Hard Rock Cafe opens doors in Gulf City Mall - Trinidad

 It's a rainy Thursday evening in the height of the Christmas season after a long hard day of working in Port of Spain,
Trini Limers Crew, a group of loosely banded Food and Drink Connoisseurs  headed to the nation's Industrial Capital of San Fernando, more specifically To the new Hard Rock Cafe in Gulf City Mall.
Hard Rock Cafe entrance is located near the North East Entrance to Gulf City Mall, close to the Gulf View Link road and can be accessed by the Sir Solomon Hochoy Highway via the Golconda Interchange and Connector road and then down from the Cross Crossing Interchange on to the South Trunk road and then turn right into Gulf City Avenue.

The car park was filled to capacity and as we entered Hard Rock Cafe to Starship's "We built this city on rock and roll" we were greeted by a group of ever helpful and happy waitresses who could be starlets themselves in a musical group.

 We were seated and immediately our waitress was ready to take our order.
Five minutes later after looking over the Menu and taking in the ambiance of the group of steel pan looking ornaments on the ceiling  we were surprised that the 65,000 persons retrenched from the oil and gas industries had not dampened anyone's spirit and love for rock and roll music and Hard Rock Cafe was filled to capacity with the exception of the VIP area with a lone feller staring down at his cellphone.
The music is mostly American with a mix of British Rock music with Local Trinidadian Rock Musicians in their line up for example Shockwave on the 14th of December 2019, Calypso and Chutney music genres are being featured also.

 The drinks and mixed drinks are reasonably priced however the Food menu is very upscale especially the entrees and main courses which feature a mix of American,Tex Mex and Caribbean BBQ, There are options for Rib eye steak lovers, Sea Food lovers and in the same breath Vegetarians with numerous salads.
The food is very tasty and the promise of using local spices was kept.
All in all it was a very pleasant experience and the staff were warm and friendly.

Grill on The Hill and Hole in the Wall eatery recommendations

 It is Christmas season and everyone is shopping and Trini Limers Crew headed to what the  girls referred to as their favourite "Hole in the wall" restaurants in Trinidad and Tobago, Grill on The Hill in Marabella is one such place, That is in the northern part of the City of San Fernando on the Southern Main Road just before the Marabella Police Station. We were warmly greeted by a kind Indo -Trinidadian man in a well - dressed in traditional Muslim wear  suit and quickly seated and greeted by a well groomed polite and well spoken Afro -Trinidadian youthful waiter who laid out the cutlery for us all, Mind you Trinidad and Tobago as little islands as it is to the Metropole larger nations can still boast a diversity and interracial harmony found no where else in the world. Grill on the Hill restaurant offers a  diverse mix menu and you will find your favourites here with the exception of a curry .  The idle banter before our long wait, but worth it for the ...

  Savannah Belle Bouquet Company, Upper floor, Gulf City Mall, La Romain. For the young and young at heart couples that may still be liming each other before settling down a recommended spot is the Savannah Belle Bouquet Company for the romantic type there is floral arrangements and perfumed oils for the limer that you are liming at the entrance to the cafe. The cafe it self has a very homely vibe and gives off a welcoming French almost Parisian Patisserie and their cakes are nothing short of enchanting. Each slice is a delicate masterpiece, a symphony of textures and flavors, crafted with the finest ingredients. The sponge is ethereal—light, airy, and melt-in-your-mouth tender, like a whisper of sweetness that lingers.  There's a subtle elegance to every detail: a dusting of powdered sugar that glistens like snow, the gleam of glossy fruit glazes that catch the light, and the gentle curve of a perfectly piped swirl. Each bite is a delicate harmony of flavor—smooth vanilla, t...
