Chez Clara

Chez Clara (Bord de Mer, Sainte-Rose, Basse-Terre) —  this restaurant, housed in an old-style French Caribbean structure, is owned by a local woman named Clara (a former backup dancer for 1970s French music idol Claude François).  With a following among the French tourists who regularly visit Guadeloupe, Chez Clara serves local curry-spiced Creole dishes, along with seafood items like Lambi (conch), octopus, and grilled fish.
