You come here for delicious waffles - rumor has it that this is the place to eat the best waffles on the island - sweet and savory, accompanied by a cup of coffee. And when you see the long list of coffees (vanilla frappé, flat white, Vietnamese iced coffee, caramel latte...), it would be a shame to settle for an espresso. As for waffles, we really like the bacon-avocado-egg waffle and the fruit waffle. A real treat!

You leave with a full belly and a gentle joie de vivre.
GUERRERA
Read moreOne of our favorites! In the heart of a rice paddy with a view of the sea, we arrive at this restaurant with its carefully crafted aesthetic and eclectic decor blending colonial influences, Spanish tiles, Vietnamese lanterns and a vast open kitchen where you can admire the chefs in action. On the slate, an ultra-fresh menu that adapts to the day's catch and produce grown on the farm next door. The chef, Carmel, trained at the prestigious Le Cordon Bleu cooking school in Bangkok, and brilliantly reinvents Southeast Asian gastronomy.
