Les Amandiers

Frommer's Review

Across from the town hall on the main square of Bourg is the most traditional Creole bistro on Terre-de-Haut. Monsieur and Madame Charlot Brudey are your hosts in this blue-and-white building, with tables and chairs on the upper balconies for open-air dining. Lambi (conch) is prepared either in a fricassee or a colombo, a savory curry stew. Also offered are a court bouillon of fish, a gâteau (terrine) of fish, and a seemingly endless supply of grilled crayfish, a staple of the island. The catch of the day is also grilled the way you like it. You'll find an intriguing collection of stews, concocted from fish, bananas, and christophene (Caribbean squash). Knowledge of French is helpful around here.
