Seafood features strongly on hotel and restaurant menus in Port-Vila and the main towns. The numerous ethnic backgrounds of the inhabitants of Vanuatu are reflected in different styles of cooking. Chinese and French influences are the strongest.
Food is generally excellent everywhere.
French cheese, p t s, bread, cognac and wine are available in Port-Vila's two major shops. Local fruit is excellent. Port-Vila has several nightclubs with music and dancing. There are also two cinemas and a drive-in. Evening cruises are organised with wine, snacks and island music.
