Curaçao’s local cuisine is a flavorful reflection of its history, people, and island spirit, a blend born from creativity, resilience, and tradition. During the time of slavery, cooks transformed limited ingredients into hearty, delicious meals that have now become treasured national dishes.

Today, Curaçaoan food is a rich mix of African, Caribbean, and colonial influences, prepared with love and bold island flavor. Meals are often slow-cooked, deeply seasoned, and served with local staples such as rice, plantains, or funchi (cornmeal).

Some of Curaçao’s most beloved traditional dishes include:

• Stoba – A hearty stew, often made with goat, beef, or iguana, simmered until tender with herbs and vegetables.

• Kabritu Stoba – A flavorful goat stew, one of the island’s true specialties.

• Funchi – A cornmeal side dish, similar to polenta, often served with stews or fish.

• Tutu – A sweet-and-savory mix of black beans, cornmeal, and coconut milk.

• Stoba di Papaya – Papaya stew, a sweet-and-savory favorite.

• Stoba di Repolyo – Cabbage stew, rich and hearty.

• Stoba di Banana – Banana stew, blending fruit and spice in a comforting dish.

• Stoba di Bonchi Korá – Long green bean stew, flavorful and traditional.

• Sopi di Yama – Cactus soup, a unique and refreshing island specialty.

• Sopi di Yambo – Okra soup, thick and full of earthy island flavor.

Local meals are best enjoyed with an ice-cold drink, a sea breeze, and good company, because on Curaçao, food is not just nourishment, it’s a celebration of life and history.

For our tours, we use open-air buses, allowing you to fully enjoy the island breeze and scenic views.

Air-conditioned buses are available upon request for groups of 25 or more participants.
