It was back for its second year, and this edition of Antigua and Barbuda Restaurant Week was a big hit. 

The festival put the spotlight on the twin-island destination’s buzzing restaurant scene, from its fine-dining eateries to vibrant local hotspots. 

It was also a dynamic journey through the destination’s culture and gastronomy, buoyed by a lineup of all-Caribbean celebrity chefs, from Digby Stridiron to Nadine Brown. 

One of the highlights was the “Eat Like a Local” program, which created an island-wide map featuring top local eateries, a rather unique and welcome addition to the Caribbean food festival landscape. 

If you’re planning to enjoy the food here, though, May isn’t the only time to enjoy the destination’s food scene. 

It’s a year-round foodie paradise.
