AmbergrisCaye.com Home Forums The Cayes Ambergris Caye Where is the best Rice and Beans?

Thanks for all the input everyone! So far we have...

Mickeys
George's Kitchen
L'Esquinta (opposite the casa pan dulce)
Cannibals
Sunset Grill (didn't realize they served R&B at lunch, thx!)
Dianita's
Manuels Red Door (Tropical Take out)
El Fogon

Side notes: Anyone know where Shirley is now?
Lil Red: Is rice and beans on the menu at Casey's? We're probably going to want to order it on a regular basis if it is 'the best'.
TQ: Across from Coconuts? Do you mean that little snack bar with the bar stools on the street?
weile: it is fun! I'll let you all know the results!

Any other place that we shouldn't miss?

Yes, that is what I was told. I will verify this weekend - just for you.

Also, again, if you find yourself at Goldson Int'l, upstairs, ask for the "local special". A Belizean local introduced me to it - it's great!

I bet Shirley is the same one I used to buy from, at the Park, would also like to know if she is still cooking!

Thanks for being my guinea pig TQ! Let me know if its worth trying out!

If we ever decide to do the Best Rice and Beans in the country we'll go to Goldsons first!

Geezzz....I'm hungry! I don't think we had any "bad" rice and beans so to speak...too bad lobster won't be in season next week

that place across from coconuts...the white building? good food but i thought i remembered the portions were a bit small. ok for me, but maybe not for a hungry guy. this was last year, anyone else know?

but i agree w colo, as far as taste, i can't remember bad r&b anywhere...

El Fogon. Stewed chicken was good too. It was an experience in Belize culture, I think.

Do I have to mention Estel's? I had their stewed chicken my first day on the island and fell in love with the place.

I also agree on the restaurant on the second floor of the airport. I'd been on an all night flight, was hungry and tired and had 55 mins till my Maya flight to SP. The ladies in the restaurant were cheerful and laughed when at 11AM I ordered a Belikin with my "Taste of Belize" special. It was about as good as it gets in airport food. My buddy's been through there twice and never knew there was a restaurant.

Carolyn at Road Kill, Saturday afternoon and Monday night...EXCELLENT!!!

OK this may sound silly but...The Road Kill serves food? I had no idea! We were there almost nightly our last trip down and never saw food.

Yup!
