7 Tropical Resorts That Are Wowing Foodies

I don’t know what’s more annoying at tropical resorts – the daily poolside Macarena line dance lessons or the tired buffets filled with overcooked meat and lifeless produce. For years, us foodies have accepted both in an effort to spend a week in paradise. To cope, we numb our senses with an endless intake of alcohol in the name of relaxation.

Thankfully, a few resorts are starting to take note and revitalizing their cuisine to win over the ever-growing population of foodies. Here’s a list of resorts guaranteed to satisfy even the most discerning diner. So go ahead and indulge! But maybe not too much. You will be wearing a swimsuit after all…

It’s like watching the Food Network, but live on the beach.
