On the East End of St. Croix, on the same major road as The Buccaneer, Chenay Bay Resort on one side and Divi and Villa Madelaine on the other, is a delightful restaurant-cum-service-station run by Camella and St. Claire Greene. Don't be fooled by the fact that this is a service station, because this is where you can get the best roti in the area. And, when you've had quite enough of the hamburgers and same-old-same-old, you'll crave for something quite different. A roti is a Caribbe an speciality that resembles a burrito. It is a huge, soft tortilla filled with soft potatos, vegetables and chicken, shrimp, or beef ($6.00). You can also get breakfast there (croissant egg sandwiches, french toast, bacon and eggs, salt fish on titi bread, smoked herring, coffee, bush team, local drinks, a variety of sandwiches and "pates").

Mrs. Greene has a window at this service station-- recognizable from the road because of it's blue awning -- and is impeccably clean, neat and scenic. There's no indoor seating, but there is a covered gazebo with picnic table that overlooks the ocean. There is also seating in the front of the station. They are open from 6:30 am to whenever. Their number on the island is 773-8382.
