Blue Lagoon Island Beach Break

OVERVIEW

Indulge in foods synonymous with Bahamian cuisine at three iconic locations downtown. The culinary experience will begin at Bahamian Cookin’, a restaurant that three generations of Bahamian women have operated for more than four decades. The tastings offered there will be wonderfully traditional and likely include conch fritters, a tomato-based steamed chicken and Bahamian-style peas and rice. Dessert will be served at Graycliff Chocolatier, a chocolate-making factory that processes local cacao beans to create mouth-watering sweets with a Bahamian twist. Some of the chocolates contain fruit such as mango and limes; others are made with more unusual ingredients such as sea grapes and bacon. Over a tropical-inspired drink at the Talking Stick Bar & Restaurant at the Towne Hotel, you will learn about the history of Nassau and icons such as the Christ Church Anglican Cathedral. Another tasting awaits you at the Captain’s Deck, a restaurant just steps from Prince George Wharf.
