And spanakopita with tzatziki.

Right and we are both forgetting the dopio or hima.

bywarren, it is a chip butty, not buddy. Chip butties are the ultimate comfort food. High in carbos and extra high in tryptophan, which is a chemical we all enjoy.

Chip butty - take fat chips (in USA language that would be big fat fries), put them into a squishy white buttered crusty roll (almost impossible to find in Belize). Then add whichever condiments you prefer. Maybe salt & vinegar, maybe ketchup, maybe curry sauce (the curry sauce you get from chippies who make chip butties tends to be a gelatonous green substance that tastes like pure msg). Heaven - the british equivelent to a big mac hit.

Now back to the new restaurant. I am a big fan of Turkish food. What style of Turkish restaurant are we likely to see? Is it going to be a grill or ocakbasi style restaurant? Can't wait to hear more.

Bring on the Southern cooking! How about some pan fried chicken with real mashed potatoes and cream/milk gravey? A pie that is not key lime. Can you bake bread too? Or just some dinner rolls. Come on down Automan-when are you opening? Yes you can work at your own business. We eat out a lot but I cook at home some, just to get some good southern cooking.

absolutely pan fried chicken and real mashed potatoes. i normally just make biscuits, cornbread, and rolls, but my mother has an 80 year old sour dough hend me down that has been in the family for a long time. i bet i could get her to cut off a bit to bring down with us... if you like sour dough bread, that is.

not sure on a time frame yet. our first baby is due in 9 weeks. plus i am not sure where to look to find out what the island has in the way of empty locations that could be used as the restaurant (with maybe a very small living quarters attached.)

any ideas on how to find such a place?

Pedro2,

Their idea of proper baked beans is a can of Heinz beans warmed up....

Warren ....you should know that this is properly seved on TOAST.

FOr a Southern-style restaurant don't forget greens, black-eyed peas and cornbread!! Maybe some dirty rice? Biscuits & gravy? B-B-Q ribs will go over good. How 'bout sweet potatoes, you know, with marshmallows on top so it's all sticky sweet goodness!! I live in the South too, but over by Texas so our food may be a little different.

Nobody has mentioned banana pudding and sweet tea yet!
