Dining in Cairns
Having spent alot of time in Cairns 20 years ago and having been back again recently I would have to agree that its not a destination for food how veer some of the larger hotels have really good eateries and along the marina there is some rather good spots and the food is fresh and pretty well priced.
The Esplanade is just a backpackers food hall catering to some better financed backpackers and some down the lower end I would steer clear even the barnacle Bills and some of the other places are just real tourist (international) traps check the marina places its pretty good and more top end.
