We arrived in Sint Maarten and ate our first meal at “Talk of the Town”. This lo lo (which is really nothing more than a roadside barbeque) was featured on “Feasting on Waves” with Alton Brown. The restaurant filled the air in Gran Case for several blocks with the aroma of smoky ribs and chicken. The boys had barbeque with rice and plantains while the girls gravitated to the shrimp creole with the same sides. This was paired with Carib Beer. Everybody really enjoyed their dinner but our favorite part was the Johnny Cakes which we ordered for appetizers. Unfortunately they came after the main course was finished so they became a sort of dessert (Sally wished they had been drizzled with honey). No worries … we are in the islands and all is good. Of course, Sint Maarten is Dutch and there is some great chocolate available so it is once again time for some real dessert.
