         CHAZITO'S RESTAURANT FEATURED ON GUY FIERI'S HIT SHOW

  (Mr. CARTER of Georgia asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  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.
