Tamarin or Bonito? Or elsewhere?

We are in our last few days on the island and our kids would like to try a "dining experience" (even though they have very selective tastes!). Hubby and I have had incredible experiences at Bonito and I think they're a little jealous. I remember from our last visit in 2019 Tamarin had a children's menu but I can't find any mention of it now. I did some searching on this site and long ago someone mentioned Bonito has a children's menu, but I've never see that, either. Any ground breaking suggestions where I won't spend 45 euro for them to eat three bites? I have restaurant decision fatigue!

Here's where we've been with them so far:

Pearl Beach (twice), L'Isoletta, Le Grain de Sel, Les Bananiers, Creperie, Papa Pizza, Buns, Bouchon, and JoJo Burger. None of this is "fancy" enough, my daughter has specifically requested white table cloths. :rolleyes:
 
Let me throw in Eddy’s I agree with Amy. Another suggestion is Sand Bar. Park by Pearl, walk along the beach to Eden Rock. The walk at night is magical and you can share fun pirate stories with your kids along the way. Walking to dinner with no shoes…kids will love it! The pizza is amazing as well. The memories and ghosts that St. Jean offers. Filao, Emaraude Plage, Chez Francine, Toms Beach. Cheryl & I order an appetizer, a wonderful bottle of white and of course the pizza. Enjoy and see you on the beach

Eddy’s always is relaxing & a great ambiance, IMO. The barefoot walk along St. Jean beach, however, with gentle waves & magical lighting of sunset & waterside villas & restaurants, is hard to surpass! (Sand Bar pizza also is great!)
 
Merci! I showed them some menus and Eden Rock got their vote. They also want to try Repaire, so that's another to add to the list. Husband and I adore Eddy's but I couldn't convince them to try anything on the menu. They're so boring!
 
Be nice and if there is justice in the world they may someday give you grandchildren!

And the grandchildren may love oysters - my 6 and 9 year olds do!

Hooray for kid gourmets.

I had fabulous raw oysters at L'Isola last week. Where did you find these delicious looking oysters?

Cute kid and by the way I am impressed with his thoroughly cleaned out shell.
 
I try to remember they still have a lot of life and flavor to experience. My son is more adventurous than my daughter, but both are far from gourmets! They're both very excited for Eden Rock tomorrow, and my son insists he will try the scallop crudo. He loved the grilled calamari at Shellona, and learned how to pick a blue crab at 6 years old, so maybe I should give him more seafood?

the scallop crudo was smaller than we expected however a wonderful culinary delight. However your kids experience will be magical. Where else in the world can you have this experience. Enjoy!
