In all honesty, David you can't go wrong food wise on St. Maarten unless you really don't know what you're doing. There are so many great restaurants offering everything you have mentioned I would suggest drawing up a list from the posts above and using it as your cheat sheet. There is no need to drive all the way to Grand Case or Orient Bay to find good food. Several months ago a local SXM publication had their "best of St. Maarten awards" that you might want to refer to. Someone out there must have the link, so stay tuned in and watch for this. Maybe Carol or Scubaman has the link handy.
