Breakwater Cafe

After a long day of traveling, I couldn’t wait to sit down to a nice, relaxing dinner at my hotel. My iced tea was delivered with a basket containing two types of warm bread, one of which resembled an everything bagel (my fav). There were three different options for spreads: whipped butter, seasoned olive oil and another whipped butter that tasted like pumpkin. I love pumpkin anything, and this pleased me greatly.
I started with the lobster bisque, which was a special. The bisque arrived with a huge chunk of lobster in the center, but the soup itself looked as though it had been sitting for a few minutes, because the top was somewhat congealed, which did not make for the best presentation. Still, the bisque was delicious and very rich; I ate about half before pangs of guilt set in and I put down my spoon.
My Caesar with grilled chicken, dressing on the side, was perfectly sized. The dressing was obviously homemade, and I only needed a tiny bit for some flavor.
The service was a beat slow, but that also could have been because I was exhausted and ready for bed. The prices weren’t too bad, and there were many options with various price points, so there was something for everyone.
I returned to the Breakwater Café the following night for an after dinner drink. I could not decide between a pinot noir and a merlot, and the friendly bartender game me a healthy dose of each to aid in my decision. I decided on the merlot and received a very nice pour, which I promptly took to my room to drink during my bubble bath.

This is the more casual restaurant at our resort. We had a view of the golf course and the Bay beyond from our window table. Bread was served w/​two kinds of butter and an olive oil dip. I had a very good dirty martini, w/​3 olives. We shared popcorn shrimp and a salad. I ordered a steak, which came rare as ordered, accompanied by perfectly cooked asparagus w/​a few baby carrots. I had a choice of mashed potatoes or rice pilaf and chose the former, which were tasty. Alan had a steak salad and shared some of my potatoes and veggies. Tasty meal. We figured it would be good after Sunday brunch at the other restaurant!
