Enjoy the scenic views and the local seafood.
user ratingIn 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
