Frommer's Review
The best independent restaurant in the capital, La Robe Creole sits on the second floor of a colonial house, beside a sunny plaza on a slope above the sea. The staff, dressed in madras Creole costumes, serves food in a long, narrow dining room capped with heavy beams and filled with 19th-century relics. You can enjoy pumpkin-pimento soup, callaloo with cream of coconut soup, crab backs (in season), and shrimp in coconut with garlic sauce. For dessert, try banana or coconut cake or ice cream.
A street-level section of the restaurant, The Mouse Hole (Monday to Saturday 7:30am to 4pm), is a good place for food on the go. You can buy freshly made sandwiches, salads, and light meals. They make good Trinidad-inspired rotis (Caribbean burritos).
