Comedor Maris
A family-run eatery at the northern end of Great Corn Island, known for rondon, a coconut-milk seafood stew that must be booked in advance, and for its garlic lobster.
The owner runs this eatery in her own yard beside the main road at the northern end of Great Corn Island, marked by a blue sign. Taxi drivers often call it 'Ms. Dinet's place'. Its signature is rondon (rundown), the island's traditional Creole dish of fish, shrimp, lobster, green plantain and ripe plantain stewed in coconut milk. It should be booked about 2 hours ahead, ideally the day before. Garlic lobster and Mexican chilli shrimp are also popular. Diners eat at small tables on the porch or under the shade of the garden, in a homely atmosphere. Prices are affordable and slightly upscale for a comedor, but still good value. Bringing cash is recommended.
