Le Ti St Barth

Chef-owner Carole Gruson captures the funky, sexy spirit of the island in her wildly popular hilltop hot spot. We always come here to dance to great music with the attractive crowd lingering at the bar, lounge at one of the pillow-strewn banquettes, or chat on the torchlight terrace. By the time your appetizers arrive, you'll be best friends with the next table. The menu includes Thai beef salad, lobster ravioli, rare grilled tuna with Chinese noodles, and the best beef on the island. Provocatively named desserts, such as "Nymph Thighs" (airy lemon cake with vanilla custard) and "Daddy's Balls" (passionfruit sorbet and ice cream) end the meal on a fun note. Around this time someone is sure to be dancing on top of the tables. There's an extensive wine list. The famously raucous full-moon parties are legendary. Reservations essential. MC, V.
