Discover Trinidad & Tobago 2016 — 25th Anniversary Edition

Fine dining
Tobago’s finest restaurants often take advantage
of stunning locations — outdoor
seating overlooking the ocean, the shells
of colonial waterwheels and sugar mills,
preserved plantation houses, golf courses
and landscaped gardens, or awe-inspiring
mountainside perches. Many are part of
the posher hotel developments and offer
a range of fine dining experiences from
European, American and Asian cuisine, to
Caribbean and Tobagonian favourites. Fusion
restaurants and dishes are also on the
rise. Of course, freshly caught seafood is a
speciality.
Stumped for choice?
If you’re looking for great
ambiance and great food,
here are some names to look
out for: the Pavilion Restaurant,
Shore Things Café, Ciao
Café, La Tartaruga, Kariwak
Village, BarCode, Shirvan
Watermill, the Fish Pot,
Gemma’s Treehouse, Salsa
Kitchen, Prospect Café, the
restaurants at the Magdalena
Grand, and the Seahorse Inn,
Restaurant & Bar.
Casual dining &
fast food
Island-wide, roadside eateries,
food stalls and sports
bars offer international fast
food favourites as well as
local specialties. At Store
Bay, vendors cook up roti,
pelau, stew, curry crab-anddumpling
— plus burgers,
hot dogs, perhaps a soup
or two. Just before turning
off Milford Road for the Pigeon
Point Heritage Park, an
exceptionally crowded corner
offers all things takeout:
barbecue, pizza, Arabic
fare, fried chicken, and icecream.
