Popeyes chicken
I am so excited that this cultural mecca is coming here. A gourmet bliss would be an adjacent KFC and a Burger King.
I've been eating it since I was old enough to chew so it
doesn't bother my stomach at all.
Considering the amount of picante sauce they put on their plantain/ham I dont think Dominican mind spice. Picante Chivo is a favorite for many people. I made a big bowl of chili con carne for a school outing. There were a lot of people saying it was too spicy but they ate the whole bowl.
I love the hot sauce.. ate the 10 wings suicide came with red siren on plate waiter wearing gloves to deliver at Crazy Ranch...you eat it it's free..I couldn't screamed like baby for firetruck next day.. watched same time as I failed a Russian mafioso being egged on by his Amigos , he made it to 5 wings beat him by one..seriously don't know what sauce they use but was painful ... waiter insisted I wear black latex ..he didn't for Russian just winked at me passing me...
Dont sleep in Taco Bell , and a Dunkin donuts would complete the food Court for the Fat bodies who cant miss a single meal
They had a store here many years ago on the corner facing Silver Sun Gallery where Wendy's is now.
As a matter of fact, they built that location.
The donuts at first were great. Excellent quality control. Then, they started leaving donuts that didn't sell from one day to the next, and it wasn't unusual to get a hard stale donut.
I don't know who was the franchise holder, but I'm guessing they still have it, much like the guy who had the Denny's franchise.
I would have loved to own a Denny's clone here, but it's just not financially viable.
This is my issue with Belgium bakery in Cab. The make excellent pastries but I was continually getting cold, hard ones. You can never mention it to them, however. Aside from that my favorite is the passing off of day to 2-day old bread as today's. Here at García and Rebecca I tell my moto guy never to ask the staff if the bread is from today. Either they have no idea because they've been eating smelly hard colmado bread their whole lives or they're told to lie. A fresh loaf say a baguette, should not be grainy inside. Also, soft outside doesn't translate to fresh (which also baffles Dominicans). In Galeras, there was a guy who made the pan de agua. It was only good if you got there at 5pm sharp when it came out of the oven. Everytime I didn't go myself I get reheated bread passed off as today's .
Dicks in Cab has the freshest. I've never not had a wonderful fresh roll from them. Simple, high quality fresh bread.
In Puerto Rico, there are small bakeries almost everywhere that churn out fresh bread every day. they make the 1 lb and 1/2 lb loaves and they usually sell out before 11am. Nothing like pulling hot bread out of the center and dipping it in coffee.
Too bad we don't have them here.
I don't think you'll see one anytime soon. All of the locations that sell donuts here are supplied by the main store on Churchill which probably is being underused.
Doesn't make sense to drive donuts all the way up to the North Coast every day.

They ran a Krispy Kreme food truck at the corner of Av. Juan Pablo Duarte y Av Salvador Estrella Sadhalá
in the Burger King (Santiago) parking lot during the summer of 2021. The lines were ridiculous.
Think testing the market and the donuts definitely passed. There is a massive new hotel complex/ shopping mall
opening across the street. I'm anticipating a new Krispy Kreme location inside this new development when it opens.
Time will tell.
Yep, I wouldn't be surprised either. And once the new highway is built they could probably get a truckload up north before they cool off.
But....... Who's going to buy a truck load of donuts every day.
I think they're missing the boat by not having a small stand with the tried and true varieties in supermarkets
