Junkanoo Seaside Cafe, New Providence

This casual outdoor eatery is tucked into a tiny shopping plaza off Bay Street. You must walk to the back of the plaza before you even see the restaurant. Tropical drinks and inexpensive lunch plates are served. Sandwiches, salads, seafood baskets and a few grilled specialties are served. A chicken sandwich or a hamburger will cost US$4. In the mood for something fried? Cracked conch and fries costs US$8; the "Bahama Mama" fried chicken basket will set you back a mere US$5.95. Fruit daiquiris, rum punch and other tropical drinks cost US$4 each. Upon first glance, it's hard to tell that this is actually a restaurant. Food is prepared at a makeshift kitchen that's halfway tucked into another building. The dining area is all outside, in a courtyard that can easily be mistaken for a sidewalk.
