# BREADFRUIT
Bring it as cou cou, steamed, pickled, fried, served as chips or roasted! We aren’ t partial!
# CUTTERS Bajans love salt bread with a wide range of accompanying options – Cheese cutter, ham cutter, bread & two( Fishcake cutter), fish cutter or corned beef cutter we love them all!
# BUS STOPS Never get lost in Bim – Just follow the“ Bus to city stop” back to town
# DOMINOES
A Great Past time with friends or strangers

# BAJAN ANTICS
It’ s said that you can know a Bajan anywhere in the world by their antics- the way they shake the ice in their glass to make the drink cold faster or by the way they swear to name a few.
