(Oranjestad)鈥擜fter a night out it鈥檚 custom to grab yourself a late-night snack on the road. Here in Aruba, there are dozens of food trucks that you can visit to enjoy a late-night bite. Here are a few that can be found in the down town/hotel area.聽
Chalo burger
Chalo burger is a favorite among locals, and it鈥檚 due to its popularity that it has branched out to different parts on the island. One of its main locations is in Palm Beach, near the hotel area. Chalo offers a variety of fast-food meals, like hamburgers, hotdogs, loaded fries and more! A popular dish among locals is the Salchipapa: loaded fries with sausages, cheese and a mix of sweet and savory sauce. Perfect for those late-night cravings!
Chalo is open Wednesdays through Mondays from 7pm to 12 am (Fridays till 1am), and is located at Palm Beach 178 (a little past the roundabout near the Piazza Gianni鈥檚). Other Locations include Tanki Leendert and Savaneta.
Julio’s Corner
Situated in a nice little corner off the highway, Julio鈥檚 Corner has a huge menu comprised of different dishes and snacks, all made with a Venezuelan twist! From arepa鈥檚 to chicken wings, to pizzas and burgers, Julio鈥檚 Corner has it all to satisfy your taste! Editor鈥檚 choice for what to get at Julio鈥檚 Corner is the quesadilla, which comes with a side of fries.
Julio鈥檚 Corner is open Mondays through Saturday from 6pm to 2am (Fridays and Saturdays up to 4am), and is located in the parking lot of the Eagle Bowling Palace, right on the other side of the road from the Sasaki gas station.
Habibi Express
Habibi Express is a Lebanese food truck stand, one of very few food trucks on the island to sell Mediterranean food. Located right at the entrance of The Local Market near the cruise ship port, here you can fill your stomach (and heart) with a variety of options like shawarmas, doners, kapsalons and more, all 100% halal. When asked, the chef there recommends all foodies to try their lamb shawarma, as it鈥檚 a favorite among guests.
Habibi Express is open every day from 5pm to 12am. While you鈥檙e there, how about a picture with the genie?
