Gateway of India Value INDIAN Although some island r estau-
rants might feature an Indian dish on their menus from time to time,
this is the only pur ely Indian restaurant in the Cayman I slands, and
as such, it 's often sought out as a change of pace fr om Caribbean
cuisine. The decor is warm, folkloric, and charming, with the interior
illuminated with lanterns of embroidered fabric. Dishes are, as a mat-
ter of policy, prepared with a “medium” degree of spiciness, which you
can doctor by instructing the staff (most of whom come fr om either
Goa or M umbai) according to y our wishes. There's a wide array of
meat, fish, and v egetarian dishes to choose fr om, but ongoing fav or-
ites include chicken korma in a mild curr y sauce; chicken tikka
masala, cooked in a medium-spicy , tomato-flav ored butter sauce;
and lamb vindaloo, ser ved in a tomato-based, spicy curr y sauce. All
main courses come with saffr on-flavored rice, pickles, y ogurt, salad,
and Indian breads. The lunch buffet is an ex cellent value on G rand
Cayman.

Over the Edge CARIBBEAN The ambience at this eater y is just
the opposite of what you'll find at the glossy venues of West Bay Road
and downtown George Town. This remote and raffish r estaurant is
something of a mecca for r esidents of the sparsely populated N orth
Side. A raucous cr owd at the bar gr eets you at the entrance. I nside,
the dining room walls block out sometimes-ferocious winds that bat-
ter this place during storms. Outside, you'll find a wharf-style terrace
with pilings that extend straight do wn into the seabed. The vie ws
from the terrace hav e been described as mystical, especially on calm,
moonlit nights. L unches are relatively simple, focusing on Cayman-
style steamed fish, pan-fried conch steak, turtle steak with port sauce,
sandwiches stuffed with either tuna or mahimahi, and chef 's salads.
Dinners ar e mor e elaborate, featuring charbr oiled r ock-lobster tail,
lobster thermidor , sav ory jumbo shrimp in P ernod sauce, grilled
wahoo, and grilled breast of chicken with Dijonnaise sauce.
Old M an Bay, Nor th Side. & 345/947-9568. Lunch CI$5- CI$32; dinner CI$10-
CI$32. AE, MC, V. Daily 7am-10pm (bar till 1am).
