Fat Turtle at Yacht Haven Grande
The Fat Turtle is one of the most fun restaurants I’ve ever been to. The main conversation piece is the “bubble wall” of drinks. There is definitely a “party that never ends” energy at Fat Turtle. The portions are huge “family-style” so be prepared to share. I loved the Cornmeal Fried Oysters with Spicy Peanuts and a Creamy Green Onion Dressing. We decided to order two entrees (Mango & Ginger Grilled Shrimp with Caribbean slaw and Balsamic and Honey rubbed skirt steak with bourbon mashed sweet potatoes and a saute of fennel, corn and spinach). Of course there was plenty leftover to take back to our villa and enjoy again later!
Now I’m not sure that I could properly convey, the unique atmosphere at Fat Turtle, but I figured the best way would be to post their drink menu….it says it all.
