Description:
ST. JAMES PARISH. In a previous life, the building that now houses the much-lauded The Tides restaurant was the residence of a well-to-do family. Not too much has changed, except there are now casuarina trees growing right through the roof giving the place a certain a trendy ambience much appreciated by celebrities and other style-conscious types. Seafood is the star here, expertly prepared by an internationally trained chef. Dishes tend to be contemporary Continental or French, with a subtle hint of Caribbean flair. A light Tart au Citron is the perfect finish, but chocolate lovers will want to try the "Tidation," chocolate ganache on a flourless chocolate cake glazed with still more chocolate. |

Description:
ST. JAMES PARISH. Il Tempio's Italian chef and owner take pains to offer the most authentic food. It's so good, in fact, that Luciano Pavarotti has dubbed it "the best Italian food in Barbados." Lofty praises aside, the restaurant does indeed serve some pretty wonderful food. For a taste of the old country, try the fettuccine alla carbonara or veal with onion and black grapes in chardonnay sauce. You'll be glad you did! |

Description:
ST. JAMES PARISH. The original Daphne's, in London's trendy Chelsea, has a sibling in Barbados! The island's restaurant is every bit as trendy, although the décor is sleeker and more contemporary. The food, of course, is fabulous. The menu is brimming with modern Italian dishes like shrimp and zucchini flower risotto, pappardelle with rabbit ragout and black olives, and mahi mahi with peperonata and fried zucchini. Selecting just one or two may prove difficult! Desserts are not to be missed – coffee and mascarpone charlotte, iced berries with hot white chocolate sauce, and millefeuilles with strawberries and chantilly cream are just a few of the options. Good selection of cocktails and Italian wines, too. |

Description:
CHRIST CHURCH PARISH. And now for something completely different! After a few days of fish, shrimp, fish, lobster and fish, it's probably a safe bet that you're going to be getting a bit weary of seafood. Lucky for you there's an alternative. OPA! is a family-run Greek restaurant with a relaxing vibe and awesome food at reasonable prices. The convivial atmosphere is perfect for feasting on souvlaki, gyros, spanakopita, moussaka and pastitsio. The lounge, while not particularly large, is fun for a pre- or post-dinner cocktail, and the views from the deck are wonderful. |
