WILLEMSTAD - On November 28, the Curaçao Culinary team held its first ever drive-thru BBQ fundraising event in the parking lot of CHATA Member, Sambil. Many came out to support the extraordinary team who will represent the island at the Taste of the Caribbean competitions in Miami.

The Curaçao Culinary Team (CCT) were eagerly preparing the to-go boxes during their fundraising event last Saturday as they welcomed all those who came to support. Although it was a little different from the previous fundraising events organized by the CCT, they still managed to provide the visitors with a delicious BBQ. The visitors also got a glance of the young chefs in action and witnessed some of their culinary skills as they drove by to pick up their food. Besides preparing the food, the team also kept to the social distancing rules, had hand sanitizer available and wore their masks at all times.

CHATA and the Curaçao Culinary Team would like to extend their gratitude to all who came to support the event, especially our sponsors. All the sponsors provided complimentary food items and material to the team. Our sponsors are: Sambil, Coca-Cola, Deli Nova, Dynaf, Esperamos Supermarket, Fayad’s Fruit and Vegetables, Firgos, Panaderia Isa, C3, Trusz by Rich, PBS and Ennia.

CHATA looks forward to having the Curaçao Culinary Team represent Curaçao at the next Taste of the Caribbean competition. Make sure to support and follow the team on Instagram and Facebook, where they will be showcasing their skills and talent.
