Hyatt Vivid Grand Island Beach Club

We had a great day at the Beach Club yesterday!! Beautiful weather, nice pool, great service and delicious food. 
The Poke Tuna Nachos were definitely the highlight. 
 We returned to the resort at 4:30 for a mandatory rest period. At 7 PM we headed to dinner at La Lys which is the French restaurant at the resort. I started with the Tarragon Mussels and Angie had the Forest Salad. The mussels were in a Roquefort tarragon sauce which was really tasty. Angie also tried the French onion soup which was thicker than most but had a lot of flavor. I tried the onion quiche which was more like a souffle. It needed a bit more seasoning and more gruyere, but was better once I added some salt and pepper. For our mains, Angie has the beef tenderloin which was cooked medium. She only got one small carrot and a tiny asparagus stalk!! I had the baked ratatouille. I wasn't sure how this would be presented. What came out was really stunning!! Quite a talented use of the mandoline. And the stacks of thinly sliced eggplant, tomato and zucchini were carefully layered in a specific order. Tomato, zucchini and eggplant. Rinse and repeat!! All served on a pureed ratatouille and then baked. Such a great flavor. I am always so impressed by a chef who can bring out the best in vegetables.  

After dinner we headed to the main lobby for some karaoke. Some talented singers. I sang Angie's favorite "Mr Brightside" along with "Ring of Fire". 

 A fun evening activity. Afterwards we went to the rooftop bar for a cocktail and then headed back to the room. 

Today is our last full day at the resort. We ordered room service breakfast. Then we'll head to the rooftop pool. Lunch at the pool side ceviche restaurant. After music trivia at the pool and probably pool volleyball. Dinner will be at Oishii which is the Asian restaurant at the resort. It's located on the rooftop.
