It is located next to the Palms and across the street from the Tradewinds. Mike is the owner, the cook and even does laundry for 30 pesos a pound and that includes wash and dry using a dryer not hanging.Quote:

Wednesday is beef stroganoff with pasta thursday is chicken curry with rice and friday is schnitzel with mashed a nice gravy, veggies and a little salad. The schnitzel is my second favorite and I know schnitzel since I lived in Germany frpm 86 until 98 I should be able to recognize a good schnitzel. He buys ingredients at playero and I dont know how he does it for the price, but I sure appreciate it since I live close and the togo cartons are also only 100 and get always get three or four fish and schnitzel to go as well they are that tasty to me. He must love to cook and he told me that he does it for the staff and the small profit pays for the meals of the staff so they have lunch which is really nice of him I think. Enjoy the deals in sosua guys because meals like this are as close to home cooked as I get and 100 pesos only I am very happy.
He needs to buy wholesale.Quote:

The place is down at the other end of the strip so it is great for those staying at places like Coco Hotel, Europa, Plaza Sosua and Mary Rose. Much shorter walk than going all the way into the center of town for breakfast.Quote:

Did it ever occur to you that just perhaps, his "main business" is not this restaurant, and it is a beard for a much bigger enterprise?Quote:

Sounds like it would still be a good deal at a higher price, 150 or even 200 pesos. Heck, up here in gringo-land, "Casa de Payaso" charges the equivalent of 125 pesos for an Egg McMuffin. The one thing that will stop me from trying it is the free breakfast with my room at Casa Cayena.Quote:
