While on a cruise to Grand Bahamacruise to Grand Bahama, I rented a car in Freeport to explore more of the island. The guy at the car rental place told us to got to a place called Cleveland's Beach Club for lunch. A selling point to go to the restaurant was that they had pigs to swim with. According to the car rental guy, if we told Cleveland's that he sent us, we would be able to swim with the pigs for free. This wasn't the case. One of the people in my group almost paid for the pig swimming experience, but we were running short of time and decided against it.
We did get to see the pigs as they were taken for a walk past our table. Good enough for me. I wasn't there to swim with the pigs, I was there for the food.I ordered their combo plate which came with lobster tail, fried fish, fried shrimp, and conch fritters. It was a little bit of overload of deep fried seafood. The two standouts was the lobster and the fish. Conch was a little tough.

Lunch in Freeport, New York
I ate lunch in Freeport, New York on Long Island. The restaurant that was decided upon was called Capt. Phil Ehrhart's. Being a beachy seaside town, I was hoping to eat some sort of seafood in Freeport. Capt. Phil Ehrhart's couldn't really provide that. They didn't seem to specialize in seafood all too much, but I picked out some coconut shrimp. They were unable to prepare them though due to lack of ingredents, so I ended up just going with a Caesar Salad. It was a good salad and there was nothing wrong with it. I just wasn't what I had in mind...

There was a nice view from the restaurant's deck of the nearby fishing boats. There was also a live band playing out here.

After eating lunch it was time for dessert from Ralph's Italian Ices. The Ralph's in Freeport was a short walk up the road from Capt. Phil Ehrhart's, and I tried lime and passion fruit water ices. The flavors themselves were good, but this Freeport Ralph's wasn't as good in general when compared to the Franklin Square Ralph's. A small ice here cost $0.25 more than the Franklin Square Ralph's. For the extra quarter, you received a smaller portion in a paper cup that quickly got soggy compared to a larger styrofoam cup. The ices were good, the rest of this Ralph's wasn't quite as good...
