cv322 Posted November 17, 2011 #10 Share Posted November 17, 2011 I was home from work today & saw the same show. The chef who said "conch" spoke english with a foreign accent...I'm sure english wasn't his first language. Cut him some slack lol. And yes, it is yummy. :D. Favorite conch for me has been at Turtle Kraal's in Key West, at the Parrot Club in San Juan & at the 9 Beaches Resort in Bermuda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CapsR1 Posted November 18, 2011 #16 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Zorba's in Freeport has the best conch fritters, chowder, cracked conch. They are in the Port Lucaya marketplace and are open early for breakfast. Try the stewed conch with johnny cake and grits for breakfast; a true Bahamian delicacy and absolutely wonderful! You will be full for hours! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samzgirl84 Posted November 18, 2011 #22 Share Posted November 18, 2011 I've heard conch is really good. My son loves it. But I saw some men pulling it out of the conch shell, and I will never get past that. I could never eat it after seeing what it looks like. :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
