Constitution Dock is the perfect place for yacht-watching, as well as gobbling fresh fish-and-chips from one of the punts (floating fish-and-chips shops) moored on the water. Ask for the daily specials, such as local blue grenadier or trevally, which cost A$7–A$16, or go for some freshly shucked oysters. The city's main restaurant areas include the docks and the streets around Salamanca Place.
South American food culture has inspired the menu of this eclectic but sophisticated eatery on Hobart's waterfront. Blending fresh Tasmanian produce with centuries of South American flavor refinement, Frank is a lively spot for a reason. Cocktails are also a focus, especially those made with South and Central American spirits such as tequila and chili liqueur. Despite the heavy focus on meat, vegetarians are also well looked after.
