Ignore any entreaties to visit the Friday Night Fish Fry in Oistins.
It's a dreadful tourist trap with really poor food on paper plates and third-rate local musicians butchering Bob Marley songs very loudly.
Elswehere the West Coast is more upmarket but food and particularly wine is very expensive in most restaurants.
At The Tides restaurant late last year we noted the surf and turf ( 6oz fillet, three prawns ) was US$90 and a bottle of supermaket Sauvigno Blanc US$125. You can eat in cheaper joints but you've got to be a fan of the deep-fat fryer and mac'n'cheese.
