Snappers/Caribe Restaurant

 I had seen the Snappers Restaurant many times at the Mega Plaza, but it was vacant, then I saw this other restaurant called Caribe - turns out it's the new Snappers.  The new Snappers is a much better location - its right on the water.  

They had a menu on large chalkboards mounted to the wall behind the cash registers, they also had a long cafeteria style area, we were curious.  Turns out that it's an either/or situation.  You can choose food from the long counters, or you can go to the cash register and order off the menu on the chalkboard, little confusing at first.   The cafeteria line was an a la carte,  it included sides like potato salad, rice/beans, white rice, cooked whole bananas, main dishes were conch dish and bbq chicken thighs.  Looked interesting but I like to try the fish plates, we ordered a fish filet plate with a side of rice/bean mix and a hamburger.  The Fish plate was good, came with a sauce on the side that was a little too spicy for me.  The fish was baked and delicious, the rice and beans had a spice that I couldn't name, but it was good also.  The hamburger was average, the sauce with it came with a spicy mayo and french fries for the side.  Both plates included drinks and the price was great!  $6.60 for the fish plate and $6.00 for the hamburger.  You can't beat those prices, we will be back.  They also had a breakfast menu, for $5 you could get 2 eggs, bacon and pancakes.  

The view was nice too.

    I make Honduran Rice & Beans fairly regularly, I learned it from a former client who used to live in Honduras. The spices in your dish probably were cumin, chili powder, and black pepper. The coconut oil mixed with these spices gives you a very unique taste.

Lawson Rock Deli and Market - Sandy Bay

Image
 Sandy Bay takes up a lot of area on the west side of the island.  Part of that includes the exclusive subdivision of Lawson Rock.  They have a condo building with a deli/market inside.  We've driven past hundreds of times and finally decided to check it out.  It's a cute little deli that serves breakfast and lunch.  They also sell meats and cheeses like an old fashioned deli, plus gifts! We ordered the lunch specials.  One Lasagna plate with salad and the other was their chicken & rice dish that was served with a side of coleslaw (odd combination).  Both were delicious!  The lasagna was $10 and the chicken/rice was $7.20.   We'll be back!

Eldon's Grocery Store

 Having just moved into the condo and there is not a single piece of food in the condo we definitely needed to go to the grocery store.  According to what I've read there are two Eldon Grocery stores and another grocery store on the island.  Thankfully one of the Eldon's is only 2 blocks from our condo.  We walked there and took a taxi back with all our food.   We spent a total of $175.  The prices aren't too bad if you stick to their generic brands.  The most expensive thing we bought was a 12 pack of Diet Coke for a little over $6.  Included in the $175 was milk, cheese, bacon, sausages, bagels, cream cheese, flour, sugar, brown sugar, salt and pepper, ketchup, mustard, bbq sauce, snacks, some chips, bread, peanutbutter, jam, and a few other things.  It's interesting and I should have taken some pictures - but their flour and sugars come in clear bags.  The bread is square! I also bought a 1 liter of Coca Cola in a glass bottle fo...

Roatan Yacht Club - French Harbor

Image
 The Yacht club opened up a few months ago from Covid.  We met a new friend there for lunch.  It's a little upper class than we usually try.  They served water in goblets.  Greg ordered the Tequila shrimp tacos and I ordered the pasta fettucine.  Greg said his was good, you get a large plate with 4 little tacos, my pasta was good, but very oily.  When I was done there was at least a 1/4 inch of oil on the bottom of the dish.  This won't make it to the top of our list.
