we were at st john, in the us virgin islands, last week and had a hodge-podge of meals. i was inspired by a restaurant that was a first for us on this most recent visit. sweet plantains is located in the tiny east end corner of st john, coral bay. i enjoyed an “erotic martini” (see their menu) and dan a frosty presidente. the evening we chose to dine featured latin foods. caribbean foods have many inspirations latin being one. to celebrate the trip and fabulous food here is a humble version of a latin soup but incorporating some organic, whole wheat sourdough bread and thus the papa al pomodoro!
papa al pomodoro soup
this is my interpretation of what we enjoyed on St. John

Is this the soup I missed the other day? Sure looks and sounds good.
