Visitors enjoyed a delicious BBQ and had the opportunity to see our young chefs in action. Many were impressed by the great culinary skills of the team and the great team work that they exemplified. According to one visitor, “It gives me great joy to see how hard these youngsters work to be able to represent Curaçao abroad”.
