Hi AlpineGulch! I thought there would be more Conch on the menu since that’s the most popular thing here but plenty of fish and several lobster dishes available at the a la carte restaurants for no extra charge.
THANKS A LOT, I think I gained 25 lbs just watching this! Lol it looks delicious and quite a variety of dishes. Thank you very much for making this video.
Hi Colt! Glad you found it interesting. I really enjoyed the buffet food - especially that caraway bread at breakfast - sitting here in the Cook Islands and it’s raining and I could really go for some of that toast right now!
@@jayout05 I know right?! I really enjoyed having such a good selection to choose from. How was the beach when you were there & was the pool empty in the mornings for you too?
Hi Jayout! Isn't that great?! It was like that when we were there - had the whole pool to myself one morning for a few hours - so nice & peaceful. It was nice to see so many partaking in the crazy games once everyone woke up & came to the pool! Always a good laugh!
The best buffet or at least the biggest I have ever seen at any all inclusive is the one at the RIU palace Cabo San Lucas. Has been about 8 years since we were there so maybe it has changed since the place has gone through a renovation since !?
Hi SMG! They didn't have any specific sections for this per se but there are signs all over that request you speak to your server if you have any food allergies or restrictions & they'll sort you out!
Hello!! No I think most resorts use the fake crab stuff (pollock). Not sure what you mean by ‘fake sushi’? The rolls are made with real rice, nori, vegetables and/or tempura and sometimes mayonnaise (all of these ingredients are used in North America sushi).
Hi Lyn! Yes I know - my video footage of the jerk bar truly sucked. Especially since my husband ate there practically every day! He just loved the fresh grilled chicken and pork. It smelled amazing on the bbq too - very hard to resist! Definitely also get the rice and grilled veggies - the sautéed beans were delicious!
Wow that's huge and yummy looking. I'm surprised there aren't more shrimp offerings. Thanks for showing it all.

@@ChristineTurner I would say beach and pool was light like 50% . Only 1 day day beach had 3 or 4 rows of chairs

Hi RAS!! Yes they sure do know how to do buffets well! The one in Mazatlan and Aruba was huge too!
Gluten free selections?

Is the sushi real & is the crab in the crab salad real ? Or all imitation both sushi and crab ?

The jerk tour was only 2 seconds or did I miss it?
