Possibly the Best Fish Burger in the World

There is a little Shack right by Pebbles Beach in Barbados. It is nothing much to look at, but it has people queuing there at anytime for as long as I have been coming here.

Dave's Shack as they call it, even has it's own Facebook Fan Page, though I don't think it was set up by Dave and funnily enough I don't think the bloke that owns it is even called Dave.
Maybe I'll ask him later what his name is. Unless his Momma is working today, in which case I'll just say nought.
Respect.
So what is it that makes this simple Fish Burger or rather Fish Cutter as it's actually called so good? It has been puzzling me for years.

A big part of it has to be that soft and squidgey Bun it comes in.
 (It's called Ol' Time Salt Bread and I have got myself some to take home :-)
Then there is one slice of Tomato, that can't be it.
The lettuce leaf, surely not.
The fish is of course fresh but it varies in whatever has been caught that day, so that can't be defined as the magic ingredient.
Ah... maybe it is the combination of Ketchup and Bajan Chilli Sauce that you squeeze all over it.

Or it could be the Bottle of Banks Beer that washes it down, while watching the beautiful blue water with it's Boats and Yachts bobbing about in Carlisle Bay. Warm white sand caressing your feet with every delightful bite. All parts of the whole thing, I believe. Miss out one element and the whole Fish Cutter at Dave's Shack Experience fades into plain simpleness.

So what are you gonna do?
When you come to Barbados you have to come here, get your Fish Cutter or Fish Cutter with Cheese or Egg Roll or Egg Roll with Cheese, don't forget the Bajan Hot Sauce and marvel while you munch.
You will not regret it, I promise, hand on heart.


When I get home it is my mission to recreate this Fish Burger. I cannot wait.
Does anyone have any good recipe suggestions for this one?
