Food and Drinks in Caribbean

You can't say Cuba without rum - it is that simple. The place is famous for its mojitos which can be had for about $1.5 to $4 (convertible pesos which is equal to USD) anywhere tourists are likely to show up. This might not sound like a lot, but it is an hefty amount for Cubans. So, instead they head to a government owned street bar which charges in moneda nacional (MN). Here locals skoal down rum (straight, warm and without ice) for as little as MN 2.5 (about 10 cents USD) for a huge shot. They might not sell the sophisticated mojitos, but you can mix your rum with a tuKola (local coke). It is a great place to meet the friendly Cubans and talk about politics, baseball and British football - probably all at the same time.

Take a shark filet, put some batter around it, deep fry it and put it in fried bread (the bake). Then go to a self-service salad bar with lots of vegetables, sauces and other condiments and you end up with a delicious sandwich that is too big to eat and you spend a few minutes wondering how to get started.
People come to Maracas Bay especially to eat a Bake 'n' Shark, and there are several stands selling them. Richard is the self-acclaimed original and first stand and definitely the most popular one. If you don’t want to eat shark, you could go for the alternative option: Bake 'n' Kingfish or, for vegetarians, Bake 'n' Veggie, but that is kind of missing the point.
Afterwards, you can digest on the large pretty beach of Maracas Bay.
