The decor boasts visually spectacular thick limestone walls, stone roofs held in place by cedar beams, and high ceilings, which help to keep the rooms cool during hot summer days. The Pickled Onion, an upscale casual bar and restaurant has thrived as a Bermuda hotspot since 1998.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3172\" style=\"width: 669px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.tripcentral.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Pickled_Onion.png\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3172\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3172\" title=\"Pickled_Onion\" alt=\"The Pickled Onion restaurant\" src=\"http:\/\/www.tripcentral.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Pickled_Onion.png\" width=\"659\" height=\"374\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tripcentral.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Pickled_Onion.png 659w, https:\/\/www.tripcentral.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Pickled_Onion-300x170.png 300w, https:\/\/www.tripcentral.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Pickled_Onion-136x77.png 136w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 659px) 100vw, 659px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-3172\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thepickledonion.com\/index2.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Pickled Onion<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong><!--more-->Le Cellier, Epcot Center<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Located below the Chateau at the Canada Pavilion of Disney&#8217;s Epcot is Le Cellier Steakhouse. The name translated into &#8220;the cellar,&#8221; which explains why there are no windows! The ambient lighting and stone arches, though, creates a warm and inviting atmosphere. Steak definitely steals the show here, but the menu offers a wide variety of dining options.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mon Ami Gabi, Las Vegas<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A classic French bistro, Mon Ami Gabi will tempt your taste buds with authentic cuisine prepared by Executive Chef Terry Lynch. The menu features\u00a0features classics such as onion soup au gratin with bubbling baked gruyere, roast chicken &amp; frites grand-m\u00e8re style with mushrooms, bacon and pearl onions, fris\u00e9e &amp; bacon salad with a soft-poached egg and croutons, \u00a0as well as the trademark steak frites. My mouth is watering just writing about this menu!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Joseph&#8217;s, Barbados<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Oh No!!! This was highly recommended by one of our travel agents, but sadly, it has closed since then.<br \/>\n&gt;&gt;big sigh&lt;&lt;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Scotchies, Ocho Rios, Jamaica<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If jerk chicken and pork sound good, you&#8217;ll love Scotchies! Deemed one of the best Jerk food stops on the north coast of Jamaica, Scotchies offers more than just a meal, but phenomenally friendly service and a stunning location.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3169\" style=\"width: 1610px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.tripcentral.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Scotchies_Jamaica.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3169\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3169\" title=\"Scotchies_Jamaica\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/www.tripcentral.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Scotchies_Jamaica.jpg\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tripcentral.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Scotchies_Jamaica.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/www.tripcentral.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Scotchies_Jamaica-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.tripcentral.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Scotchies_Jamaica-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.tripcentral.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Scotchies_Jamaica-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-3169\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo by: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thebluehousejamaica.com\/ocho_rios_dining.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Blue House Jamaica<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Koal Keel, Angilla<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This relatively new restaurant is making a name for itself by mixing the finest French and West Indian style cuisines.

According to our travel agents, the champagne Sunday brunch at The Royal Palm restaurant is unparalleled. Naturally elegant with a low-key ambiance, the view is almost as good as the food.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3168\" style=\"width: 979px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.tripcentral.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/royal-palm-restaurant.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3168\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-3168\" title=\"royal palm restaurant\" alt=\"The Royal Palm restaurant\" src=\"http:\/\/www.tripcentral.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/royal-palm-restaurant.jpg\" width=\"969\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tripcentral.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/royal-palm-restaurant.jpg 969w, https:\/\/www.tripcentral.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/royal-palm-restaurant-300x111.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.tripcentral.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/royal-palm-restaurant-768x285.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 969px) 100vw, 969px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-3168\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ottleys.com\/royal-palm-restaurant.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ottleys<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Persian Room, Australia<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Persian Room in Pyrmont features authentic Persian dishes infused with wide a range of exotic spices cooking techniques.

Not only is the food fantastic, but the mojitos were nothing short of spectacular &#8212; of course you can also choose from more than 50 beers and 100 wines. The menu is simple, as is the decor &#8212; one room packed with tables that spill out onto the patio in the summer. It has a true neighbourhood restaurant feel.
