Spotlight: El Canton
“At El Canton, we offer a fresh and Caribbean culinary experience with a touch of Caribbean/Venezuelan flavor. El Canton was created for the Bonaire community, better known as “Antriol’s corner,” and we offer a unique brunch experience. Our idea from the beginning was to integrate the community with our concept and offer them a different and enjoyable experience. We want to invite the people of Bonaire to El Canton to discover our concept and enjoy a calm and welcoming atmosphere.” – Chef/Owner, El Canton
