A Taste of Caribbean Tradition

The Caribbean is known for its rich and flavorful cuisine, influenced by African, Spanish, Indigenous, and Asian culinary traditions. From fresh seafood dishes to coconut-infused stews and perfectly grilled meats, every bite tells a story of culture and history. At Club Kabanna, we invite you to explore some of the most iconic dishes of the region, alongside our own signature creations.

Ceviche de Pescado

A staple of coastal Caribbean cuisine, Ceviche de Pescado is a refreshing and zesty dish made with fresh fish marinated in citrusy leche de tigre, mixed with avocado, onions, and crispy corn. It’s the perfect dish to enjoy by the sea with a tropical cocktail.

Cazuela de Mariscos

A true comfort dish, our Cazuela de Mariscos is a creamy seafood stew made with coconut milk and a blend of spices that enhance the natural flavors of shrimp, calamari, and other delicacies from the ocean. Served with coconut rice and patacones.

Pulpo a la Gallega

While originally from Spain, Pulpo a la Gallega has become a favorite in many Caribbean coastal towns. At Club Kabanna, we serve it with tender octopus, buttery garlic-infused potatoes, and a hint of smoky paprika, bringing a touch of Mediterranean influence to our Caribbean menu.

Chicharrón al Estilo Asiático

A unique fusion dish, our Chicharrón al Estilo Asiático takes crispy pork belly and elevates it with bold Asian flavors, while still honoring the Caribbean love for crispy, flavorful bites.

Signature Nikkei Dishes

Our menu is a celebration of two diverse culinary traditions that come together in perfect harmony. While the Caribbean-inspired dishes showcase the bold flavors of the region, our Nikkei dishes offer a fresh and creative take on Japanese cuisine.

Tiradito de Atún

One of our most popular starters, the Tiradito de Atún features raw tuna slices drizzled with sesame oil and topped with red onions and sesame seeds. A simple yet flavorful dish, it’s the perfect appetizer to kick off your culinary journey.

Crab Salad

Our Crab Salad is a refreshing combination of sweet crab meat, creamy avocado, and crispy tempura, all bathed in a mild Japanese mayonnaise and topped with masago. It’s a light yet satisfying dish that captures the essence of our Nikkei cuisine.

Sushi Rolls

For sushi lovers, our sushi rolls are a must-try. The Long Roll is a favorite, filled with kanikama, avocado, and cream cheese, then topped with fresh salmon, masago, and a drizzle of spicy mayo. We also recommend the Candela Roll, which features tempura shrimp, kani salad, and crispy tempura flakes, providing a satisfying crunch with every bite.

  • Arroz con Coco y Pescado Frito: A classic Colombian-Caribbean dish where coconut rice is paired with crispy fried fish and patacones.
