Our local chefs have historically been participating on the Taste of the Caribbean a contest held yearly, to promote our island, and to make known the mix of nationalities that have composed the culture of Bonaire, and it’s influence on our cuisine. We have won 5 medals in 2014 and 7 in 2015!

Every year, Bonaire organises the Taste of Bonaire, for you visiting our island this is an opportunity to get close to the influences from around the world that have build up Bonaire, where you can taste what we call our local food, from Funchi and Repa, to Boontji Kunuku or Aros moro, all of them essential parts of the Bonairean diet & influences from africa and latin america, but also get the taste of our european influences, with fish or meat dishes, pasta & desserts.
