It’s been 10 years since Cuba’s Cookin’ has opened its doors here in Aruba. And since that time I have returned to the “big island” a host of times to keep up with family & friends as well as seek out new paintings and photographs for the restaurant walls now containing over 250 pieces of art.
I feel it has become my mission to bring the hospitality, food, art, and music of Cuba to Aruba. The history of the compatibility of these two islands goes back to the turn of the century when many Arubans went to Cuba in search of backbreaking labor in the sugarcane fields. During that time many Arubans married (thereby gaining the name De Cuba) and returned to their homeland with Cuban wives and many continuing deep roots between the big and small islands.
In my 10 years as owner of Cuba’s Cookin’ I have had a great time meeting so many of you in our shared love of this rich culture.
In celebrating our 10th Anniversary please come and join us for lunch or dinner or just try out our best Mojitos or Cuba Libres at the bar. Also be sure to enjoy our live music & some truly thrilling moments that only
Cuba’s Cookin’s ambience has to offer.
