When Steven and Barbara visited St. Barts in the French West Indies last month, they found some singular spit-roasting at the Wall House restaurant in Gustavia.

So what made it so different?

First, there’s what the Wall House cooks on the rotisserie—shish kebab, for example, and even whole fish—locally caught snapper basted with olive oil and fennel. Then there’s the unique construction of the rotisserie: the spits hang vertically, so fat drains efficiently off the five-spice crusted, spit-roasted ducks pictured below.
If you happen to find yourself on St. Barts in the next few month (a destination we can’t recommend highly enough), don’t miss the Wall House (tel. 0590.27.71.83). And remember, if you find some cool barbecue on your next vacation, be sure to tell us about it on the barbecue board.
