Would you like to see a D.D. on Bonaire?

I already did. On my last trip, we found the D.D. on the main road in town.

But if you are planning a funny, then I will bite. "Why yes Jerry, would like to see a DD."

Someone beat me to it!

Tambu on Kaya Grande brings in donuts daily from Aruba....

I hear they are wonderful

NEVER EVER...keep it simple is why I moved here...

i remember our first trip to bonaire. we stayed at carib inn. we were in room three. about the second or third day about 5 of us were sitting around the pool and somebody walked out of room four holding a DD bag. she was almost mugged...everybody rushed to her asking where the donuts were. she didn't understand till she saw us drooling over her bag...then she explained that she had just brought the bag from boston and had her bathing suit in it.

but i agree with ann...we don't need a DD on bonaire.

Uh...I'm confused because there is one on Bonaire. I just saw it less than a month ago. Has it closed? Is it a knock-off? It was on the main road in town. I'm really confused!!!

I was with Tribs and we looked at each other and sort of thought... OK. But maybe it was just a sign in the door??? It was a few places north of Jewel of Bonaire. Is it or isn't it a DD?

As I am a DD freak yes they have it at Tambu.(next to one stop shop) But they don't make them themselves, they get them every morning from Aruba and I have to say they are fresh!

Jeanine, I apologize..you were not tripping..I swear I never knew this..thank goodness I am not a DD fanatic.

If they can get the donuts, could bagels be far behind? I am also not a DD coffee fan. There are many other brands out there that are so much better. Even coffee at City Cafe beats DD. But they sure do an excellent job marketing their products. And are always on top of new items and trends. Their new headquarters in Canton, Ma, is right next to Reebok.

Ann, I thought I was the only New Englander who is not a DD fanatic! Thank you for sharing!! My daughter and I have to make two coffee stops whenever we are out together! And I have not eaten a donut since I worked in a donut shop when I was 19!

I like DD in the states but when I travel I like to go to local restaurants and eat the local food, it's part of the attraction of traveling. Hence I'd rather eat locally prepared chicken with local spices rather than KFC, and no McDonald's please. Had a wonderful local dish at a restaurant in the middle of Rincon last year. Give me the local and native dishes, it's what makes these lovely places unique. Feel the same way about the local beer and the rum. No Budweiser please.

try the johnny cakes and pastchies or sausage brot for breakfast.

Hi Michael! Where can you get the Johnny cakes? I love them.

Darlene, Johnny Cakes are evil..stay away...Jokes has em, La Portugesa...I avoid them at ALL costs..

Thanks Ann. I have gotten them at Jokes but then there have been times that they are not there. Is there a certain time of day that you have to get them by??

Guys, please remember to consider that not only visitors/tourists eat out, desire donuts, etc. Residents and locals do too, and maybe they don't want to pay to eat out what they eat at home.

aw crap. Casablanca's, Lion's Den, Lover's Ice Cream, and now Dunken Donuts, There goes that diet. Maybe if I starve myself from now until January I can survive one week on the island.
