My favourite was casablanca - great service, good food (limited choice but good) and the prices were fabulous.

It was interesting to watch the gathering of the locals on the beach! Dominicans know how to have a good time!!!!

Excuse me while I go back to eating my chocolate now..... thanks Miguel......
Thanks darling!.

Well, El Sueno was NOT my cup of tea.....Waaaaaaay too pricey for the food and service provided.

I still can NOT understand why they were so slow to take care of customers when at times there were about 5-7 waiters/waitresses just talking among themselves.....But anyways.....The first day food was eatable and the second time I guess I was too hungry NOT to eat it!.

Hands down, the best service was from Ramon and the girls from Casablanca's.

NOOOOOOO, thank YOU!!.

Thanks again.

Definitely nicer than Boca Chica......I also feel the people are friendlier....But that's just me.

Btw: Thanks for the PM and no offense taken.

Let me warn you, though, be very careful in liking me. I hold no punches and there's a big chance you will NOT like what I say or how I say things in a few months.

I only you knew how MAAAAAAANY PM's I have of people who "loved" me at the beginning and now "hate" my guts.......And ALLLLLL because I say what I feel and I feel what I say, have no hair on my tongue and can NOT care less if people do NOT like me.

That said, yes, I was born in the DR and relocated to NY back in 1974, when I was "64" years of age.

Dominicano hasta la tambora?.....No....But I do like chuletas ahumadas....wahaha!.

But know that I am a little pussycat!!.......If only in my dreams.....Wahahaha!.

Now, let me go post more pictures....(shyt!).

Thanks.

I don't know why you can't see "the others" pictures.

But I do have a solution for you:

Open your window, grab your computer and throw it out of it!. Wahaha.

Will post some more later. Perhaps you will see them all.
