A former bartender at the Stone Terrace has returned to the island's foodie business, taking one small step to what could become another St. John restaurant.
Allen Lancaster's Gastrogrub is an unpredictable, imaginative dining experience at the Inn at Tamarind Court. The Inn is known for its value priced rooms, but also its dining patio which features a different specialty food menu each night of the week, prepared often by locals who like to cook.
An anonymous reviewer at the St. John Sun Times praised Gastrogrub's "sinfully rich" Swedish meatballs and pork braised in St. John Brewers' Tropical Mango Pale Ale. But, added the paper, "The blue ribbon goes to the Gangsta Mac n cheez - you simply cannot go wrong with seven different kinds of cheese."
Gastrogrub is 'open' Thursdays from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. The menu: http://www.gastrogrub.com/menu
