Food here is GREAT . They have these little stores called colmado's , they are like a little mini mart , with prices to match. They are not the best deal in town . But they are right there for convenience. Then there is the Super Colmado - Prices a little better like a regular grocery store. Here is where a good blog will help you out. In the morning there is a little truck that comes around with eggs, bananas , platanos , pineapples , yucca , potatoes , onions . You know he is around because they blare the prices on this mega phone that you can hardly understand, but he's barking out the price so listen carefully . Anther note to add here , Dominicans are poor and will take advantage of you if you let them. There is also a bakery on every corner called a panderia , the bread prices are great.
At night they also have street vendors that have great food. Two or three dollars (66 or 99 pesos ) will get you plenty of food . The beer is pretty cheap like a quart very cold for two dollars or so. Again pay attention to what others pay, learn words like pollo , cerdo , carne de vaca , and speak up. I waited in line for 20 minutes one time and 15 people got feed who were in line after me.
Now for the restaurants . They are very good , loads of sea food where we are at the moment. The Italian pizza was very good , but you will pay for it. To pricey for my wife and I . We are trying to stay here for a long time . As we test restaurants we will post for travelers who go to Boca Chica . Photos will be added to this post later .
