Santo Domingo Night Street Food Experience
Pickup in Santo Domingo
The tour begins with pickup from the traveler's hotel, Airbnb, apartment, or private accommodation within Santo Domingo. From there, the route continues by private SUV into local neighborhoods where nighttime food stands are part of the city's evening routine.
Pica Pollo San Vicente
The first stop is for pica pollo, Dominican-style fried chicken. The chicken is served freshly fried, crispy on the outside and juicy inside. Pica pollo shops are a familiar part of everyday food culture in the Dominican Republic and are closely associated with the Chinese-Dominican businesses that helped make this style of food popular across the country.
Patricio Chimi - Pierna en Plato & Yaroa
The second stop includes two different dishes.
The first is pierna en plato, roasted pork served with fresh vegetables and sauces. The combination of warm pork, crunchy vegetables, and creamy sauces makes it one of the classic foods people look for at night.
The second is yaroa, a rich local dish made with fries or sweet plantain, seasoned meat, sauces, and melted cheese. It is one of Santo Domingo's most recognizable late-night comfort foods.
Leo Chimi - Dominican Chimi
The final food stop is for a Dominican chimi. The sandwich is prepared on the grill with seasoned meat, cabbage, tomatoes, bread, and sauces. Travelers can watch it being made before eating it fresh and hot in the casual neighborhood atmosphere where this type of street food belongs.
Drop-off in Santo Domingo
After the final stop, the tour ends with drop-off at the traveler's accommodation within Santo Domingo.
