To watch games tonight and weekend.
I live there sporadically throughout the year. I haven’t been to a sports bar as I just stream on sportsurge.net. A lot of restaurants have their bars closed. There is also a corona curfew there, which tonight goes til 9 pm so you won’t see the whole game and they will ticket or arrest people for violating it... If it’s even on and I doubt they’re picking up ACCN but I could be wrong.To watch games tonight and weekend.
I’m back in the US right now but headed back there soon. I can see the monument lit up from the new apartment at night. I’m looking to buy a place there next year and live there more. That’s where my wife is from. Interest rates are very high there so that’s a killer.I envy you bro! Your in Santiago, DR? Nice. Is the curfew still in play in DR? Was there a few months ago and they shut everything down at 7pm and enforced it too.

Curfew on Saturday and Sunday is 7 pm. They are very strict about this and masks.
There’s a Friday’s there as was mentioned.
Not sure how long you’re there but I can give you some of the restaurants I like.
El Tablón Latino for dinner. I love the calamari appetizer. Everything there is good. Make sure to order a coco mojito. They use real coconut. The glass of house red wine is very good. Just say “una copa de vino tinto”.
Square One Cafe for breakfast. It’s like a diner so lunch and dinner are fine as well.
Scory Café- same owner as Square One. Great for breakfast (tres golpes) and good ceviche as an appetizer lunch or dinner. Both are housed in buildings at Total gas stations.
Muuu meat - cash only. outdoor grilled meat place for dinner. You walk up and order what you want by weight and they grill it for you. Steak, chicken, pork - you pick and choose from up 8 different meets and can order portions of each by weight.
La trattoria de Claudio has good pasta and brick oven type pizza.
212 pizza by El Tablón Latino is a good pizza joint for standard NY Pizza.
When ordering a Presidente, make sure to ask for it “Vestido de Novia” and it will come out frozen.
Not sure if it’s open but the Museo Leon is a nice museum.
Any other questions, I’ll try to answer.
I do the Dominican version of Mofongo - mangu. I love it as part of the tres golpes breakfast and I have them add avocado to that. There is mofongo on many menu’s there, usually as an appetizer, and they call them mofongitos.You deserve a plate of mofongo con chicharones for this papo

I just gave that suggestion to someone who DM’d me about going there. Lol I told them to stay walking distance from everything in a hotel, or even better, an apartment.Take the drive to Sosua. It's well worth, especially if this is a boy's only trip. You can thank me later! LOL!!!
Lol. I love travel research and planning and then experiencing other cultures. Anything I can answer, I’m happy to.Thanks for planning my DR trip for me
Hahah trust me I know what mangu is with some salamiI do the Dominican version of Mofongo - mangu. I love it as part of the tres golpes breakfast and I have them add avocado to that. There is mofongo on many menu’s there, usually as an appetizer, and they call them mofongitos.
Here fresh grouper I had for less than $5 at Square one. I could of had two sides of mashed potatoes, mangu, vegetables, fries, and other stuff but I just had salad:

For breakfast, Los tres golpes has mangu (boiled mashed green plantains), fried salami, fried cheese, eggs and I add the avocado. Here’s an order I had at Scory Cafe in October there for less than $4.

I was in Santiago a short time. My wife is from the capital so we are in DR at least 3-4 times a year. The curfew sucks. Smh. I’ll be there for Christmas and NYE so hoping it’s lifted by then. I’ll definitely check those places out thiugh! Good lookin out!I’m back in the US right now but headed back there soon. I can see the monument lit up from the new apartment at night.

The curfew is 7 pm on Saturday and Sunday and I think 9 pm all other nights and yeah they don’t play. Did you eat in any of the places I listed or did you head to Sosua/Cabarete?
