In the Caribbean archipelago of the Turks and Caicos Islands, traditional cuisine draws on the local seafood supply, mainly lobster and conch. Conch can be served Creole-style, curried, in chowder or as fritters. Staple side dishes include hominy, or grits, cooked with peas (and sometimes rice) flavored with salted beef or pork. A weekend specialty is often lightly boiled fish with johnnycakes.

Lacayan rum is the liquor of the islands, mixed with fresh juices and a bit of coconut rum as well. For a sweet tooth, options include mango-lime sorbet and sautéed sweet potatoes.—Leska Tomash
