Atlantis has established itself as one of the <strong>top Sunday buffets<\/strong> on the island and we consider it a must-do for visitors. In fact it has become so popular that it is now offered on <strong>Wednesdays<\/strong> as well.<\/p>\n<p>At Atlantis, an experienced culinary team works mainly with <strong>fresh local ingredients<\/strong> to prepare dishes in the traditional West Indian style.<\/p>\n<p>Some of our personal favourites include\u00a0pickled green bananas, pumpkin fritters, fried plantain, pepperpot (a delicious meat stew), flying fish, mahi-mahi fish, baked chicken, 3 cheese macaroni pie, and peas &#038; rice. If you have a sweet tooth you&#8217;ll love the wonderful desserts which typically include\u00a0fresh fruit,\u00a0bread pudding with traditional Bajan rum sauce, cakes and coconut bread.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1432\" src=\"https:\/\/barbados.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/atlantis-restaurant-buffet.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"742\" srcset=\"https:\/\/barbados.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/atlantis-restaurant-buffet.jpg 750w, https:\/\/barbados.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/atlantis-restaurant-buffet-300x297.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The buffets are <strong>all you can eat<\/strong>, with\u00a0guests welcome to return for more of their favourite dishes or to sample anything they missed the first time around.<\/p>\n<p>This is a great option for <strong>family dining<\/strong>\u00a0as the wide selection ensures that everyone will find something they enjoy.
