Barbados
An authentic little place set in the pebbled driveway of a suburban house just north of the Crane complex, Delon's is a great choice for a cheap meal or a cold beer. Food is tasty and unpretentious – choose from rotis, cutters, bakes and more filling mains and pull up a table while the resident DJ belts out the tunes.
If you're heading to the beaches in the area pick up a couple of cutters to go. Breakfast is also offered. Do it like a local and wash it down with a Banks.
