The Queen Conch
Bahamas
On the small fisherman's dock overlooking the harbour, Lavaughn Percentie serves up fresh conch salad to Harbour Island's locals and guests. Her aptly-named Queen Conch stand has earned itself a reputation for its specialty: For $10, hungry visitors can have their fill of conch a Bahamian delicacy, which Percentie usually serves in a bowl large enough for sharing or leftovers.
Though its food takes less than 10 minutes to prepare, the Queen Conch does not rush its presentation. Percentie welcomes viewers who gather to watch her expertly dice and mix fresh vegetables and conch, which is great with a dollop of hot sauce and plenty of lime juice.
If a picnic is what you're after, grab your conch delight and head five minutes down the road to a stretch of beach and sand bar that's perfect for a stroll. Native and affordable, the Queen Conch now offers both lunch and dinner.
