Turtle Bay

Hey guys! Today was my cousins 19th birthday so me, my mum, nan and auntie all took her out for a meal and a few cocktails! We went to Turtle Bay, a place specialising in Caribbean food. I have to say I'm not normally one for spicy food at all, I can barely eat chilli flavoured crisps but I really love this place!

This is what is called a 'light bite' in Turtle Bay, and it only cost £6.85! I went for The Jerk Pulled Pork Wrap with a side of Sweet Potato Fries and Caribbean 'slaw. Their sweet potato fries are the best thing I've ever tasted, I've tried to make them at home so many times but I just can't get them nice and crispy like they do!

Cocktail number 1 is something they call a Rum Runner - it consisted of rum (obviously!) raspberry and banana liquer, pineapple juice and grenadine. Perfect for those who like something a bit fruity!

 The second was called a Marley Mojito (see what they did there?!) This one wasn't particularly my favourite but it again had rum, mint, orange juice and few other things I cant quite remember!

Finally I tried the Vanilla and Passion Fruit Mojito - this one was a lot nicer but Rum Runner is definitely still my favourite! To be honest I think what put me off the Mojito's was the mint because I'm not too fond of it and it was quite strong, but it was still a really nice drink - and did I mention all their cocktails are 2-4-1 before 7pm?! And then again after 10pm! Turtle Bay is definitely worth a try if you're around the Southampton area!
