We haven't been to Bonaire in a few years. This June's vacation will be our sixth time on the island, but we are wondering how the restaurant scene has changed.

Granted, I'm displaying my ignorance, but I've generally been good at that over the years. We've made many trips to Bonaire, and have never been to, nor indeed heard of, Bobbie Jans. Where is it, and what makes it so great?

Just a note, Bobbie Jans is on the main drag but the entrance is on the side street (it sits on a corner).

janet, the saturday morning only roast chicken place is the chicken lady. official name is la carnicerina latina but everybody calls her the chicken lady. i thought that was just the tourists name for her but one saturday we told our neighbor that we were going to get chicken from carnicerina latina and she asked where it was (she's lived on bonaire for at least 40 years). when we described it she said "oh yes, the chicken lady". we were told in march that she cooks 250 chickens every saturday and is open until they are gone...which is usually pretty quick.

Wow, that's cool info Pat! 250?! Chickens?! God bless her!

By Tom From Michigan (New BonaireTalk Poster - Post #6) on Tuesday, May 25, 2010 - 8:55 pm: |
Where can the "chicken lady" (la carnicerina latina)be found? As we will be driving around early Saturday morning after our Continental red eye touches down, we might as well stop and pick up the evening meal.
