Good Food, Any Way You Like It
Our island might be
small but take it from us, there's an abundance of terrific dining
options. In fact, over 150 choices - from simple and unfussy
where you can shoot the breeze with locals to top-notch fine dining
forthat special
occasion.
Take the opportunity to sample our delicious, local fish and
guinea-chick lobster (seasonal). Though much of our food is
imported, farms scattered across the island provide good crops of
fresh, seasonal fruits and vegetables. You must try our
legendary fish chowder livened up with dashes of sherry peppers and
rum, or the hearty local breakfast of codfish and potatoes served
with Berm uda avocados and
bananas.
When the shadows stretch and the island workers undo their
neckties, happy hour kicks in and many bars and pubs offer drinks
and nibbles at reduced prices. Our two most illustrious national
drinks are the Dark n' Stormy (a mix of Bermuda dark rum and ginger
beer) and the Rum Swizzle (a mix of fruit juices and rums).
Theyboth pack a good punch!
Casual dress is acceptable at most restaurants, though upscale
eateries often require a jacket. All restaurants and bars are
non-smoking. It's best to make a reservation, especially in the
summer when the
islandis
busiest.
