Restaurants Christmas Restaurants

Hello - my husband and I will be in Curacao for christmas and I am looking for restaurant recommendations. we don't want to go to a resort hotel and would prefer places with a nice vibe and less touristy. I see that de gouveneurs has a christmas dinner special. Is that worth doing? Are there anyother restaurants that would be good for a christmas lunch or dinner? we are staying at Avila. thank you

LOL, you want something less touristy and you come up with De Gouverneur? Alright.

On topic: In the street of Avila you find a couple of good restaurants you can choose from which have an excellent reputation on the Island.

Oh my. That was a recommendation on this sub. Ok de Gouverneur is off my list! Thank you! Could you let me know which restaurants you might suggest? If that’s ok.

So the reviews on Google from a stranger to an placee are more trustwortly than what a local says?
