Arawak Cay (Fish Fry)
Bahamas
At a glance
Just west of downtown Nassau's busy streets, financial centres and jewelry vendors, is Arawak Cay, where some of the country's tastiest cuisine is served.
Beginning as a set of makeshift food stands, Arawak Cay - also known as 'Fish Fry' - has since developed into a string of colourful restaurants beaded along the waterside. Arawak Cay's chefs promise an authentic Bahamian experience to both locals and visitors alike. Fish-Fry is a hotspot for familiar visitors who frequent the area for popular dishes like conch salad, fried or grilled fish, cracked conch, and grilled lobster.
Conch is a delicacy in the Bahamas and you can get your share at the Fish-Fry. Experience one of the popular conch salad stands, ideal for enjoying conch fritters, salad, and a local beer or sky juice (a potent and refreshing blend of gin, coconut water, and sweetened condensed milk).
The area is family-friendly by day when the site's bright and cheerful restaurants can be appreciated with a leisurely walk down the esplanade.
