Could the ‘pub’ referred to above be David’s? If so, believe it or not, they used to serve possibly the best onion soup au gratin. It still stands out in my mind.
Another great memory for my family was the original Zee Best Sidewalk cafe in Marigot and the spiel the host would use to suck you in. Back then they would bring a basket of pastries to accommodate the size of the group and offer more if needed. It was so much fun to sit on the sidewalk across from the cemetery and watch the world pass by.
And lastly, among all our incredible memories of almost fifty years of annual trips to Sint Maarten were, were the many meals we enjoyed at ANTOINES on Front Street, both under the Captain and his wife right up through the ownership of Jean Pierre who currently owns The French Touch on Old Street.
So many wonderful memories…….I could go on and on but I’ll spare you all! 😊😊
Respectfully,
