After a long stroll alongside the hotels or a long day at the beach, pass by this spot, Eduardo will help you out with a nice bowl full of goodies, vitamines and proteins. I suggest to take the pitaya bowl, home grown in Aruba.

A typical Aruban house is the place to find authentic Aruban food. We call it "crioyo food". Dishes like stewed goat meat served with "funchi" (polenta cake) or "pan bati" (aruban style pancakes) baked liver and onion and beef soup, are typical dishes served at the tables of the local community. You can try these dishes here.

A local delicacy at this food truck is the steak and cheese sandwich. Add some pickled red onions on top, some Papaya pepper sauce and garlic sauce, hmmm delicious. This spot is the place to be for a (very) late night snack. Usually crowded after the nightclubs closes. Another favourite is french fries with peanut sauce.

Essentials

Superfood is my favourite place to do groceries. It has a variety of Dutch products and popular American brands. What I like about Superfood is the cleanliness of the place and their fresh products. Take notice: Aruba has a ban on single use plastic bags, so you need to take a grocery bag with you for your groceries. I am providing one in the guesthouse which has printed pictures of Aruba's flora and fauna, made by an Aruban nature photographer.
