Cuisine is an art that favors the senses. It is certainly about the flavors, the combination of ingredients and spices in a delicate balance that, when done correctly, delights everyone and anyone, but there is also a lot more about it. The texture –is it crunchy? Is it soft?–, the aroma –is it delicate? Is it embracing?–, the presentation –artful affair, almost like painting a masterpiece–, the colors –carefully selected to be harmonic, energetic, almost ethereal.
A good foodie knows and understands all of this. Enjoys food both for what it is and for what it can be: a white canvas for an avid artist that wants to share their essence with the world.
Amongst the many St. Barts restaurants, there are true jewels for foodies. Here, we would like to share our personal favorites with you, and perhaps inspire a new hobby for your future stay with us.
