Restaurants on Tahiti
The result today throughout French Polynesia is a
unique cuisine, a melange of French, Chinese and Polynesian food which provides
unending pleasure for locals and visitors alike. The people of Tahiti and her
islands are dedicated to the preparation and presentation of fine food, and as
the three races of French Polynesia – Tahitian, European and Chinese – have
intermarried, producing a thoroughly mixed race of people, so too has their
cuisine become an eclectic blend of cooking styles. Fresh fish of all kinds,
whether tuna, bonito, mahimahi or the many variety of lagoon fish are prepared
in many different ways -- roasted, grilled or boiled -- and form the
centrepiece of typically Tahitian meal tables. Meat dishes are also highly
favoured, due to the abundance of high cuts from New Zealand.
