THE MENUS

From the Table

Pascale L., Coastal

"One of the best dining experiences that I’ve had. Every tasting was amazing and I have plenty of leftovers. The only complaint is that I didn’t have enough room in my stomach."

Jacob M., Sweet Heat

"All I have to say is it’s worth the trip. She fully understands the balance of salt, acid, and heat, and there was no subtlety; every dish was incredibly flavorful, and the ginger beer to pair was a great palate refresher."

Kimberly B.-F., Comfort

"What followed was an incredible four-course Haitian culinary experience, wonderful conversation, and Stevie Wonder providing the soundtrack. Honestly, my heart was already happy before the first plate arrived."
