As the year comes to an end, it feels fitting to showcase Jaanchie's, Curaçao’s oldest restaurant.
Immediately inviting and oozing culture, Jaanchie’s is a must for anyone truly interested in connecting with the flavors of Curaçao.
Located in Westpunt, what many call the most scenic part of the island, this >60 year old institution has seen 3 generations carry on its tradition of authenticity. The warmth and charm of the old farmhouse is matched only by the dancing birds, jumping from one sugar plate to the next.
Don’t leave without sampling the stewed chicken or goat. If you’re truly looking for the island experience, direct your attention to the stewed iguana. A little gamey but it has a familiar amount of fat and texture as chicken.
You only live once!
