Dining in the Turks and Caicos Islands is a surprisingly casual affair. Travelers can sit back, relax, and enjoy the fresh catch of the day. The price of meals, however, is not always quite so relaxed. You'll find everything from small, family-owned shops to larger, fine dining restaurants on the islands. Consider what and where you'd like to eat. Perhaps you'd prefer to avoid the larger restaurants in favor of some local color, or maybe you'd rather dine first class. Alternately, you might just be looking for something a little nicer than your usual. Whatever you decide, you'll find what you want on these islands. Due to the Islands' location and size, most foods must be imported to the Turks and Caicos. This causes the cost of food to be higher than it is on other islands; it may also be considered high by U.S. standards as well. Still, low-cost meals can cost as little as $5(USD). For something a little nicer, expect to spend between $10(USD) and $15(USD). At the most expensive of places, expect to pay more than $20(USD). Tax, and sometimes a tip, will be added to your bill. Those in search of the Islands' finest can find it, but the Turks and Caicos' restaurants will also require a bit of preparation. Casual dress can be perfectly appropriate in many dining establishments, but the top-notch restaurants may request that patrons dress accordingly. Black tie may be desirable in some restaurants, but calling ahead is the surest way to find out what to wear. Another reason to call is to make a reservation. While most restaurants won't require them, some restaurants will fill up during the high season, and posh restaurants may prefer reservations year-round. To stay on the safe side, make a call and talk to the restaurant before you plan to dine. No matter where you go in the Turks and Caicos Islands, you'll certainly find delicious dining, but it may come with a higher price tag than on other islands. Related Articles
