Delicious Island Fare...


I happen to be working in Corpus Christi, Texas.  Of course, any travel is an opportunity to try some local cuisine.  And one of my co-workers, Bob Grow, is as adventurous as I am to try new eateries.  Tonight, we hit the jackpot -- Dragonfly Restaurant and Curacao Blues.  The restaurant is at 14701 South Padre Island Drive, Corpus Christi.  The owners describe their offerings as follows: "Dragonfly provides its guests with the finest international cuisine prepared daily by owner and culinary artist, Dominique Cordier.  From our savory Escargot to our Blue Lump Crab Cake dinner, our menu of unforgettable flavor profiles are guaranteed to satisfy any craving."  I ordered the Shrimp Skewer.  It consisted of seven large gulf shrimp broiled on a skewer, with "coconut Sambal sauce," served with coconut peanut rice, soy honey salad, sweet potato plantain cake.  It was spectacular, with flavors too subtle to adequately describe.  Highly recommended.
