    Le Bistro is in West End between Tyll's Dive and Frank's gift shop.
    You walk up the couple of steps to the deck area between the two.

    Favourite restaurants in West End are the superb Dian's Garden of
    Eaten, and now, Le Bistro. Do you think I like Asian food? I think
    so.

    Maybe it's time to host a "Best Of the Bay Islands" Contest. Who
    has the best steak? Who has the best Shrimp Dish? (but obviously
    with a little more detail). What do you think Dean, do you think
    Roatanet would be a great site to host and post your votes??? We
    have some superb chefs and great restaurants on the island, I think
    they all deserve some great recognition. Make it an annual event
    where the public vote. Just a thought of the day.

    Happy eating.
