Chez Coco, Creole restaurant in Anse-Bertrand, Guadeloupe.
Chez Coco was a Creole restaurant in Anse-Bertrand positioned directly across from Porte d'Enfer beach, where traditional Guadeloupean dishes were served on a wooden terrace overlooking the ocean. The establishment specialized in fresh seafood sourced from local waters and provided diners with meals enhanced by sea views.
The restaurant opened several years ago and quickly became a gathering place for both locals and visitors, earning recognition as a key dining destination in northern Grande-Terre. Environmental pressures eventually led to its permanent closure.
The establishment celebrated Creole cooking through dishes like colombo curries, fried fritters, and grilled fish, prepared following recipes handed down through generations on the island. House-made fruit-infused rums with passion fruit and pineapple were served to complement these traditional flavors.
The restaurant offered wheelchair access and accepted card and cash payments for diner convenience. Reservations were recommended during peak tourist season when the establishment attracted many guests.
The establishment maintained a tank of live lobsters on its premises, allowing guests to observe these crustaceans before enjoying them as part of their meal. This practice gave diners confidence in the freshness and quality of the seafood offered.
