Brilliant Banqueting

ORANJESTAD — Renaissance Aruba Resort & Ca-
sino pride themselves in a renewed, fresh, trendy
banqueting menu that was presented to their cor-
porate clients last Friday. Director of Event Manage-
ment Edrien Arends: “Unique is the building-bricks-
concept where you start with a base and add-on
as desired. Whether you choose healthy options or
local delights, it is all possible. The presentation is
dynamic with more visible food stations. Check it
out, it’s perfect for your company event.”

The polished banqueting menu will tickle your taste
buds with coffee break enhancements like Power
Boost (green teas infused with green apple, cucum-
ber, celery and ginger – dips like hummus, baba
ghanoush, veggies and local chips and chicken
summer rolls) or Chips & Dips with the emphasis on
Mexican delights. “Purpose is to offer variety and
flexibility while at the same time meet the demand
of the market of healthier options”, says Edrien.

Love the Lunch
Aruban, Arabic, Cuban, Caribbean, Italian, Greek,
Japanese, Mexican …. You name it and the theme
is there. The lunch (buffet) options of Renaissance
Aruba Resort & Casino are a world on its own. This
applies to the dinner options too, it is a hard choice
to make in this pool of possibilities. For the cocktail
& reception section the resort offers several themes
like for example Antipasti, Sushi, Seafood and
Sweet Temptation. There are Cold Hors d’Oeuvres
like Lump Crab and Mango Salad on Local Cucum-
ber/Avocado Mousse or Seared Scallops and Jap-
anese Noodle Salad and what to think of the Hot
Hors d’Oeuvres like baby Lamb with Garlic Confit
or Goat Cheese Beignet Apple with Shallot Marma-
lade. The displays and stations are presented in a
modern, trendy look which combined with the in-
spiring, culinary surprises will make your event rock
for sure. Best thing: you really get value for your pay
as prices are more than right.
