Chicken from the yard and so juicy you didn’t even know chicken could taste this good? Freshly fried fish cakes on a bed of frozen cabbage? All in the company of dogs, kittens, rabbits and a baby crocodile? The Crooked Tree Lodge truly is an idyllic place, and a great spot to pass by for lunch when returning from Lamanai. We had a great time with the kids Cory and Zach, as they showed us their animals and the beautiful premises. Zach went to the pond to release the baby turtle he had found, and the owners of the place, Mick and Angie, were really nice hosts – and congratulations to the new baby, little Kai! The Crooked Tree doesn’t only offer great fresh food for very affordable prices, but also has beautiful little private cabanas to spend the night, and a nice waterfront terrace for book reading and relaxing. I’ll definitely be back!
