RESTAURANTS
& BARS: The Restaurant is unique
by itself. The Chef originates from Belgium where the Culinary art
is influenced by the French and of course their own traditions.
He has received many awards during his extensive career and has
carried a Michelin Star while running his own restaurant in Belgium.
He creates a balance between Traditional and West Indian Cuisine
and uses a lot of local products. A great lobster fan himself, he
is delighted with the supply and quality he is able to get on an
almost daily basis. Every evening a 4 or 6 course dinner is served
at the Poolside restaurant along with a selection of a la carte
dishes. The wines are carefully selected from throughout the world
and form a well appointed list.
Lunch is served at the seaside patio and comprises of light dishes
or more distinctive ones in order to suit your appetite per day.
The Chef welcomes any suggestions from your side as what you would
like him to prepare for you. Preferably in the morning you can exchange
ideas about a particular dish you like for dinner or the use of
certain ingredients.
Breakfast is included in the room rate and consist of a selection
of home made bread, toast, Belgian raisin rolls, assorted jams,
cold cuts, cheeses, eggs, bacon sausages, fresh fruit, cereals,
a variety of teas, coffee and of course we invite you to let us
know if there is anything special you like us to prepare.
In the old days, sipping cocktails was a favorite past time before
dinner. A tradition we like to embrace as it gives us time to unwind
for a evening filled with culinary pleasures." The Bar is in
one word… Magnificent. Not so much for what it serves as well
the building in which it's housed. The walls are more than 250 years
old and build with red bricks that where brought in as ballast on
Tall Ships from Holland. On the upper part you will find our ever-growing
library and comfortable leather chairs.
Overlooking the water the veranda is a perfect spot to watch the
sunset and perhaps see the mysterious green flash that the Islanders
will tell you about it, if the sun is about to touch the horizon.
Discuss the day with new acquainted friends or read one of the Historical
books that will give you more insight in the history of Statia.
The Bar itself is stocked with name brand liquor, international
beers and many more. Frozen Pina Coladas and Daiquiris are house
specialties that should no be missed but also a chilled martini
or T-punch are part of the selection. There is also the possibility
that you create your own favorite cocktail by stepping in and become
a bartender for a minute after which, of course, you will be served
with elegance! |
