A big attraction
The biggest attraction is the culinary festival, which takes place on Wednesday evenings and Saturdays. Book well in advance, as it has become a major tourist attraction of the island. There are nearly 40 dishes arranged as a buffet, ranging from meat to Japanese food. It's not cheap, but no restaurants on the island are; virtually everything has to be brought from the mainland by boat. But the price includes dessert, and the restaurant is open other days as well. The menu is varied, with everything from crepes to sandwiches to fish. Credit cards are accepted.
