Restaurants are about more than just food.<\/p>\n
When we go out to eat, we arent doing so because we have to we do it because we want to.<\/p>\n
Because restaurants make our lives more interesting. They break up the monotony, they teach us, they bring us together and they make us happy.<\/p>\n
And for those who didnt realize it before, this past year has reminded us of just how integral a role the restaurant and hospitality industry plays for us, how much we need it.<\/p>\n
Thats particularly true when traveling.<\/p>\n
Visiting a place and eating in its restaurants teaches us so much about its culture, its people and the things people care about.<\/p>\n
The massive disruption to the global travel industry did not spare the Caribbean, and it forced the regions restaurants to immediately adapt to new realities.<\/p>\n
Happily, theyve done that and, all across the Caribbean, travelers can dine safely, securely and comfortably.<\/p>\n
This is the eighth annual edition of what began in 2013 as a landmark list of the 50 best restaurants in the Caribbean and remains the leading annual celebration of restaurants region-wide.<\/p>\n
While weve focused this year on destinations that are open to visitors (and with restaurant sectors that are open), our evaluating criteria remain the same: we focus on the three pillars that define the restaurant experience: food, service and ambience.<\/p>\n
And this year weve added a fourth every restaurant on the list must at least give diners the option of eating outdoors or in an open-air space.<\/p>\n
Lets not forget that this industry only exists because of the risk-takers, entrepreneurs and adventurers who choose to open restaurants and serve the food, drink and hospitality that helps enrich our daily lives.<\/p>\n
So lets celebrate them and our favorite places to eat. And when you next come back to the Caribbean, make sure you pay them a visit.<\/p>\n
Here are the best restaurants in the Caribbean for 2021.<\/p>\n
