About
The Bahamas' most beloved dish — conch (the large sea snail) that has been pounded flat, marinated in lime, coated in seasoned breadcrumbs, and deep-fried until golden and crispy. The tenderising process ('cracking') is essential — done properly, the flesh is juicy and sweet with a satisfying crunch. Served with peas 'n' rice, coleslaw, and a squeeze of fresh lime, cracked conch is found at every Bahamian restaurant from Nassau shacks to Out Island beach bars. It is the definitive Bahamian food experience.
