TravelTalkOnline Forums Travel and Vacation Forums St. Maarten - St. Martin Monday (I think) week 2

Lazy me can't even remember what day it is. Monday 3/21, I think.

Woke to rain. We'd planned on a day at Dreams. Rain stopped but it still didn't look too good so after breakfast we decided to spend time at one of our pools. Since we didn't go to Dreams to relax & eat I think we'll go to Mark's Place tonight to try the chicken farm people here have posted was good. I'll have the ribs if they haven't sold out. Sun is now out in full force.

Hopefully you'll be able to get to Dreams soon. As far as Mark's, my favorite is what they call 'garlic chicken', which is fettucine alfredo with chicken. Yummy and a huge serving! And don't forget their garlic bread! It is the bomb!

Never known Mark's Place to run out of ribs. Mussels might be a different story when it comes to availability but you should be good on ribs.

mmmmmm garlic chicken sounds good!

It is excellent and I always bring home leftovers for the next day.

Chicken Parm also goooooood! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/toast.gif" alt="" />

Where is Mark's Place?

In Philipsburg in the parking lot with Grand Marche.

79 A Bushroad Cul de Sac
Technically, Philipsburg, but a ways from the downtown shopping area.

Phones: 543.2625 or 527.8717

Thank you. I will put it on our list. We got stuck in the Phillipsburg downtown traffic on their one way streets last Sept. (Not even a high season) and will avoid that at all costs!

In reviewing that address, Cul de Sac is quite a long ways from Philipsburg and on the French side. Mark's Place is not located way up there...is that correct?

Mark's Place is NOT on the French side. Dutch side in the Grand Marche parking lot at the round-a-bout.

I think there's both a French and a Dutch Cul de Sac, but Mark's is definitely on the Dutch side, in the parking lot of the Grand Marche at the roundabout near Philipsburg. Not in the shopping area near the boardwalk, but I think it's still considered Philipsburg. Street addresses have never been of any use to me there, as there were no street signs until recently, lol.

All,

I took the address directly from the Take Out Menu I got last week after eating there. That area is called Dutch Cul de Sac.
Anyway, the key landmark is to find Le Grande Marche at the roundabout off of Bush Rd.

Not to further complicate where Mark's is now (Dutch Cul de Sac), Mark's originally was in FRENCH Cul de Sac. Luis blew them to the Dutch side!
