The Passionate Foodie, a weekly column that looks at St. Maarten/St. Martin’s food culture, has been published in the Daily Herald’s supplement The Weekender since 2010. Covering all ethnic groups and the cuisines that have found their way to this wee island in the Caribbean the column has been an adventure of the palate for many readers, a little bit of travel, history and geography for those who don’t really cook and a source of some new recipes for those who do.
