Sol y Son

One of Trinidad's long-standing paladares, this place is housed in an art- and furniture-bedecked, 19th-century house that could double as an antiques store. Out back, on the porch of a very attractive, verdant courtyard, the restaurant offers one of the more extensive menus among private restaurants. Choose from soups, spaghetti, a long list of fish (including a breaded filet stuffed with cheese), and grilled and roasted chicken and pork dishes. Check out the cerdo borracho (drunk pork), which is grilled and doused with rum and the house cocktail made from seven-year-old rum and honey. The patio has mounted ceiling fans and, during the day, you should do your level best to sit beneath one, as it can get bloody hot.
