Greenhouse, La Sucriere and Le Moulin Fou are definitely open, yes. By April, it's possible that Skipjacks may be back open. If so, check them out for seafood. Closed in that area is Topper's by the Sea, and it will definitely not be reopening. Happy Bay has lost basically all of it's vegetation, so if you are fair skinned, make sure you bring a cover up or lots of sunscreen, as there is no shade. Pinel is back open, better than ever. Enjoy!

Lee's within walking distance - yes! We will definitely need to revisit Pinel then.I think I may have been to Avantika...is it near La Sucriere?
Any place we should venture to for a fine French meal in place of So French? We aren't as familiar with the French side of the island but always rent a car so definitely able to. Carialle, If you haven’t already been there and you're still looking for a nice French meal, do consider Le Moulin Fou in Maho. It’s up the hill behind where Cheri’s used to be and a lot more convenient than traveling to the French side. The food and service are always excellent. It’s been a favorite of ours ever since it opened and now, with Cheri’s closed for good, we can go any night and dine outside, without having to listen to the Cheri’s revue.

Fantastic food and a nice dining experience.

Bistrot Caraibes in Grand Case. Best to have a reservation.

If you loved So French, the owner Stephan, has 2 other restaurants. One is La Terrasse in Marigot, which has the same chef, Phillipe. The other restaurant, La Cigale, which should be reopening soon in Nettle Bay but I don’t know exactly when. I totally agree about Avantika for Thai food, it’s delicious! Happy Anniversary! I loved So French! Sad it was gone. Not sure if we had the owner or an employee waiting on us, but he was a riot!! Will def check out LeCigale in. Nettle Bay when open. Any idea where it will or is going to open?

Glad to hear that Tropicana is now open for dinner. It was only open for lunch in June. Still, it was a fabulous lunch spot! May do it again in June..
