Great forum! Some friends and I, married couples, are visiting for a few days this month. Staying at an AI in PC. What local food or activity would you recommend? I love to see unique things like weekend produce markets, live music, local festivals, etc and I love to try new foods.

Quick Culture Lesson?
Your time is too short for a trip to SD,in my opinion.
The "AIs" make it difficult for you make "un-escorted" trips outside their property,but you can book day trips through their prefered tour agencys.These tend to be expensive,but that may not be an issue for you.
I suggest you stay in the AI,and eat,drink,and make merry!

Enjoy your time at the AI, maybe walk around a little bit, then come back next year and stay in Santo Domingo part of the time and at an AI part of the time.
The local food: rice, beans, fresh fruit. Drink rum or Presidente beer. It's what the rest of us live on.

which AI are you staying at? Four days is a short time... as others said too short to waste it traveling to S.D. (a 3.5 hour drive each way). depending on who you booked your vacation through and what tours they offer, you might want to spend one afternoon on a tour. but I wouldn't spend a whole day on one. If you're in one of the A.I.'s close to Cortecito, you could venture out on your own via conchos or taxi, or possibly even walk if you're close enough.
Thanks for the feedback. Rum and Presidente beer for sure. If it is as good as it sounds I'm sure it will be the first of many trips. Where are the best poker games (No Limit Holdem $1/$2 game)? The gals will probably follow Criss's advice to a T...the guys might want to venture out into town and look around some.
The "GIRLS" better tag along!
Otherwise,the "BOYS" may be "BOYS"!
Did you say where is the "Poker" game.or the "POKE HER" game???

You'll find lambi all over DR. They make it many different ways. Two of my favorite ways are guisado [stewed] and inside pastelitos. Cheo's Empanadas on the beach in Palenque are the best I've had, he uses yuca for the dough.
I often avoid it in the US because it's sometimes rubbery/chewy, but I've never been disappointed when a Dominican cooks it. If you see it on a menu, try it!
