Pirates Arms
( 4225001; Independence Ave; mains Rs 110-260; 9am-11pm Mon-Sat, noon-11pm Sun)
Despite its old-
fashioned decor and faded furniture, this central cafe-restaurant is
the
meeting point in
Victoria and veritably thrums the minute it opens its doors for breakfast (served until
11am). The menu is as long as your arm and runs from salads and sandwiches to pizzas
and meat or fish dishes, all well prepared and well priced.
Restaurant du Marché
( 4225451; Market St; mains Rs 125-220; breakfast & lunch Mon-Sat)
The food is fresh and tasty at
this unpretentious yet appealing eatery within the market (upstairs). Typical dishes include
smoked fish salad, tuna steak and fish fillet in coconut milk. It's a good place to catch loc-
al vibes and enjoy plenty of local colour.

( 4346020; Eden Island; mains Rs 180-500; noon-late Mon-Sat)
A few kilometres south of town,
this open-air restaurant overlooking the marina at Eden Island provides an enchanting din-
ing experience with delectable food. Everything's pretty good, but if you want a recom-
mendation, go for the Mega Burger or the seared tuna salad. Save some room for an ice
cream with chocolate sauce.
Sam's Pizzeria
( 4322499; Francis Rachel St; mains Rs 160-250; lunch & dinner)
Step into this cool spot for an es-
cape from the busy street. Walls are adorned with paintings by local artist George Camille,
which gives the place a splash of style. Get things going with pizzas cooked in a wood-
fired oven, salads, pasta or grilled fish and meat. And yes, it's open on Sunday - a rarity
in Victoria. Take away is available.
