Restaurants in Culebra

I am trying to contact the "owner" of this website to yet again remind him/her that the list of restaurants on this website are very out of date.
I would like to provide an updated list of restaurants but don't know where to send it.
Please contact me asap - it is a disservice to visitors that arrive on this island to have this (and I imagine other areas of this website) so out of date.

Spot, welcome to the Forum!

It would be great if you posted an up to date list here or sent it to me directly.

I do not know what you mean with 'yet again' since this is indeed your first post and it seems you could not be bothered to look for my email address.

Here it is for easy access: michael@islaculebra.com

Enjoy Culebra!

Michael

For many years I am a regular visitor of this website and found it from day one very helpful ,am sure other visitors are going to agree with me when i say that, at no time has there been a disservice by this humble website that must of us used when we come to Culebra(love the forum).
I just want to say that I hate injustice and find your sarcastic demands unjust,
further more as a business rep.you should be a little more politically correct.
I am sure the kitchen in your restaurant has not been perfect,so be humble,it goes a long way

I remember Alicia asking you about this before. See http://www.islaculebra.com/forvm/read.php?f=1&i=9943&t=9943 Actually, reading your response to her, I'm really surprised that you put the burden on her to identify which restaurants were "new" and should be on the list. As the owner of this website, isn't that your responsibility?

The Spot is Fede and Alicia's restaurant. Again, surprised that you didn't put that together.

My 2 cents -

Juanita Bananas is no longer located at Harbor View.
El Caobo is not on the list.
Café Delizioso at the airport is not on the list.
El Eden - that's been there at least 3 years. Not on the list.
Pandeli - at least 3-4 years; not on the list.
Whatever iteration of the restaurant at Costa Bonita now - not on the list.
Ocean View - not so sure they are still in business.

Groceries -

Raffi's has been closed for years.
Marco's - closed for years
Costa Del Sol - not on the list
Colmado Mixto - where is that?

You get the point. It would be great if the info was up to date, so that our visitors can enjoy the best there is to offer.

Thanks for looking into this,
Debbie

Where do I start?
My reply to Michael - This is indeed NOT the first time that I write to you about this - I wrote to you many years ago and I attached a list of restaurants in Culebra then. I did the same this time (as some have changed) and sent it your e-mail address. Did you check your e-mails?
It does not sound as though you much care - I thought you might want to know, seeing as you are never here.
My reply to "AD" - WOW - you use some very strong words - why are so on the defense? What was "politically incorrect" about my comment and what does my kitchen and being humble have to do with it? As you can see from the other comment posted, I am not the only one that agrees that the site is out of date (thanks Debbie). I thought it would be helpful to Michael as he is not here and should want to know.
Anyway, I hope it gets updated - that is all that really matters.

Here is a link to the list that Alicia provided:

Restaurants in Culebra

Thanks again and I will link to it as well from the restaurant page. I do depend on input from restaurant owners, but most are not interested and some even have gone as far as insulting and threatening me for even listing their phone number - why would I go out of my way to show their new locations or changed phone numbers?

Raffi's was very dear to me and I reserve the right to have any kind of info including outdated one here - especially when most people ask here in the forum anyway :) (without checking info in the pages)

Enjoy Culebra!

Michael

you know,
its not like you or I are paying to use this site.
we dont have the right to make any demapnds or be incredulous.
ANYTHING we get from here is a bonus and we should all appreciate the opportunity to view it free with no expectations.
no one OWES you an updated list of anything.
if you dont like it, dont come back.
I appreciate this and the Vieques site that Michael runs.
Neither is perfect but they both give us all an opportunity to communicate.

I believe that it is the"responsibility" of each individual business owner to contact the website and ask if they could please add their business into the advertisement section of the site.It is not his responsibility to do the leg work.Correct me if am wrong its free right,so you politely ask don't demand with words like "yet again and asap".you want a better website you make a better website

Good morning,
It's not entirely free for businesses to advertise...

Free or not, I think the information should be correct and I thanked Michael for posting the updated list. Let's put this argument to rest.

Hello all,

My wife and I will be traveling to Culebra in the morning for the first time. I would like to simply say thank you to the founder of the site and to all of the contributing members for the updates. I am looking forward to smoking a Puerto Rican Robusto cigar that I purchased at the SOFO festival in Old San Juan and all this bickering is blowing my high already. Thank you All again for your contributions and I look forward to a few days off of the beaten path before heading back to the states.

And what about those cats at you know that restuarant? They keep looking at me funny and wiggling their tail real fast and jittery. LOL
