Dining in Tahiti
With its French influence, Restaurants in Tahiti
are excellent. There are several fine restaurants
in Papeete with fresh sushi bars above the Papeete
Market and lots of great cafes and budget eateries
on the streets, notably along the waterfront.
All around French Polynesia and Moorea you'll
come across small restaurants where you'll get
great food. Even the large resort restaurants
have great dining.
Nightlife
too is good, but restricted to Papeete and a
few spots around west Tahiti and the north coast
of Moorea. On all the outer islands, nightlife
is limited to resort entertainment which includes
traditional dance shows and feast nights - these
are not to be missed and French Polynesian dancing
is amongst the best in the South Pacific.

LES
ROULOTTES
Les Roulottes are mobile diners that set up
shop around 6 pm each afternoon along the boat
dock and serve hot meals until the wee hours
of the morning. These two dozen licensed, colorful
food-vans provide a variety of inexpensive but
fresh and well prepared dishes, as well as a
bar stool to sit and watch the waterfront scene
of Papeete-by-night. The sights are almost as
good as the food. Here you can order barbecue
steaks, chicken and shish-kabob, served with
French fries, Poisson cru and Russian potato
salad. Specialty diners serve pizza cooked in
a wood-burning stove, couscous, fish and chips,
Tahitian food, barbecue veal and freshly worked
hot delicacies from the provinces of China.
Your dinner can be a veritable movable feast,
with a tempting choice of crepes for dessert.
No alcohol is served here, but the bars and
nightclubs are just across the street.
