El Fogon Restaurant

Ambergris Caye, Belize, Travel Guide

"Giant pots filled with soups, stews, and curries simmer over open flames at El Fogón, a local staple in downtown San Pedro known for using age-old cooking techniques to craft flavorful Belizean dishes like beef stew and fish soup paired with coconut rice. Open from Monday to Saturday for lunch and dinner, this tiny restaurant gets busy, so reservations are recommended." - Carley Rojas Avila Carley Rojas Avila Carley Rojas Avila is a bilingual travel writer, editor, and content marketer.
