I don't know where you're staying, but the Deli in Maho makes incredible sandiches. And really good pastries as well. The young chef is French and has told us "Just tell me what you want and I'll make it for you". Next time I'm there I'm going to ask him where he learned his skills.

We were there yesterday, and Dominos was out of pizza! They did have boneless chicken wings that my husband got and I ordered the chicken Alfredo, which was not too bad. We wondered why there was no line. As others have said, I'd pick something up to take with us if we were leaving from SXM. We flew from Statia and just didn't have enough time to leaved the airport.

Just another example of the bungling of the reconstruction process.

We ate at the bistro next to Domino’s and the ham and cheese on a baguette wasn’t bad.

I guess one shouldn't be surprised that there are so few options at the airport to eat, as everything else about this project has been screwed up. But these are presumably private businesses, who are losing money every day they are not open. Why is it taking so long for more places to be open? I guess that's a rhetorical question, as no one knows.
People who are going through there, do they seem to be working on more places to eat? What about Johney Burgers? (SP!) They were doing a great job there. And does it look like they are working on a real bar?? That bar downstairs was the best part of the airport, since Irma.

Perhaps the food vendors are not offering enough "incentive" to either airport or government officials to get the businesses open. Sadly, it all falls in line with how this project has been all along.

JD--could be. If anyone has any info as to why this is taking so long to get food vendors open, I surely would love to know.

Scuba--I don't know. I don't remember anyone mentioning it.
DSSS--Sandwiches, certainly. Soda, etc., no.

Bringing something with you is definitely the safest. We flew out yesterday and Dominos was out of PIZZA!! They had chicken tenders and chicken alfredo.... we got those and they were ok. We were flying from Statia and did not have time to leave the airport. If flying from SXM, I definitely would get something to take with me. The Bistro line was huge.
