Despite being an island, the Dominican Republic isn’t exactly famous for it’s great quality seafood – with most Dominicans preferring to eat chicken or beef. Sadly this means that good quality, fresh seafood is not exactly easy to find and is why every once in a while a visit to Mare Nostrum in Bayahibe is […]

The Victory Club Bar Lounge: Now actually a restaurant
Its nothing new to say that Lucas restaurant is arguably one of Casa de Campo’s most popular restaurants, at least by the sheer volume of villa owners and residents who frequent it, so it is a nice surprise to see that Lisa Perrone, the wife of Sandro, the proprioter of Lucas, is now the head […]
Rumor Confirmed: Oneburger to open in Altos de Chavón!
It is with great excitement and appetite that we announce that Oneburger is indeed opening a restaurant in Altos de Chavón and it will be opening VERY soon – YIPPPPPPEEEEEE!!!
The Lago Grill: Breakfast fit for a king!
If you live in Casa de Campo you may overlook the all-you-can-eat breakfast buffet/feast served daily at the Lago Grill, but for a treat or even for Sunday brunch there is nothing that can rival it!
La Casita in La Romana: A Hidden Italian Haven!
Having lived in La Romana/Casa de Campo for more than 2 years, it is rather embarassing that I have tried relatively few restaurants, I have my favourites and I go to those often (Dom Ham, Chinois, Rico Bistro and the Beach Club by Le Cirque) and so to celebrate our 2 year anniversary, Philip chose […]

Papa Jacks in Altos de Chavón has a new menu ‘Papa Jack’s Caribbean Grill’ which among other things has 5 new gourmet burgers, 2 of which we decided to try for lunch last week and we must admit that we were very pleasantly surprised!
Dueños 2010: Party at La Romana Country Club, part 3
With so many glamourous and interesting people to photograph during the Dueños 2010 party at the La Romana Country Club, I have had to divide my coverage of the evening into 4 parts – this is part 3, in which I publish another 35 photos and reveal a little more about this great party!
Casa de Campo Living Reviews: The Big Break Dominican Republic – great TV!
Despite all the hype and even despite the fact that the Big Break was filmed in Casa de Campo, practically in my own back yard, I must admit I was not particularly excited about watching the premier last night, but I am very glad I did. I like to play golf (very occasionally and rather […]
Casa de Campo Living Reviews: Rico Bistro – the best food in Romana?
Does Rico Bistro have the BEST food in La Romana? Whilst we don’t want to start a restaurant war, the answer to the question is VERY POSSIBLY. Of course being only (VERY) amateur food critics it would be impossible for us to really compare, especially as we are regulars and big fans of a number […]
