CURRENCY CONVERTER

This casually elegant, pale-yellow-and-blue clapboard restaurant overlooking Nichupté lagoon takes you back to the time when the Caribbean first experienced European tastes and culinary talents. The decor combines island-style colonial charm with elegant touches. The service is excellent, but the food is only mediocre, especially considering the price. For starters, try the signature poached shrimp with lemon juice and olive oil, or creamy crabmeat soup. Move on to the main event, which may consist of classic veal Wellington in puff pastry with duck paté, fish filet crusted in spices and herbs and topped with vanilla sauce, or lobster medaillons in mango sauce. Flambéed desserts are a specialty, and the Plantation House has one of the most extensive wine lists in town. It's generally quite crowded, which makes it a bit loud for a romantic evening.

Main courses $13-$35.Open: Daily 5pm-12:30am.Reservations recommended.Credit Cards: AE, MC, V.
