Cha Cha Coconuts
food is billed as Caribbean, however we find it to be a little
more traditional American with a Caribbean twist. But then, American
food is as much a melting pot of world culture as our heritage,
right?
So anyway, for
starters we love the Calypso Chicken Wings served with
"Calypso" (jerk sauce). We also like the Chicken Tenders
that come with a a coconut mustard sauce. You might also have
them bring a cup of the BBQ jerk sauce that the wings are served
with as well. Other starters include black beans and rice, soups and
salads.
For lunch, the
Cuban Sandwich is a best bet. We also really like the grilled
Lime Grouper Sandwich made with garlic- lime juice and ground
black pepper and the Montego Bay Chicken Sandwich that is
made with barbecue sauce topped with bacon and melted cheddar
cheese. There are eight or nine burgers on the menu, but the Divi
Divi with sautéed mushrooms, onions and Swiss cheese and the
Cha Cha Cha topped with black bean chili and cheddar cheese
really stand out as the tastiest.
For dinner, the
Tropical Mahi Mahi, grilled and topped with a tropical mango and
tomato salsa is fantastic. We also like Brazilian Citrus Chicken
marinated and grilled in a citrus mango marinade as well as the
Voodoo Ribs, lean pork ribs marinated and slow cooked in a guava
barbecue sauce made from a recipe originally from the Blue Mountains
of Jamaica. Most of the dinners come with yellow rice and beans, but
you can also substitute fries (we warned you this was still
American).
You'll also find a
nice selection of dinner sized salads and for dessert, snap up a
piece of Key Lime Pie. You'll enjoy Cha Cha Coconuts.
