CILO at the Seaport

CILO (or City Lounge) is an indoor/outdoor restaurant located at the Seaport Mall in Oranjestaad, Aruba. You’ll find casual dining and live music here. I like to pop in for lunch. As I posted here before, consider this to be an update to keep things current. Anyway, I started with the tomato soup as you can see below.

Dig those square plates, too. The soup was refreshing and fortifying after quite a bit of walking around town. However, more food was required. I opted for the CILO club and the other dish was a goat cheese salad. Check them out.

Talk about filling! These hit the spot. (Those fries were nice and crispy, I might ad.) Service here is very good and multi-lingual, which makes things easy for people from around the world. Refueled, I exited to the marina for a look at the boats and the fishermen. Some evenings there is live music and I’ll have to come back and check that out soon.

Bon dia from Aruba.

You’ll find a crowd of local business people here and a few island visitors salted in. Prices are fair for the quality and good service. Guests of the nearby Renaissance Hotel and Timeshare may want to put this on their list for a convenient snack or meal.

Bon dia.
