A Trip to the Beach

US Weekly
December, 2000

By Melinda and Robert Blanchard

A Trip to the Beach is the Blanchards’ beguiling account of how they impulsively cashed in their Vermont specialty foods business and opened a high-end restaurant on the tiny Caribbean island of Anguilla. Despite all odds, they turned a beachfront shack into a thriving, celebrity-packed bar and grill. After reading their acclaimed recipes for crispy Thai snapper and banana cabanas, you’ll wish you could fly down for an exquisite dinner at Blanchards Restaurant. Reviewed by Francine Prose
