Netherlands Antilles - Food

[[

][

]]

The food traditions differ between the islands of the Netherlands Antilles, but all of them are variations of Caribbean Creole cuisine. Typical traditional foods are funchi, a maize porridge, and pan bati, a pancake made of maize flour. Funchi and pan bati combined with carni stoba (a goat stew) form the basis of the traditional meal. Bolo pretu (black cake) is prepared only for special occasions. As fish is plentiful in the sea around the islands, it is often a part of the diet.
