Brace yourselves, food aficionados and culinary enthusiasts! The highly anticipated Bonaire Culinair Spring Edition is set to tantalize your taste buds, commencing on May 23rd and continuing through June 6, 2024. This remarkable 15-day culinary journey invites you to indulge in the finest offerings from Bonaire’s top-notch restaurants and other epicurean havens. Each of these esteemed culinary hotspots has crafted a delectable menu or exclusive special in celebration of this exceptional event.
Bigger than ever before
This edition boasts the largest lineup of restaurants yet, making it our most tempting event to date. With a record number of participants, this spring gathering features an array of mouth-watering businesses eager to showcase their gastronomic delights.
What makes this edition even more special? We’re thrilled to welcome several new culinary hotspots to our lineup, adding even more excitement and flavors to the mix. From cozy dinner spots to charming lunch joints and even unique sail tours, a bakery, and a distillery, there’s something for every palate to explore.
A truly unique experience
With an array of culinary delights on the menu, the only question is, how many will you explore? One such gem among these culinary hotspots is Restaurant Wanapa. “We ensure that our guests won’t miss a thing by receiving excellent service. The attention paid to our guests is very high. Normally, we offer a 4 or 5-course surprise menu on the porch of our land house, where you can enjoy a beautiful sunset; this is a truly unique experience. For Bonaire Culinair only, we also offer a 3-course menu. All our surprise menus are attentively and carefully put together by the chefs. In addition, you can also opt for wine pairing with your dinner. This has been carefully selected by our own sommelier. The restaurant is small and seats about 24 guests.”
A New Discovery
A new adding to the line-up of participants is your newest deli in town, Ons Broodje! Just opened in February, they offer classic (Dutch) sandwiches with freshly cut cheeses and meats, soups, breakfast, and barista coffees. Owners Michiel van Heusden and Floyd van Hees: “We are excited to join Bonaire Culinair with ‘Ons Broodje’ for the first time and make everyone excited to come and try our new deli!” During Bonaire Culinair, Ons Broodje offers a classic combination of menu items, known as ‘Het 12-Uurtje’. This translates to a 12 o’clock lunch special in English.
