Default Dining Itinerary- what do you think?

ok- got the activities figured out now we've moved on to the all important where to eat! We'll probably grab Dunkin Donuts or bagels for breakfast, lunches at a beach bar (tortuga at ABC, Matthews at CDM, Pega Pega at Manchebo beach Resort etc.-any others I'm missing within walking distance?) We prefer pretty straight forward food- nothing exotic and we're not seafood eaters which makes it a little tough! We're staying at Divi Dutch Village so we'll walk to some dinners and venture to Palm Beach and downtown for others.

Here's what I'm thinking...opinions welcome!

Saturday (arrival day)- Pizza Bob's
Sunday- Passions
Monday- Rumba (not 100% yet...ideas in the downtown area?)
Tuesday- Salt and Pepper, Pelican's Nest or Blossoms (thought Chinese might mix it up a little?)
Wednesday- French Steakhouse

Sadly we head home on Thursday afternoon. I have been to Alfredo's during past trips and had good meals at a good price- could mix that in as well.

Let me know if you have thoughts/ideas. Thanks! Kelley

Let me know if you have thoughts/ideas. Thanks! Kelley

The Yemanja menu has my mouth watering and the Salt and Pepper menu looks great too. Thank you EBB!!

How about Smokey Joe's? They have wonderful food, reasonable prices and generous portions.

Good suggestion- could definitely be a possibility and we have a fridge at our place for leftovers!

French Steak House has been getting bad reviews lately.

Yemanja website:

http://www.yemanja-aruba.com/ Yemanja Woodfired Grill

BTW, I really like Ventanas Del Mar
