Carol's link is to the correct apartment, Catalina, located directly across the street from LaVilla. We rented that unit from Jean Pierre, who lives in France. I believe we paid him via PayPal. He has a local manager, Phillipe, who met us with the keys and provided a helpful explanation of how everything in the apartment works. I believe the other unit on the second floor is also a rental from a different owner.
I hadn't listed the details of all our meals, because my report was already so long! But since I got asked <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/jester.gif" alt="" />
Ocean 82--Rack of lamb with a nice herb crust. MahiMahi with mango chutney (not as appealing as I'd hoped) and buerre blanc sauce. Grilled red snapper fillets served in a broth with vegetables. That one seemed a bit odd to me, but my daughter who loves red snapper liked it a lot. Profiteroles for dessert.
LaVilla--Excellent scallop and avocado appetizer. Sea Bass fillet with basil cream sauce served with zucchini risotto (wish the zucchini had been left out). John Dorry (a North Atlantic fish we hadn't tasted before) as the nightly special. The homemade ice cream and sorbet sampler for dessert...yum
We like eating seafood in SXM because we often don't get the same quality and choices at home. All our dinners were good..some just seemed to have flavors that worked best for us and were cooked to exactly the right texture for the fish.
