Where
to Eat
To
cut food costs, many guests on Little Cayman opt for buying a few groceries. The
lone grocery store is the Village Square, next to the car rental agency. Open
9-1 and 4-6, Monday through Saturday, the store stocks a little of everything: house wares,
bait and tackle, VCR rentals, medicines, and groceries.
A
surprising number of resorts feature top-notch dining. Pirates Point showcases
the talents of Cordon Bleu-trained owner-chef Gladys Howard and serves up
gourmet cuisine; the Southern Cross Club features a Culinary Institute of
America-trained chef. The island has only one stand-alone restaurant.
Hungry
Iguana, (345) 948-0007, $-$$. The Hungry Iguana is near the airport.
The namesake of the seaside eatery is an iguana often seen at the airport. To
honor the hungry herbivore, the restaurant sports a 40-foot mural of the local
lizard. Continental buffet breakfasts start the day; lunch and dinner feature
jerk chicken, grouper sandwiches, prime rib, and burgers.
