One Happy Podcast

Here is the latest episode of This Week in Aruba, which covers the events from Monday, April 16th to Sunday, April 22nd!

 

My shoutout for this week goes to Scott and Leslie Steeno, the founders of the famed Scott’s Brats and owners of Legends Pubs which is a great sports bar in Palm. They are Wisconsinites who fell in love with Aruba and relocated there. You can listen to their One Happy Podcast episode on: http://onehappypodcast.com/ep61/. Fun fact: to date, this episode owns the record for day 1 downloads of any podcast done by OHP.

 

Now without further ado, here are the upcoming events in Aruba:

Italian cuisine is not world-renowned for nothing: it turns quite simple, yet stunningly tasty dishes made with fresh herbs and vegetables into feasts for kings and queens. Fresh, top notch ingredients are key – your taste buds get to experience the finale. Four times Italy is the name of the next installment of Hadicurari Restaurant’s Culinary Secrets. The chef has come up with a lovely menu, which will surely appeal to you. Please don’t forget to make your reservations in advance!

 

The appetizer of the special Secrets menu is homemade ravioli with chicken, eggplant, Parmesan cheese and gremolata, a mix of wonderful herbs and garlic. Porcini soup with grilled scallops and green asparagus is next, followed by veal cheeks in their own gravy, spinach, mushrooms and truffles and a Chef's surprise for dessert.

 

Just a tip of the curtain of Italian cuisine gets showcased at Hadicurari during April’s Hadicurari Secrets dinner, but it will surely give you a chance to close your eyes and imagine yourself in Toscane, in the south or in Piedmont. Travel through your taste buds to Italy and enjoy!
