This favourite Sicilian restaurant along the Simpson Bay strip is proving that it has what it takes to be there for everyone. Open for lunch and dinner, it is offering the usual fabulous fare. You can sit in the air-conditioning or on the terrace and enjoy excellent chilled wine with your meal or you can pre-order your takeout.
Sale n Pepe is a little different to other restaurants in that a lot of their delicious food is displayed in the chilled glass cases. You can choose something to add to your order from the menu, you can mix and match, and you can ask if they can put something together just for you – and they will. It is fantastic!
Look at the dishes on display for instance; you like octopus but would like it with boiled potato as a salad – no problem. You like the eggplant and would like it as a side to your roast chicken – no problem. You have never yet tasted the small silver fish and would like to try that along with some of the other foods – no problem. You can also order a platter of anti-pasta, and then a main course – and the desserts are absolutely delicious.
Consider yourself very lucky if you are there, because a tray of the most incredible light and airy hot rolls comes from the kitchen; these are served as a side with their home-made chili jams.
Sale n Pepe is fantastic!
Having a meal there is wonderfully relaxing – a little bit of Europe on St. Maarten. At the moment, you see the marines going about helping other areas on island clean up and get back to normal, busy up and down the road. Other St. Maarten residents pop in and out getting their take-out, greeting those sitting at the tables. This is a friendly and fun place to be! Everything is up and running after all the chaos. It is a good choice for a night out.
