Icoa Cafe LIGHT F ARE This cafe was mo ved in 2005 fr om a
Caymanian house to its current place in a minimalist shop. Although
some of its charm was lost in the transition, the cafe can now seat 30,
as opposed to only six in its pr evious home. The mosaic-tile floor is
as fancy as this place gets. B ut if y ou're in the mood for pastries,
sandwiches, or wraps, this is as good a place as any. Your best bets are
the pan-seared-salmon wrap, the ham-and-brie sandwich, or one of
the salads. Specialty breads are the highlights of the menu.
