The Kura Hulanda Resorts in Curacao have reopened the restaurants in their Otrabanda village square, highlighted by the return of its Jaipur Indian restaurant.

All of the Otrabanda’s restaurants had been closed in 2011 after the resort came under new management.

Now, Jaipur, helmed by Chef Ekanath, has returned, bringing traditional Indian fare to the island. The reopening ceremony was marked with a traditional Indian festival last week.

Kura Hulanda Resorts consists of two properties: the Hotel Kura Hulanda and the Kura Hulanda Lodge & Beach Club.
