Food scene
This is a local fisherman’s pier where the boats come in and they prepare the fish caught that day for sale by the Pound and cooked on the premises with Fries and Plantain. I recommend that you try the shrimp, again, order by the pound (peal & eat) excellent I point out “plastic plates plastic fork is the cutlery” delivered on paper and eat with your fingers the Aruban way – enjoy – as it is fresh and good.
NB Believe it or not you may need reservations 584-8401 or go at 3.30 pm – 4 pm and keep your fingers crossed that they’ll serve you

We know it’s hard to resist the aroma of chicken sizzling on the rotisserie, so just follow your nose downtown to La Granja on Hospitallstraat. This family-owned restaurant with Peruvian roots is so popular that it is now a successful chain with branches throughout Florida.
In addition to the restaurant’s famous chicken, it’s a great opportunity to try fried yucca and plantains, garlic potatoes, yellow rice, and grilled fresh fish, which are caught locally.
Food is served family-style and ordered from the counter, and you pick it up at the next counter.

What is it with Aruba and Chinese bars? It’s a phenomenon that can be found on just about every street corner. One of my favorites is New Wei Taai. It’s a convenient location on Palm Beach Rd.
– Because - On a Sunday only (Take out only) they have a BBQ of Chicken, Ribs and Fried Rice with a small bit of corn and some Coleslaw ($9) And it’s enough for 2 – If you don’t think so just order extra meat

Glenn's Place
106 Tanki LeendertA bit hard to find but a little hidden gem of a local bar and the food is good.
Outdoor seating with wood-burning BBQ food and the low-key crowd that gathers in the late afternoon. Sip a Balashi (our local brew), Venezuela’s Polar, Holland’s Heineken, or even a Budweiser. They are all “Frio, Frio” – that’s ice-cold to a local! Most staff speak only Spanish.
