Kosher food Marriott Surf Club, Aruba
« on: December 21, 2015, 10:06:22 AM »
Does anyone know the deal about kosher food being sold at the Marriott Surf Club in Aruba during Yeshiva week? I was told that a group comes down every year, brings a checf, mashgiach, etc. for their group and also opens up the sale of food to the public. Any info would be appreciate. I will IYH be in Aruba Jan 24-31.

that's not really a kiddush hashem. somehow it's not "all" Jews, but sephardic jews that they write about. (Perhaps their 'warning' of whole month of Jan isn't needed -- just "yeshiva week".)
Since 2013, there is a Chabad in Aruba year-round -- they have some programs and a Kosher food service, so that may be helpful: http://www.jewisharuba.com/templates/articlecco_cdo/aid/2568885/jewish/Kosher-Food-Service.htm

Thanks - called Chabad before I posted. They aren't ready to go with their food service plan for this yeshiva break. They are the one who told me about the group at the Marriott Surf Club but they didn't have detailes or a contact name/number to confirm with becuase if this is the case i will have to shlep much less food which would be fantastic!
