Just a couple of changes that people may or may not be aware of in Maho.
A new fast food burger place will open up next to Mr. Chow. Their goal is to have fast food, No waiting. One of the owners used to work at the Driftwood until recently.
Second, a proposed Mixed residential commercial development is proposed between Maho Pharmacy and the medical clinic. 18 one bedroom residential units and six street level commercial units. Of course course at this point it is only a proposed development. Who knows what the timeframe will be.

That sign by the clinic has been there quite some time. Another wishful thinking on someone's part.

Phil--I'm confused, why would another burger place open up in Maho, considering there is already one there?

Carol, it is sometimes difficult to rationalize another person’s vision.
They told me that it would be a fast food burger place. Food service like McDonald’s. The jury is out on whether or not that will work but they are currently working on the inside of the place.

Dr Phil--OK, not sure that's what I would go for on SXM, but starting any restaurant is a real crap shoot there.

It's also right across the street from an all inclusive resort which is something most of us here wouldn't go to SXM for either. Different strokes...

Do you know who the person from the Driftwood is who is one of the owners?

Yes, it is our tall Serbian friend who was serving drinks to the people in the lounge chairs at Driftwood. His name is Vuk. The last year or so he called himself Alex because it was easier for the tourists to remember that name.
