BLACK GINGER

[amyb]

Just a heads up..the restaurant will be closing August 15th for vacation. Reopening October 15th.

The restaurant was full, Gustavia was jammed with a 50 50 mix of Americans and Frenchmen

Perhaps he is thinking of the right street, but another restaurant? Orega.

It certainly gets them away for the heart of hurricane season. Almost the whole island hunkers down and is closed in September.

I got a little nervous when I clicked on the thread. Black Ginger was on our tentative list for later this month and I thought for sure this was going to say closing before we get there. Luckily we should be good.

Side note to Amy (and others that do as well)- thanks for always posting the closing/reopening dates when you hear. It is really helpful when trying to plan out where to go (at least for me:blush-smile . I know a lot of places close this time of the year and we are never sure who is open and who is closed. I always try to go back and check prior years closing dates, but lately (Irma/pandemic/etc) it has been different every year for some places.

So glad, Jim, to read that you’re returning! After quite a long stay on this visit, I’ll unfortunately probably miss meeting-up with you . . . departing next week ‘til mid-August. The island, meanwhile, is “buzzing!” So many visitors . . . about 50 / 50, I’d say, between Americans & French. Some of your favorite places will be closed . . . but there’s no shortage of fine ambiance & dining. Enjoy!
