Destination Spotlight - Bora Bora - Off-Resort Eating

Wednesday January 9, 2008

It's hard to imagine that you'd need to leave the Bora Bora Nui resort, with its beautiful beaches and bountiful restaurants — but sometimes you just want to get out on your own. There are three places that are mentioned in every list of non-resort restaurants in Bora Bora: Bloody Mary's, The Bamboo House and La Bounty. You can probably guess what Bloody Mary's is known for, but it's also renowned for incredibly fresh seafood — the day's catch is arrayed on a bed of ice so you can see exactly what's available each evening. The Bamboo House is equally renowned for its fresh-caught seafood (you really have to wonder about places that aren't seafood havens on a tropical island). The Polynesian menu is large and overwhelmingly tempting, and the restaurant is one of the few on the island that is open on Sundays. For a meal on the cheaper side, head to La Bounty, a small open-air restaurant that specializes in pizza — an unexpected but welcome change of pace once you're tired of fish! On the chance you're not sick of seafood, they also make a mean ceviche.
