The cuisine of the BVI's are like mom's cooking. They are old yet they are the ones being returned to after a tiresome day. They also get tastier as eating them becomes a habit. Once popped in the trap, the dominant tastes are spicy and sweet, kind of tasting both worlds. The common ingredients are seafood, big meaty fishes, shellfish and crustaceans.
Common appetizers
The typical primers in eateries in the islands include kallaloo, which a soup that has different versions but with one common ingredient, green leafy veggies. Others are salt-fish salad, herring gundy,and fungi, not the skin nuisance. This is a cornmeal dumpling made sweet with a touch of island veggies.
Delightful main dishes
After the entrée comes the main dish. Travelers may choose from a wide array of BVI's main dishes but they should never fail to try the crunch creole. From the name itself, this food is aboriginal, a savory stew with sautee elements, hot pepper, salt and pork. There is also Curried goat and chicken and rice with Spanish peppers.
The dessert
People with sweet tooth would also love BVI's for their desserts. There is sweet potato pie, homemade ice creams with native fruit flavors, and dumplings made of fruits.
Beverage
To push everything down that long winding road, BVI's also offer irresistible drinks. Travelers may sample Cruzan rum, the country's official economy-boosting drink. Then there are also sodas and water available.
