Always Smiles at Porter's

There are always plenty of smiles at Porter's Island Thyme on Salt Cay, Turks & Caicos.

Be it at Poker Night, Pizza Night, Wing Night, Spontaneous Karaoke or for that meal you won't forget on Salt Cay.

We are hard at work getting ready for the upcoming Season!  

New furniture has arrived for the Bar, the Flamingo Terrace is complete and our new demonstration kitchen is almost finished...it is not to early to sign up for Lolli's cooking classes when you make your plans to come to visit Salt Cay!

New Furniture in the Bar at Porter's Island Thyme

The Flamingo Terrace on Salt Cay, Turks & Caicos is perfect for lunch or that sun-downer as the sun sets over the salinas.

Salt Cay Key Lime Pie

I am a purest when it comes to Key Lime Pie! 

I was raised in the Southern tradition where pies should have a light a flaky crust and be topped with meringue.  

The best I have ever eaten!

With that said I have just had one of the best, if not the best, key lime pies I have ever eaten...in a hole in the wall restaurant in central Florida.  

Contrary to my traditional upbringing this pie has a almond graham cracker crust and is made with heavy whipping cream...yes the real thing and not the nondairy whipped topping that many recipes use.

What can I say?  Thanks for sharing the recipe!

Be one of the first to try this delicious pie at Porter's Island Thyme on Salt Cay.

The Perfect Beach: Salt Cay

People are always asking:  

What I do when I am not at Porter's Island Thyme on Salt Cay in the Turks & Caicos?

Let me assure you there are not enough hours in the day...checking out the latest food trends, meeting with suppliers, sampling new wines and liquors to bring to Salt Cay.  Buying goods worldwide...doing business in multiple time zones to bring something new and different to Salt Cay for your enjoyment!

Returning from the Palm Beaches today where I was meeting with a new wholesaler I noticed a Corona truck with a sign saying:  

Castaway - Salt Cay

"Find the Perfect Beach" with a picture of bottle of Corona...bet they don't know about  North Beach on Salt Cay.

Salt Cay an Adventure of a Lifetime!

Humpback whales on their annual migration!

We manage a full range of properties on Salt Cay...for every taste and budget.  Key dates in season are filling up for season.  We anticipate the whale watching season will be even better than last year.

Experience Salt Cay!

Contact Haidee at haidee127@gmail.com for reservations and leave the planning to us!

All Good Things Must Come to an End!

Even on Salt Cay all good things must come to an end.

Many have visited the Zoo, become Zoo Keepers, got their name on the Wall of Fame, become Zoologists or maybe even Veterinarians.  Entry into the Zoo at Porter's Island Thyme on Salt Cay has always been free, but due to rising costs we have had to make some changes.

The "WOLF" is still alive and well on Salt Cay!

Now to enter the Zoo you will need to purchase a $10 entry  ticket.  But what a souvenir the ticket will make or the stories one can tell! Or buy some for your friends...they make the perfect gift for someone who has everything.

Be the first to do the Flamingo on the "Flamingo Terrace" at Porter's 

Once you have entered the Zoo the fun begins....not only is there "wolf" we also have lots of new exotic animals...and the awards have only gotten better!

Is this the "CREATURE" of days of Olde??

Just stop in at Porter's Island Thyme on Salt Cay, purchase you entry ticket and let the good times roll!

Please remember drink responsibly.

Work in the bar/dining room is complete with new bar stools...designed to prevent "backward flips."

New chairs that will prevent the "backward flip"  at the main bar.

The demonstration kitchen in the Coconut Room is waiting for tile for the cabinets.  Cabinet doors and drawers are being made, the sinks have been installed along with the commercial stove with two convection ovens which is ready to go.

New cabinets ready for the tile.

The Flamingo Terrace overlooking the salinas is complete, but we are still working on the new decking that approaches the Flamingo Terrace.  It should be finished in the next week or so.
