Our story

Toko Williwood, since 2008

Marfa’s GoodHangout is the place to hang out in Williwood (St. Willibrordus), on the west side of Curaçao. Locals and visitors come here for good food, cold drinks and a warm welcome.

Where is Williwood?

On your way to the church of St. Willibrordus you can’t miss the huge white letters on the hill near the salt pans of Jan Kok: ‘WILLIWOOD’. What started as a prank by a boy from the village, who painted a road sign with graffiti letters, has grown into a real phenomenon. The WILLIWOOD sign stands for more than artistic expression or a parody of the famous Hollywood sign: it stands for pride and togetherness.

Opposite those big white letters you will find Toko Williwood: Marfa’s GoodHangout.

On 21 October 2016 Marfa Wawoe developed the Williburger right here: a burger of local goat meat on a bun from a local bakery, baked with the same spices as the patty. After a short but very successful pilot it became a fixture on the menu, served with sweet potato fries and our homemade Willinaise. The marketing started with a billboard at Hato airport and has since spread across the whole island.

The Williburger Deluxe

We are very proud to have introduced a truly local product that benefits the whole economy of Curaçao. The Williburger won’t only be available at Toko Williwood: with its own recipe it will be served by several restaurants on the island. It is a natural product, so sustainable and good for the environment. Part of the proceeds will support and inspire talented young people to start a local, innovative business.

The meat is ground and made into patties by a local distributor, so the recipe is the same at every location. The bun is baked by a local bakery with the same spices as the burger, and even the toothpick comes from a local business. Meet them all in the Williburger Club.

From Curaçao to the world

Our menu is a celebration of flavor without borders: local favourites like goat stew and pastechi, fresh fish and lobster, and international dishes with island flair.
