An Unforgettable Experience at Eagle Beach
Last night, I had the absolute pleasure of experiencing the Dining Under the Stars menu at Passions, and it was nothing short of magical. From the moment I stepped onto the soft sand, I was embraced by the warm glow of torchlight, the gentle ocean breeze, and the soothing melody of waves lapping against the shore. It was the kind of setting that instantly makes you slow down, breathe a little deeper, and savor the moment.
A Well-Curated Three-Course Menu
The three-course menu, priced at just $53 per person, was thoughtfully designed to delight the senses. Choosing between the dishes was almost impossible—they all sounded incredible. I started with the Tuna Tataki, a beautifully seared dish that practically melted in my mouth. The fresh wakame, crisp cucumber, and delicate soy dressing added the perfect balance of flavors. For my main course, I couldn’t resist the Ocean & Earth Duo—a tender chicken breast paired with succulent lobster medallions, drizzled with a rich red wine sauce. Each bite was a perfect harmony of flavors, made even better by the creamy mashed potatoes on the side.
And then, dessert. A homemade creation that was as stunning to look at as it was to eat. Sweet, indulgent, and the perfect way to end the meal. The optional wine pairing elevated every course, and the Kiwi Cuvée Pinot Noir was a standout, bringing out the best in my entrée.
Dining with a View Under the Stars
But what truly made the night unforgettable was the setting itself. There’s something about dining with your toes in the sand, under a canopy of stars, with the sound of the ocean in the background, that makes every bite more flavorful and every moment more special. The impeccable service, the beautifully plated dishes, and the undeniable romance of it all made this an experience I’ll cherish for a long time.
