Check Maria and Carmen for Authentic Eats in Placencia, Belize

Placencia, Belize has it all. More than 12 miles of beaches. Easy access to some of the most stunning cays found anywhere in the Caribbean. The largest barrier reef in the Western Hemisphere. Dive sites teeming with sea life from turtles to whale sharks. World-class fly fishing on the lagoon side. You can even find/enjoy luxury accommodations like Chabil Mar in Placencia! There’s simply no shortage of adventures to be had here. Still, some of my fondest memories of this charming village were made on stools at local haunts like Maria and Carmen (also known as Carmen and Maria) sampling traditional treats on the side of the road.

Wish you were here pulling up a stool at Maria and Carmen?
