Kurt's Corner- new restaurant in Old Man Bay

Kurt's Corner - New local restaurant in Old Man Bay (Northside). Great news for those who are staying in Old Man Bay or Northside (or just driving by!). Named for The honorable Kurt Tibbetts (former head of government on Grand Cayman), Kurt's Corner is a great spot for a lunch or casual dinner. The dining area is a large roofed deck with canvas walls in case it rains. Very inviting and tidy, not just a jerk chicken stand or roadside eatery. Casual enough, but dinner by candlelight is nice.

Much lower priced than large restaurants and with a local touch by Miss Blossom (former head cook at Over The Edge restaurant down the road). I had dinner there tonight and the food was great. Fresh wahoo escovitch with some scotch bonnet sauce (my request) to heat it up. She serves great lemonade, but if you want a beer...the "barn" bar is right next door...and they have a package store attached called "Waterboyz". Very easy to find; right at the top of Frank Sound Road as you enter Old Man Bay. Call for take-out as well. 345-947-8899. Walking distance from "On The Bay" condos, Cayman Sands & Sand Castle villas.

The dive site "Babylon" is straight out from shore and the snorkeling is superb behind the house.

Kayak included as well as bikes; easy off-http://grandcaymanvillas.blogspot.com/ street parking and heavy landscaping with date palms lining the street. A real pleasant hideaway on Grand Cayman.
