Kuchyňa Himary stavia na Iónskom mori a gréckom dedičstve regiónu. Typické sú grilované a vyprážané čerstvé ryby a morské plody, jedlá s gréckym vplyvom ako souvlaki, gyros a grilované mäso, ako aj albánska a stredomorská klasika. Na pobreží nájdete aj veľmi dobrú pizzu z pece na drevo, neapolskú pizzu a talianske cestoviny. Väčšina jedálnych lístkov sa riadi tým, čo sa v to ráno ulovilo.
Vezmite si hotovosť. V Albánsku sa platí prevažne v lekoch (asi 100 ALL za 1 €). Mnohé menšie taverny, plážové podniky a kaviarne berú len hotovosť alebo ju uprednostňujú, hoci väčšie a lepšie podniky čoraz častejšie prijímajú karty. V meste Himara sú bankomaty, no majte pri sebe dosť lekov na jedlo. Keď vypadne signál, môžu vypadnúť aj platobné terminály.
Na západoeurópske pomery je to stále výhodné. Jedlo v neformálnej taverne alebo pizza vyjde zhruba na 8–15 € na osobu, večera s čerstvou rybou v reštaurácii pri mori stojí viac. Ryby sa zvyčajne predávajú na kilá, preto si pred objednaním overte váhu a cenu. Cestovatelia s nízkym rozpočtom vyžijú približne s 30–50 € na deň so všetkým. Káva a koláč stoja pár eur.
Do väčšiny neformálnych taverien môžete prísť bez rezervácie. V júli a auguste sa obľúbené podniky pri mori a tie s lepším hodnotením počas večere zaplnia. Preto sa oplatí rezervovať si stôl deň vopred alebo prísť skôr, približne pred 20:00. Mimo hlavnej sezóny je rezervácia potrebná len zriedka.
Najviac ich je na mestskej promenáde v Himare a na nábreží Spile, kde sú taverny pri mori, pizzerie a kaviarne jedna vedľa druhej. Dobre hodnotené podniky sú aj hore v starom meste a smerom na juh k obci Qeparo, pozdĺž pobrežnej cesty SH8. Náš sprievodca uvádza pri každom podniku overené hodnotenie, takže ich môžete porovnať a nemusíte sa spoliehať na jediný tip.
