L'Escargot

Moon Author's Review

The most authentic French restaurant in Jamaica is L’Escargot (tel. 876/973-5589) however out of place it might feel in the center of Runaway Bay. The dimly lit dining room has a baby grand piano gracing the entrance. Start with the sig- nature escargot sautéed in garlic butter, herbs, and white wine, smoked marlin topped with mousse (US$12) or pâté de foie gras (US$9). For mains, try the coq au vin (US$18), the porc aux champignons, lamb chops, filet mignon, giant prawns in orange curry sauce, or stuffed grilled eggplant (US$14-35). The wine list relies exclusively on French vintages (US$26- 78), and desserts are scribbled on a chalkboard alongside the daily specials.
