The best part of island life is seafood! I grew up in a fishing family and now we have a seafood market so I am truly living an island life. My cooking is driven by the weather and seasons, for example winter is mackerel and tuna, summer is shrimp and clams. My cooking is majority seafood and vegetables but you will find a few carnivore friendly recipes for those in your party who may not enjoy fruits of the ocean.
