<p>The name is definitely an ode to the
explorer Christopher Columbus, but there is nothing mistaken about this
restaurant. </p>

<p>Located at the Hermosa Cove in St. Ann, even
the architecture was deliberate in its appearance – seemingly taking a step
back in time to a time of pirates and castles.</p>

<p>Wooden floors and a breath-taking view of
the Caribbean Sea is enough to melt all the worries of this modern life away. </p>

<p>My first visit was on a whim and initially
with the assistance of Google Maps (bad idea). </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>But, after calling the office for
directions finding the neatly tucked away oasis was my true mission for the
day. </p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>When you get to the security gate you will
be asked your purpose for visit, so it makes sense to call ahead and let them
know you are coming by. It just makes things easier.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Once you step in the dining area, the
intoxicating of fresh bread and coffee is clearly a ploy to make you hungry.
Hats off to Christophers (neat trick).</p>

<p>I just wanted to see the place and maybe
have a cocktail. However, my stomach twisted my arm and the result was cocktails,
soup and a beautiful entree. </p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Truthfully, my ultimate test for any bar or
restaurant to ‘walk the walk’ that the decor and appearance talks, is a 'Pina
Colada'. Yes, you heard me. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Although the ingredients are simple enough
it is one of those drinks that if fresh elements aren't added to will taste
like a mass-produced canned drink. I definitely expect that from a nice
establishment. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>I'm happy to report that the bar-tender did a good job and made me two Pina Coladas.</p>
