would really like to take a day trip to this spot. A restaurant (and supposedly quite a good one) at the top of the mountain overlooking the cibao valley. some nice panoramas of the spot here:

Stop there every time I go that route, 3/4 times a month. Takes 35-40 minutes from the Cruz de Sabaneta, so about a hour from Sosua. There are 3 restaurants there (Cafeto and the other name escapes me right now) and the views are stunning. El Molina is my choice but they are all good. Get off that road before dark and it's all good.

Maybe you could take your camera.:confused::confused:

Yeah, it looks pretty spectacular, will have to make it out there one of these days.

Always, always have a camera on me. I'd definitely take the dslr along for that trip.

Have passed by it often, or at least used to when I used the Moca Route, I always tended to stop someplace in Moca instead, although I haven't used that route in a long time, maybe if I get the urge to use it again, I will try it.

I am definitely going to check this place out. The view looks spectacular. Just have to find a chica buena to bring along. I will try to post some pics and a review.

There are 3 restaurants. All are pretty much the same. Prices are around 300 to 500 pesos. Usually I get a bowl of soup or something else to snack on and a glass of wine. The trip from sosua/ cabarete takes 1.45 and I am in a hurry. You will probably have the whole restaurant to yourself.

Trip from sosua/cabarete to santiago. I can drive that road with my eyes closed. Surprised you get stuck behind some assholes. Never a lot of cars on that road. Was on that road yesterday.

That explains why it takes you 1.45 to get from Cabarete to La Cumbre.:rofl::rofl::rofl:

Eyes open, enjoying the view, drinking an ice cold Presidente.

One time I actually had a car full of girls pull me over. We stopped at the restaurant and had a drink.
One older lady and about 5 girls. She was working them in sosua and taking them back to Moca. One jumped in my car and lets say I had a interesting drive down the hill:)
