Mini menu, minimal presentation.
"Goat, chicken, fish" were the three lunchtime entrees on my recent visit to this tiny eatery, where the maneuvers required to reach your seat are ultimately rewarded with belly-filling Haitian chow. Preceded by a green salad, a plate of stewed goat ($12) was filled out by a boiled potato and garnished with onion (and, if you choose, the traditional Haitian spicy slaw, not shown here). The legume-studded rice is cooked in chicken stock; it's very moist as is, but extra goat gravy is available for the asking.
