fiogf49gjkf0d San Ignacio has several good, inexpensive
restaurants
. The Saturday
market
is the best in Belize, with local farmers bringing in freshly harvested produce, and you can pick up good fresh
bread
and and snacks at the Torres Bakery in West Street.
San Ignacio is a popular weekend spot for Belizeans and there's a range of
live music and dancing
on offer. The
Western Bar
, overlooking the market, is a typically Belizean
club
: dark and extremely noisy. Next door, overlooking the river, the
Culture Club
(above
El Cenote
sports bar) is a much better bet, with Latin and Afro-Cuban sounds mixing with Belizean beats. The
Blue Angel
disco, on Hudson Street, has bands at weekends, but has lost its pre-eminent position in the local music scene to the
Cahal Pech Tavern
, on the hilltop next to Cahal Pech Maya site.
Eva's Bar
, 22 Burns Ave. Belizean dishes and daily specials, though service is variable. Usually busy in the evenings, when it's a great place to meet travellers and local tour operators.
Hannah's
, 5 Burns Ave. Delicious, authentic Indian cuisine, freshly prepared and worth the wait.
Martha's Kitchen
, West St, behind
Eva's
. Under the guesthouse of the same name, and just as well-run. Great breakfasts, local coffee, pizza and traditional Creole food. There's usually a vegetarian choice, and always delicious cakes for dessert.
Maxim's
, Far West St, behind
Martha's
. One of the best of San Ignacio's numerous Chinese restaurants, with large portions.
Serendib Restaurant
, 27 Burns Ave. Excellent Sri Lankan curries and seafood at very reasonable prices, and with good service too.
