Beach Bites: A Foodie’s Dream Vacation in Aruba

If you’ve been dreaming of a tropical vacation all through this blustery winter (and snowy spring), there’s no better place than Aruba. The sandy, secluded beaches of the Dutch Caribbean island, the pristine blue waters… you can practically hear the warm breeze blowing through the divi-divi trees calling your name.

But don’t forget the amazing food. On June 9, local celebrity Chef Tiffani Faison, the mastermind behind famed Fenway spots Tiger Mama and Sweet Cheeks Q, will lead an interactive cooking demonstration at Fusion Restaurant Wine & Piano Bar. Faison will serve up a mouthwatering multi-course meal, offering a step-by-step guide and inviting one lucky guest per course to act as her sous-chef de cuisine. Specializing in steakhouse staples and tapas, Fusion is a wine and piano bar that’s perfect for this appetizing event.

In addition, enjoy musical medleys from Pasta e Basta singers during the dinner demo in between courses. The Amsterdam restaurant hosts singing waiters and waitresses, serenading diners with a variety of pop, jazz, and more.

Guests of the Divi Aruba All Inclusive resort can take part in the delicious demo with a special package price starting at $170 per person, per night. Your all-inclusive stay covers all meals, beverages, and amenities. Reserve your room between April 10 and May 31 using code BEACHBITES for travel from June 2-16, 2018.

Can’t make it to Fusion for Faison’s food? No worries. Indulge in all-day meals and snacks at Divi Aruba’s 10 all-inclusive dining options, like island-inspired Pelican Terrace or Pure Lime’s authentic Mexican cuisine, plus enjoy unlimited beverages at eight all-inclusive bars and lounges with creative cocktails you can sip by the beach.

In addition, Divi Aruba guests have access to four freshwater pools, lit tennis courts for night play, the Divi Winds Sports Center featuring a 30-foot rock climbing wall, snorkeling, windsurfing, and bikes for the whole family. Only steps from the sand and sea, guest accommodations include a patio or balcony.

When the sun goes down, the fun doesn’t stop. Dance beneath the stars or sway to live Caribbean music and entertainment. Take part in themed nights with Carnival and circus shows, salsa lessons, and water ballet, or let loose with limbo and karaoke.

Don’t wait to plan your escape to paradise. Thaw out on a tropical island and get your fill of fantastic food with a trip to Divi Aruba.
