Indian Kitchen


  We managed to have a proper Saturday this weekend, a nearly work free Saturday, which is rare in our household.  We took the dog to Leeward beach and enjoyed a bright, glassy turquoise ocean for a snorkel and swim.  I took a few travel books to help us plan our next trip over lunch.  We decided to stop at a little place we pass often that had a new sign hanging over the front entrance.  Indian Kitchen has only been open two weeks and I highly suggest everyone give it a try before it gets crowded.  Two Corona's and two delicious vegetarian roti's set us back only $28.  The open air cafe sits just beside Alverna's Market, perfect for tourists to take a browse at the local craft, seashell, and Haitian art selections.  For those of us that live here, it's one of those places that remind us we live in the Caribbean; simple white painted wood structure with splashes of color here and there, lattice and shutters to catch the breeze, and a small grassy courtyard area nestled between the market shops.  We asked the friendly owner if we could move our table and chairs under the shade of a coconut tree and she eagerly obliged us.  A nearby native lantana and a red hibiscus were visited by a hummingbird while we polished every last morsel off our plates.

  1. We went to Indian Kitchen tonight after seeing this recommendation on your blog! And we are so glad we did, the food was amazing! The owner asked us how we had heard about it and I said I had seen it on a blog on the Internet and she found that very bemusing!
