Miami part 3-Bahama Fish Market

Bahama Fish Market is one of those amazing finds that I just happened to come across when researching Miami the first time we were there. I was googling Cuban food and found Three Guys from Miami, which helped us you with our picks of places to eat down there. Bahama Fish Market was so good the first time, that we decided to put it on our list to go back to. It's a fish market with a large restaurant with a HUGE counter to sit at if you want and extremely fresh fish. Most of the customers are Cuban and the waitresses speak limited English. The prices are reasonable and the food is delicious.


Smoky fish dip. This stuff is so good that I wish that I could eat this all the time.



Crab and fish croquettes---not full of fillers like some croquettes are.

I am not sure what the Cubans do to their rice, but it looks like plain rice--yet doesn't taste like plain rice. Maybe they cook it in broth or something? Anyone know the answer to this? And one of Chris' favorite foods-fried plantains.

The special of the day was squid and rice. It looks black because of squid ink. Doesn't look really appetizing, but it was delicious.


And my fried scallops. They weren't heavily breaded, so they were light and really tasty. Yummy!
If you happen to make a trip out to Miami and love seafood, you'll want to make a trip to this place--cheap, delicious Cuban seafood!
