Ins & Outs of Barbados 2020

74  SHOPPING INS& Eat Like a Local There are plenty of cool local places to grab a bite on a Bridgetown shopping expedition: Hunter’s Bar on Tudor Street serves their famous pudding and souse and Bajan cutters with fish, and ham and cheese; Mustor’s on McGregor Street sells hot lunches of delicious local specialties like macaroni pie, breadfruit cou cou with stewed pork chops, and our national dish, flying fish and cou cou. At Tim’s on Broad Street be sure to sample the barbeque pig tails and wash it down with an ice cold Banks beer or, for something different try mauby, a bitter- sweet local drink made from the bark of a tree. Great for Grazing! Waterside Retreat A welcome respite in the heart of town is the delightful Waterfront Café, overlooking the Careenage. Famous for great jazz music on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings, it’s one of the best places to enjoy delicious Bajan and Caribbean food. Kick back with a rum punch and try Barbados’ national dish – Flying Fish and Cou Cou. Their irresistible salt fish cakes, Bajan Pepperpot and Kingfish Ceviche are favourites with Waterfront Café fans.
