Bay House

Frommer's Review

This is an intimate dining room linked with family-owned hotel set in a garden on a hillside, a 10-minute walk uphill from the beach at Dickenson Bay. Surrounded by lattices and potted plants, it is an open-sided room with sweeping views of the jagged coastline. Lunch consists of freshly made salads, stuffed baguette sandwiches, and grills. The kitchen's culinary flair is more obvious at nighttime, when meals might begin with a salad of baby shrimp with grapefruit segments and truffle oil, or fresh chicken livers flambéed with brandy. Main dinner courses feature grilled fish; fresh local lobster that's either grilled and served with lime-and-garlic sauce, or prepared thermidor style. Steaks are served in a light soy sauce with braised Chinese cabbage. For vegetarians there's a platter piled high with grilled Provençal-style vegetables.
