The budget man is a must stop for a meal when you are in Caye Caulker, located right on the beach you can't miss him! He's always there for lunch and sometimes for dinner and you can't beat the portions or the prices! More

Really good, tasty food, it was supposed to be a snack but I couldn't stop myself eating it all! Better than the food in most restaurants. And he's a comedy character too. More
