    What about the truck on that corner with carne salada and tostones. Mmmmmm pre-dlatins. First time I saw them cooking out of the bed of the truck right on p.c. it blew my mind.

    Re: 05/2015 - Chinese in Sosua

    I stopped into a Chinese restaurant in SD on Ave. Bolivar, just west of the parque where the Conde begins. I was the only customer at the time as it was around 4 pm, but the food was great, and a lot of it. It was kind of funny, hearing the Chinese couple that ran the place speaking very fast spanish to the waitress.

    Until I learned from reading this board, I had never known, nor even thought, that SD has a China Town.

    The whole world loves a tasty broccoli beef!

    Maybe a couple of us from the July Invasion ought to check out SD's "Pueblo Chino" one afternoon?

    From the looks of things the place might be a disappointment when it opens. They have set up one of those warming tray things for pre-cooked food like you see in the pica pollo / chinese places. That does not bode well but will have to wait and see.
    Enjoy it while you can.

    Maybe they are planning on doing big Volume at certain Hours of the day , and will make each pupular dish in large batches and just keep it hot in the chafing trays ?

    but you right, if people go there and we see food thats been SITTING there for HOURS in some tray .. nah, I aint eating that.
    If I see people buzy, and the sound of Woks being scraped and oil sizzling and stuff flying..then may give it a shot..

    Warming trays are never good. I like mine made to order.

    I think I heard that the family that owned "Restaurante China" on the malecon in Puerto Plata, was the same family that opened a Chinese restaurant in Cabarete. Does anyone know about this, and also where is the location of the Chinese restaurant in Cabarete? Thanks

    There's 2 chinese restaurants in cabarete about a block a part from eachother. Owned by the same family. One of them serves only chinese food and the other one serves both chinese and dominican food. They are in the center of cabarete on the right when you come from sosua.

    I have tried the place several times since they opened. I have to give it a resounding thumbs down!! The only thing worth getting is fried chicken with white rice. Three pieces of chicken with white rice is 170 pesos. A leg and thigh with fried rice is 200 pesos.

    The two Chinese dishes I have tried were forgettable and one of them was way too salty.

    Sorry to say, but this place is quite the disappointment! As usual Seville's report is 100% accurate! Even ordering an item that must be prepared fresh didn't save the day. But look on the bright side, my dogs ate it all up happily!! The Chinese in Cabarete is much better!!
