There is often discussion about the "best" burger on the island. After having the burger platter (salad and a lot of fries) at Mark's Place last night, IMHO it is the best burger I have had in the last few years down here. Great flavor and cooked perfectly.

beachpeople said: Wife loves the huge bowl of mussels there. Great casual dining. Have them bring you a side of pasta instead of the french fries. Yum.

I actually had the shrimp pasta last week and had enough left over for 2 breakfasts! Their pasta is very good.

kccouple said: The burger and fries on one order are enough that my wife and I nearly always split it. Then again, nearly all there dinners are so big we split them. True dat! I have been fooled once by their "all you can eat ribs" special. Their portions are so big that a regular order of ribs would have been more than enough for me. Now I just order their regular serving of ribs and I'm full. I will admit that I'm not a big eater, especially at night, so others might have a different opinion and take full advantage of the offer. By the way, their scalloped potatoes are excellent!

Bill--I think I will pass on curried goat, but my traditional meal there is what I think they call garlic pasta--fettucine alfredo with chicken. YUM, and definitely enough for at least two meals.

Carol...I had never had curried goat until a couple years ago at the Palms. You don't know what you're missing!! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Clapping.gif" alt="" />

Pretty sure they are grilled and not done on a flat top. If I am there again I will try to find out.

I'm really not a fan of gamey meats in general. I have to assume goat is pretty gamey?

You ate shrimp pasta for breakfast? Twice? I'm sure it was an excellent dinner since everything at Marks usually is, but shrimp 'anything' for breakfast........? <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Sick.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Sick.gif" alt="" />

Hmmmm, pasta for breakfast? Even that doesn't sound great to me but WE!!
And no, Scubaman, never had a shrimp omelet and while I'm a firm believer in 'to each his own....' I'm thinking I probably never will. It just doesn't sound appealing to me, but of the two options mentioned, so if I had to choose one, it would probably be a pasta breakfast, for sure. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" />

Pat, I take it you've never had Eggs Benedict with crab then? Yummy! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/jester.gif" alt="" />
