On a recent trip to Bermuda, having run out of ricecakes, a must have to keep our 9 month old baby occupied in restaurants, we scoured Hamilton's grocery stores.  The big grocery downtown -- no dice, the bodega by the water -- nada, the fancy gourmet shop by the Princess -- no luck.  We got to chatting with a Fairmont employee, Hal, while waiting for the shuttle.  After explaining what we were looking for and a quick call to his sister to confirm that they must exist somewhere on the island, he took it on as a personal mission to secure the elusive ricecake, despite our protests that that was above and beyond the call of duty.  Later in the evening we returned to our room from the pool to find 3 varieties hand delivered!  Just in time to enjoy at Sunday brunch at the Southampton.
