American friends of mine in Haiti occasionally talk about
the ‘Embassy restaurant that has sushi.’
I finally got to go there, and was surprised at how close it is to the house
I stay in when I fly in and out of Haiti.
Apparently the residents go there often, but had never mentioned it to me! La Fouchet is located on Blvd. 15 Octobre,
Tabarre 43, near the US Embassy and the large MSC construction store. It is on the property of a hotel/apartment
complex called Executive Villas. Park
and follow the sign back to the restaurant.
Seating is open air under a roof and by the pool. The vegetarian Caterpillar Rolls were excellent
(California roll with avocado, cream cheese, and tempura onion). I also had passion fruit juice and flan for
dessert. My friend had a shrimp dish
with fried plantain and ice cream. They
also have breakfast, steak, burgers, pizza, pasta, and some Mediterranean dishes (for the Jordanian UN?). Prices were reasonable for a nice meal. Service was fast for Haiti! I would definitely go back, especially after almost 2 months of rice and beans.
