Miss Shanty — Restaurant in Town of Southampton

When I saw this gem pop up out of thin air overnight on Yelp when I was searching for some new haunts to eat at out here in HB, of course my taste buds could not wait to try this place ASAP!

Nestled in a perfect corner spot in a cozy hidden shopping mall, Chef Mark Evans and his partner created this much needed Caribbean hideaway with amazing food, fun atmosphere, fantastic staff and the warmest welcoming high energy vibe with fantastic music to boot.

We ordered to go this time... The curry chicken :fall off the bone greatness with the most perfectly seasoned curry that enveloped the meat and not drowned it. The curry goat :has some deep deep flavor and was so tender and not chewy in the least bit. The stewed oxtails: were also braised to melty perfection. Loved that the rice and peas #1 had tons of flavor and wasn't just cooked in water and some salt, #2 the peas were not the usually red kidney beans that is normally used, but pigeon peas which I love more and balanced the rice perfectly. The callaloo is not mushy and the cabbage salad is addictive!

Ordered the bun & cheese and my 4 yo devoured it. I really liked the addition of the guava paste but the only thing I ask is that they up the cheese slice, I'm used to a THICK slab of cheese between the delicious fruit cake like slices of bun and this one came with a super thin slice of cheese that literally just melted into the guava paste.

Cannot wait to join Chef Mark and his staff and dine there next time very very soon! So happy to have them as part of my rotation of restaurant and take out...
