Restaurants and Local Food in
Andaman & Nicobar Islands
The cuisine of Andaman is like the island itself-
tropical, exotic and refreshing. The sea that is all
around has a defining effect on the island's culture,
livelihood and cuisine. There is little here, in which you
will not find traces of the sea. The food here, hence, is
dominated by seafood preparations and you don't
want to miss the fish delicacies here. Other than
seafood too, the staple diet is essentially non-
vegetarian.
However, as the island is becoming an increasingly
popular tourist spot, the resorts and other eating
places will give you options of Indian, Chinese and a
few more cuisines. also, the fruits here are popular and
refreshing. You can find Mangoes, Bananas,
Pineapples, Guava and more. One can also sip in the
truly refreshing and tropical coconut water here.
