  • Are you curious what the locals eat in St. Thomas, USVI? Yea, we were, too. So rented a car and drove all over the island to try some of the best local foods this tropical paradise has to offer. From a traditional snack called a Johnny Cake served with the greatest view in the world to a dive bar that proudly proclaims to be the "best parking lot bar in the world", we have something for everyone. And because it's okay to be a tourist, we also hit up the top attraction in the US Virgin Islands, the world famous Mountain Top, for a stellar banana daiquiri while overlooking the beautiful Magens Bay. Come join us fellow foodies and beach-lovers! #stthomas #usvirginislands #foodie

    Remembering Mountain Top in the 70's. Only the bar at that time. Banana Daqri's were awesome. Glad to see there still good.

      The daiquiris are definitely still good! We figured they wouldn’t be good because it’s such a touristy spot but were pleasantly surprised when we could taste a healthy amount of rum in it 🍹

    Great video, that drive up is very scary but great views. Driving there in general is pretty sketchy overall but also kind of fun. I have the best hole in the wall breakfast spot close to red hook.

    • @micalebgoeswest
      @micalebgoeswest  Před 8 měsíci

      That drive up was so scary! However, it was absolutely worth it. Those views down are just incredible. What’s the name of the hole in the wall breakfast spot in Red Hook? Those are our favorite kinds of places! And thanks so much for watching!

    • @nmilbridge7154

    You guys are always finding the good places. Haha we had some scary drives in our trip to st Lucia last year. It was only one lane and very bumpy. Banana drinks are the best. So jealous! What a view! Are you guys members of maragaritaville or Wyndham? There is nothing better the food and drink on the water. Cheers to great food video! Oh that water at the end! 🤙🤙🏝️🏝️

    • @micalebgoeswest
      @micalebgoeswest  Před rokem +1

      We don’t have a lot of talents, but we are proud of our ability to find good food! It sounds like your St. Lucia drives were very similar to our St. Thomas one. That driving is scary but worth it. We are members of a vacation membership that is affiliated with Wyndham so we end up using their properties quite a bit. We really love the ones we have tried so far. Thanks so much for watching!

    how far was the daiquiri place from margaritaville? This video is great btw!

    • @micalebgoeswest
      @micalebgoeswest  Před 4 měsíci +1

      We are so happy you enjoyed it!
      The Mountain Top banana daiquiri place is about a 20 minutes drive west of Margaritaville Resort. We rented a car when we were there, but there were plenty of taxis around the island so it shouldn’t be hard to get one for the round trip. The road up that mountain is equal parts fun and terrifying to drive 😀

    Rivers looks so happy, she is soo cutie.🏖🍼☺The food looked amazing. Did you try the beef pate, made with the same dough but filled with meat or saltfish?

    • @micalebgoeswest
      @micalebgoeswest  Před rokem

      Well thank you so much! It was so fun to watch her at her first beach. She loved it! We did not try the beef pate and now i feel like we missed out. We will have to add that to the list for next time! Thanks so much for sharing

    Thx for your video 😎 I will visit the Banana Daquari up that steep Mt
    Yikes on April 17th.
    Umm is the Meagans Bar Grill at the bottom of the mountain? Same area? I may even try The Shoreline Bar &Grill? Once again Thx for your video!

    • @micalebgoeswest
      @micalebgoeswest  Před měsícem +1

      That mountain is steep so just prepare yourself for the drive, but the daiquiri and view is so worth it 😀. The grill at Magens Bay is located all the way at the bottom, so it’s not the same area as the Mountain Top but it’s not a long drive. The food at the grill was really good and they also had a full bar. And we loved the Shoreline so we hope you get a chance to go! It’s a hidden gem. We really appreciate you watching and wish you a wonderful trip!

      We stayed at the Margaritaville Vacation Club Resort by Wyndham and we loved it. But there are so many options on the island. We liked the Margaritaville because it was family friendly, beachfront, and has 2 great pools. I’ve included the link to our Margaritaville review if that helps. We hope you have a wonderful trip!
