To anyone here who has been to Hope Town more recently than me (which
may be almost everyone on the group):

Many years ago, my dad took us into Hope Town. One of my most vivid
memories was going some place in town and having Manhattan-style conch
chowder that was simply outstanding.

I was there last year at this time. The restaurant in question is
probably either Captain Jacks or Harbours Edge. They both have good
basic food and are right on the water.
