXM
Spiga = Deliciousness When folk talk about going out to dine and Spiga is mentioned you hear many say “Be still, my beating heart!” This restaurant is very popular.

Emilio’s – Dining in style

Amsterdam Cheese
Amsterdam Cheese and Wine evening Once again we had a really fun evening at the iconic cheese house near the harbour in Philipsburg.
