In the Bahamas' Out Islands, the tradition of Fish Fry defines a gathering of small stands and shacks where cooks prepare authentic homemade Bahamian cuisine - from fried chicken and stew' fish to conch salad and guava duff.
Within walking distance of the cruise-ship port, Arawak Cay holds Nassau' authentic version. Some of the most popular sit-down restaurants include Goldie's, Oh Andros and Twin Brothers. Newest to the scene, D'Waters Cafe serves arguably the best. Whereas most of the restaurants serve Bahamian food in every form, D'Waters is more selective, meaning better care and quality.
Besides food, the colorful collection of restaurants and bars comprise a drinking and partying destination, where live music plays into the night.
