But this is about restaurants. They are everywhere and cater to most every taste. Créole, of course, but being only a few miles from French St Martin, some of the finest French chefs ply their trade on the Dutch side. Antoine Restaurant serves traditional French dishes, some with a northern Italian flair and provides a great view of the Bay at no extra charge. Sonya and Joel at Escargot will welcome you to their colorful Créole house and tempt you with escargot seven ways, followed by fine French food featuring duck and the freshest seafood available. Just past Antoine heading east is Fusion Restaurant where Marvin Van Eyck serves up his contemporary cuisine in a sleek waterfront dining room. Fusion was named best new restaurant in The Daily Herald's reader's poll in 2008. At the very head of town, close to the new cruiseship pier is The Greenhouse Bar and Restaurant featuring great burgers, steaks, ribs, and seafood. Some of the finest local food can be found at Shieka's Bistro, just a few steps off Front Street in a cool, tree-shaded oasis in front of the Community Center. The Chinese and Indians have long emigrated to the Caribbean and brought their food with them. Shiv Sagar and Anand are are among the better Indian restaurants on the island. There are beach bars galore lining the boardwalk. Islan Flava, Taloula Mangos, and Indigo Beach serve some of the more serious beach food.
