Side Dishes
Side dishes in the Bahamas are classic caribbean. The main side dish of the Bahamas, as with many caribbean and Latin American countries, is rice and beans (or rice and peas which is the same thing). White rice is also very popular, especially when the main course has a rice, thick sauce, like steamed conch.
As well as rice and peas, plantain is also hugely popular, as is coleslaw. You will also find plenty of classics that would be familiar to you if you like Southern US food, like macaroni and cheese. As with anywhere in the world these days, fries are also massively popular
