A lot of balls, that is why you are “ball” headed ⚾️🥃 salud!
You ate lots of balls in this video because you dreamed of your basketball years in the USA.😅
Jamie how many black shirts you own lol. Love the restaurants. I thought I been to most of them.
I've walked by that Detroit pizza possibly 20 times but i haven't eaten there because I don't see Detroit as a place known for pizza. I also fell in love with Anthony's pizza off of Abraham Lincoln because the food is good, and it's a great spot to people watch. If you haven't already, try Lou Malnati's if you're ever in Chicago again. Great video.
Jamie just learned how alta-gamma = top notch is the new B Punta Cana Airport…it is huge looks like hotel, a mall and an airport…looks good for like, to go there and have a nice walk…very very pleasent
great video
Jamie, Ill be in DR on the 3oth, landing in Punta Cana. Hope to see you around so I can say hello. i'm heading to puerto plata Tuesday the 31st. What is the name of the joint in Santiago? I want to stop there and eat while Im driving through on my way to PP.
I agree with you about Castaways Bistro my favourite is the stuffed chicken and the lobstercargot its to die for. Still waiting for you to join us on a Monday night for Bbq and karaoke at Herman 311. Keep up the good work.

Man you made me hungry the way you enjoy food. You are a real Dominican -gringo!
please Jamie let me know the name of the doctor for the therapy. my kids have the same thing and i prefer a doctor there.
Great list, and great video!! I’ll be definitely trying Noah and Acasa next year in Santiago.
Jamie, when you go to Santiago again, try one of the most iconic restaurants, El Pez Dorado in downtown.
"Bliss" in Cabarete, hands down best in town.
Hey. Great video. Any recommendations in Las Terrenas? I’m meeting Kash the cap Cana realtor in Las Terrenas to look at some property in January. Can’t wait.
Two in Jarabacoa…
El Balcón (on the hills can see the whole valley. Chef from New Hampshire) Amazing in every way.
Pele, in town. This is high cuisine and well executed. Their wine room is top notch. Service impeccable.
You have confirmed Santiago’s place as the foodie capital of the DR. 🤣🤣🤣
Walked by Detroit Pizza yesterday! Would have tried it if this video was out😂
Will you be expanding to semi annual mixers in the future? It would be great if you made a quarterly mixer (every three months) so that expats and visitors can have a chance to attend depending on when they are visiting.
I didn’t even watch the entire video, but like I always say TRUST EL GRINGOO 🔥
