"TheHardest Hard isa quintessential St. Lucian food stop. Setunder an almond tree off La Toc Road, this restaurant, with a zinc roof and a blue and yellow exteriorthat matches the Piton beer bottle, has a windowless interior that may put you off—untilyou noticethe crowds of locals who flock here at lunchtime. Order fromthe changing menu of home-cooked disheslike fish Creole, goat peleau , grilled pork chops, pigtail bouillon, and pumpkin soup, all served with a healthy dose of side dishes, including rice and plantains. Fresh juices are available daily, as are desserts. The atmosphere is friendlyandlively, and you'll likely be so full you'll need a nap afterward."
