"I loved this book, I give it a 4.5! It is the true story of a couple that sells their company and moves to an island called Anguilla. They open a restaurant and go through good times and bad while making great friends along the way. They learn to relax and live on "Island time"."
"I love reading "island" books. This one was a little different in that the couple moved to the islands for the purpose of starting their own restaurant. Easy read."
"A vivid book best to read on the beach right before a wonderful meal. If you choose to read this any other time, you will just be insanely jealous of the Blanchards who chronicle the opening of their restaurant in Anguilla. Vivid descriptions of the food, setting, and emotions involved."
"Another inspirational autobiography about a couple that moves from Vermont to the tiny Caribbean island of Anguilla to open a restaurant. It is all about their trials and obstacles while trying to get materials and ingredients, battling hurricanes and learning to live on island time."
