Floor Speech

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. CARTER of Georgia. Madam Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Chazito's Latin Cuisine, a restaurant in Pooler, Georgia, for being featured on Guy Fieri's hit show ``Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives.''

The owner of the restaurant, Chaz Ortiz, came to Savannah over 10 years ago and has been bringing Puerto Rican culture and flavor to our district ever since.

Chaz's restaurant, which takes traditional family recipes and puts a twist on them, has been a crowd favorite at local venues like the Doggie Carnival Festival in Forsyth Park for years.

In 2016, the restaurant grew from a fleet of two food trucks to a fully functioning brick-and-mortar store, demonstrating the success of small businesses in Savannah and the growth hard work and patience brings.

Chazito's honor marks the second time a restaurant from coastal Georgia has been featured on Guy Fieri's show. The first was on Tybee Island.

Madam Speaker, I am extremely proud of Chaz, his entire staff, and the business he and his family have grown.
