CEM takes
a look at some of the best restaurants in the Caribbean
Coyaba
Restaurant, Providenciales, Turks & Caicos
Coyaba
is an elegantly appointed gazebo style restaurant in a lush tropical garden
offering fine eclectic contemporary Caribbean Cuisine. Chef Paul Newman uses
his culinary expertise for the daily-changing main courses, which include
exquisitely presented dishes such as crispy, whole, yellow snapper fried in
Thai spices.
One
standout is lobster Thermidor in a Dijon-mushroom cream sauce. You may want to
try several different appetizers instead of an entrée for dinner;
guava-and-tamarind barbecue ribs and coconut-shrimp tempura are two good
choices if you go that route. If you enjoy creative menus, this is the place for
you. Coyoba keeps the resident expat crowd happy with traditional favorites
such as lemon meringue pie, albeit with his own tropical twist. Don't skip
dessert; Paul makes incredible chocolate fondant.
The
Cliff, Barbados
One
of the West coast's finest restaurants, The Cliff opened in January 1995 to
rave reviews and hasn't looked back since. Chef Paul Owen's innovative and
creative cuisine has been matched with an imaginative setting awash in
candlelight and art, where every table has a view of the Caribbean Sea. The
restaurant is located on a clifftop, overlooking the calm waters of the
Caribbean.
The Cliff Restaurant is also available for private functions such as weddings, retirement parties and corporate functions.
