Dining by candlelight on the waterfront terrace of Mariners Hotel means exquisite French cuisine with Caribbean flair—and one of the best dining experiences on St. Vincent. Start with a rich soup—traditional French onion, fish with aioli, or callaloo and conch—or escargots, stuffed crab back, or conch salad. Main courses include fresh fish and shellfish grilled with fresh herbs, garlic butter and lime, or creole sauce. Landlubbers may prefer beef bourguignonne, suprème de poulet (stuffed chicken breast), or beef tenderloin with béarnaise, Roquefort, or mushroom sauce. For dessert—the mi-cuit, a warm chocolate delicacy with vanilla ice cream, is to die for. Lighter, equally delicious fare is served at lunch.
