There is that person in me that always wants to find those off the beaten path restaurants. So while visiting our children 2 weeks ago I did just that. The fortunate part is that our boys are foodies and love to eat and most of all explore. So every day we would venture in different directions, and that is easy to do in LA!!!
As soon as I got there we decide the flavors we want to experience and off course top of the list was Port Royal in Santa Monica. As soon as you approach the restaurant, located in the loft building area that house many studios, your eyes catch the brightly painted stucco building, a welcoming site and no pretenses. Zoe is right there greeting you with wide open harms and best of all her smile. Soon your attention is directed to the aromas, close your eyes, listen to the music and yes you are in Jamaica or at least just for now. It is my second time there and the first time we talked about how could we get fresh goat meat to her from Wisconsin where we have lot of goat cheese makers always looking for venues for their animals.
As you could guess, yes I had her goat meat stew, and spicy yes, but agreeably they can make as hot or as mild as you wish. This time around I had the citrus fish delicious and Oh I have to mention the large helping of plantains, Oh yum! She has acquire quiet a following just like our sons who loves to bring the "heat on" just a notch each time!
She loves to present us with her red velvet cake, as she is the baker !!!!! very good and each slice is enough for 2 or more!!!!
