First time back since honeymoon in 2007

Yesterday at 07:22 PM
Doing lots of research as it is what I do. Have a big birthday in May and decided that my husband Scott and I should go to St. Martin. Staying in Grand Case the last week of May. Last time we stayed in Orient Bay. We love to wander and drive around, explore and eat good food. Honestly, I just want to float in the ocean as I have a very stressful job. We'll go to Anguilla one day on a boat excursion and maybe spa for a couples massage. Other than that would love to know:
- Favorite restaurants on the French side
- Foodie, chef, chef place that celebs may frequent (work in Miami all the time and just ran into Scott Conant last night and was star struck lol)
- Any restaurants that might be gluten friendly for my hubby (he can always find something if not)
- Ice cream place for hubby?
- Best kept secrets (shhhh will not share, pinky swear)
- What to avoid (happy only one cruise ship on Monday that week!)
- How is Anse Marcel these days for a stop for lunch and beach?
- Any great boutiques, shops?
- Best place to get a bottle rum?
Love this forum and used for years for BVIs.
Lots of love and happy Friday!
Marcia (and Scott)

Ascension Day.
After a nice dip in the pool, we ventured off to Philipsburg.
Traffic was light, making the ride a very enjoyable one.
Once in town, stops were made at Rima, DK Gems and Juggie’s. Juggie is off island, so his wife Anita invited Marc to hold court at the smallest bar in the world. We were joined by a few cruise ship passengers. It was a fun time!
Chesterfields was closed for the holiday, so plan b for lunch was Yvette’s in Orleans. The restaurant was packed. Our meals of stewed chicken and stewed conch were delicious, as always, and we had the pleasure of being greeted by Felix.
We met island friends for Happy Hour at The Greenhouse, enjoying each other’s company and a beautiful sunset.
It was a fantastic day.

Day 6 Thursday
ruralcarrier
Yesterday at 10:07 AM
La Sucriere for pastries after some balcony time and watching the ships come in. Traffic was light due to it being a holiday, so we took the newbies on a 2-hour island tour. All of the routine areas except the Lowlands, Sandy Ground, and Nettle Bay. Marigot was bustling with cruise ship visitors and tourists with rental cars as well. Grand Case was busy as well, but driving through was easy compared to other times. A quick stop at Orange Fever. The beach was very busy, but it was early for the restaurant.
Back to The Horny Toad for a bit and since there were phone issues on the island, we decided to drive by Fat Tony's to see about pork chop night. It was on and started around 5:00. A quick stop at the casino on Maho and then to Driftwood, as Andy wanted to get sandblasted again. To him, Maho Beach is now known as "Blowback Beach".
Dinner was at Fat Tony's. We got there for HH, which is a really good deal. My wife said her pulled pork was excellent. The pork chops were good and large, but the potatoes were only slightly warm and the veggies were cold. All in all, a good meal and varied menu.
We have been by Bar Code two times, and it was not open either time. Not sure what is going on there.

Fat Tony's Thursday/other options
ruralcarrier
05/14/2026 04:34 PM
Today being a holiday, I am not sure if Fat Tony's is open, as they are not answering their phone. I wanted to got here tonight, but we may need other options. Any idea if D's is open? It looked like SMYC was open. How about Lee's or BBB?
Thanks for any input.
