Dining

Blue by Eric Ripert is both a culinary journey into the deep transparent Caribbean waters and a fine dining discovery of seafood.

Fish is elevated from the perfect to the sublime when every activity in the kitchen centers on maximizing the promise of its quality and freshness. Only the finest olive oils and most delicate herb-infused flavorings are allowed to mingle with fish that has traveled from boat to plate inside 24 hours.

Perwinkle by Eric Ripert named for both the bluish color and the tiny mollusk that lives on land but must stay very near to the sea in order to thrive, Periwinkle by Eric Ripert pays homage to the pleasures of simply prepared seafood.

Recalling Ripert's Andorran and Provençale heritage, the palette of this al fresco grill is shaped by subtle flavorings and creative pairings.

The menu includes "Moules Mariniere", Mussels and Chorizo Steamed in White Wine and Herbs, Watermelon Salad with Buffalo Mozzarella, Chile Oil and Basil and Coconut Marinated Shrimp "Ceviche" with Mango, Fresh Chiles and Herbs.

Periwinkle offers inventive grill selections. Yellowfin tuna can be accented with a Mango Mostarda and accompanied by Tomato Provencal. A Skirt Steak with White Truffle Aioli is grounded by Parmesan French Fries.

Desserts at Periwinkle epitomize the restaurant's culinary creativity. A Fried Banana "Tempura" is presented with Chocolate, Caramel and Citrus Dipping Sauces. Coconut Tapioca is topped with Passion Fruit Sorbet and Basil Syrup.

7 Prime Cuts & Sunsets is home to the Caribbean's finest steaks. The menu at 7 Prime Cuts & Sunsets is underscored with island influences, proving that "steak and potatoes" is anything but expected with seven selections in every category.

Offering only the highest quality cuts, the chefs of 7 Prime Cuts and Sunsets perfectly season them with a selection of sea salts from either the sea surrounding Cayman or international waters.

Creative starches range from Wasabi Mashed Potatoes to traditional Caribbean Peas & Rice to Sting Ray Beer Battered Onion Rings. Seafood lovers need not abstain as they have a selection local catches and perfectly matched delicate sauces.

Caribbean elegance reigns in the Silver Palm Lounge, named for the Cayman Islands' national tree, the silver thatch palm.

Silver Palm offers a broad range of culinary experiences. Guests can enjoy light fare from citrus conch salad to international caviars to foie gras infused with Cuban rum.

Weekends, Silver Palm hosts a traditional tea to honor the Cayman Islands' status as a British Overseas Protected Territory.

To the right of the lounge, the Silver Palm Wine Bar features fine champagnes, a couvenet with an extensive selection of 56 wines by the glass and a martini luge that dramatically dispenses perfectly chilled cocktails.

The ladies and gentlemen of Silver Palm can make recommendations of rare vintages complemented by a card highlighting the complex features of the grape.

At the opposite end of Silver Palm, a menu of silver-themed cocktails enlivens the relaxing Silver Palm Bar. Featuring a humidor stocked with hand-rolled Cuban cigars and a smoking terrace that faces northeast towards Havana, Silver Palm pays homage to all the sensory pleasures of the western Caribbean.

Golf

One of the most eagerly anticipated features at The Ritz-Carlton, Grand Cayman is the Greg Norman golf course, Blue Tip. Open only to guests and Residence owners of The Ritz-Carlton, Grand Cayman, Blue Tip will deliver fiercely on its shark pedigree.

Sure to be dubbed a "nine-hole Caribbean monster," the course will rouse golfers with its five long Par Fours into the Caribbean trade winds, which can make a 470-yard hole play like 600.

The 3,515-yard, par 36 course offers five sets of tees for varied play. Blue Tip features five long Par Fours and a 600 yard Par Five. Water comes into play on eight out of nine holes. Carved along a serpentine waterway with sweeping views of the North Sound, Blue Tip at The
Ritz-Carlton, Grand Cayman is the first course to be constructed on the island in 10 years.

Blue Tip enhances the guest experience with its Golf Caddie Concierge Program. This provides a professional attendant to accompany each golfing group and cater to every wish before, during and after the round. In addition to offering advice on precise yardages, club selection and strategy in handling tricky Caribbean trade winds and water, the caddie cleans clubs, rakes bunkers and repairs divots. The recommendations are particularly handy on the tough Ninth Hole, a short Par Three playing into crosswinds, with an island green guarded by four bunkers and in full view of resort guests at the pool and Periwinkle by Eric Ripert restaurant.
