Where is the "local food" is Sosua? So far all I see is German food, Scandinavian food (whatever that may be) and overpriced tourist places. Where do the locals eat?

Do you mean local Dominicans or local expats? BTW, you obviously haven't read about or ignored the reasonably priced tourist places.

The push cart on the corner of Pedro Clisante and Dr. Rosen. Best pork sandwich in the DR.

I beg to differ, the guy across the street from Plaza Sosua/Domino's makes a better sandwich. He claims it's chicken, I think its puerco.

I may open a hot a Corned Beef/Pastrami cart for you soon!
' just have to get the ok to use The Stage Deli name.

How much money you think I will lose on that endeavour?

Go to Susannas for decent comida criolla, I think plato de dia is 100 pesos.
Try Charamicos.

For Pollo a la Carbon, on Pedro Clisante just before supermarket Zollo on the same side there is a large outdoor place. I had a half chicken with a large beer for 160RD. As good as any on the North Coast. I don’t know the price of the chicken as there is no menu. But for this price with a large beer, you are in heaven.

But if you are going to eat there bring your own knife and fork as you will only get a plastic fork which will not be much good. A lot of people take the food out.

This place has just opened recently.

Well so far I have seen little in the way of local food, mostly tourist places serving German or Italian food. I went to Las Chamaricas (?) twice today. There are plenty of cafeterias and every one of them was closed. I was there around 2 PM and again around 8. I ended up having some fried chicken and spaghetti that had probably been sitting there all day.

Where can you get rice and beans, or empanadas or even fresh pineapples?

It's right along the main road close to the supermarket. it's across from the bomba. They sell alot of the local food. Mangu, fried chicken, coleslaw salad, plantaine, rice with bean sauce. I notice alot of the locals go there to eat. They got some other food there that i don't know what it's called. The price is cheap too. You can eat like a champ for under $200 pesos.

Take a walk on the beach. All the Dominicans eat between 11 and 1. They get their food from little kitchens BEHIND the bars and restaurants. A lot of restaurants serve food that's prepared in these same kitchens. Buy a fresh caught fish and have them make some pago frito w/ ensalada& tostados. Any problem? The brittania pub. They have a " dominican lunch special " every day that's amazing. Don't linger. No matter how they try by 12:30 it's all gone. Any time you see a sign for san cocho stop.
I agree though, it's not easy to find traditional dominican food. Most of Sosua caters to the tourists not the Dominicans.
