Brimming with good cheer, this tropical cocoon in a street running parallel to the seafront serves excellent food. A sampling of choices might include a burger with homemade fries, a copious salad, tuna tataki or a toothsome tartine (a slice of organic bread with toppings). The homemade desserts are every bit as devastatingly delicious as they sound. Mmm, the chocolate cake.
