In the Caribbean, the available types of restaurants and the fare they offer, is as colorful and varied as the people themselves.
Just as West Indian restaurants can be found abroad, the West Indies contains a decent share of international cuisine options as well as local Caribbean fare. Chinese, East Indian and other exotic cuisine types are popular in the larger islands. Several islands feature popular fast-food chains that sell fried chicken, hamburgers, and pizza. The quality, ambiance and price of the restaurants of the Caribbean runs the gamut, from roadside eateries to four- and five-star establishments. The best deals, though, are the smaller, local cafés that serve traditional island cuisine in simple surroundings.
