What more do we need than a little shack on a remote beach, to hang loose and relish eat fresh seafood?

This lovely place is situated on a rock near the shore of the Michanwi Pingwe beach.

Supposedly the restaurant serves a wide variety of sea food with a distinctly Zanzibari twist as well as a a selection of wines, beers and soft drinks.

Once you are inside, the owner a local fisherman will bring you the catch of the day from the grill to the table.

But warning, don't fall in love with islands too much as Robert Louis Stevenson, Scottish Essayist, Poet and Author of fiction and travel books, warned long ago...:

A man who has been three years biting his nails on a desert island can't expect to appear as sane as you and me.

(Robert Louis Stevenson)

And finally, consider this:

You must live in the present, launch yourself on every wave, find your eternity in each moment.
Fools stand on their island opportunities and look toward another land. There is no other land, there is no other life but this.

(Henry David Thoreau)
