I'm a high school teacher bringing 20 wonderful, but noisey, high school students to Bonaire to study marine biology in June. In the past we only dined at the hotel where we stayed but I'm looking to branch out and give the kids a more "authentic" experience. I spend about $18 per person including gratuity, and we obviously don't drink anything except water to ice tea.

Ryan, bless you! I wonder if Antriol Catering could handle a group that size if you called ahead...the eating area certainly could accomodate such a large group.

I think as long as you call in advance Antriol Catering would be a GREAT choice. We did a BT talk there a few years ago (before Gibi opened his doors) and it was wonderful. They really aim to please, and it's pretty darned authentic.

If you e mail me I would be glad to help with the arrangements. I am the editor of the Bonaire Dining Guide and have some pretty good connections. I agree with Antriol Catering suggestion and also Maikey Snak...other places that fall into your budget are Bistro di Paris, Casablanca, Patagonia, Chibi Chibi, etc. Let me know if I can help..info@chatnbrowse.com

Ryan wow!! You are bringing 20 students to Bonaire for a field trip? Dude, I am putting you in for NEA's Teacher of the Year!! That is so wonderful. Do these kids even have a clue as to how cool Mr. Carlson is for doing this?

Ryan, post thought, City Cafe would be good as well. However, listen to Uncle Michael. He is the man. He is a wealth on knowledge on all things Bonaire, especially good things like eating. LOL

Ryan, I agree with Chet, I forgot about Gibi's. Last time I went it was $20.00 per person though, anyone have any idea what the going price of a dinner is? He serves the food in his home, so that certainly would be "local" for the kids to experience!

Local food, consistently good and within your price range = Antriol Catering!

By Bas (Experienced BonaireTalker - Post #385) on Monday, February 5, 2007 - 8:43 am: |
Going price for a dish of local food is between Naf 11,50 to 15,00. ($6,60 to $8,60)

See Franco at the Ribs Factory. You would probably all fit. I have been there when large dive groups roll in.
