Legendary fish sandwich on raisin bread with tartar
"Tucked away back-of-town, I think Art Mel’s serves one of Bermuda’s finest fish pon buns: a lightly fried wahoo or snapper fillet on house-made raisin bread with tartar sauce and cole slaw (lettuce, tomato, and hot sauce optional); the sandwich is generous—many suggest sharing—though you might also want to save room for their house gingerbread." - Katherine Cusumano, David LaHuta
