The local food is a blend of French, Caribbean and West African cuisine. Therefore, among the numerous specialities, you wil find Buljow (flying fish served with bread buns), stuffed crab or the Calalou soup (a green spinach soup). You must also taste the national dish, the ''mountain chicken'', which as its name does not suggest, is made of fried or panned frog legs served with a Creole sauce!
As is the case in all of the Caribbean regions, you can enjoy a host of tropical fruits, including: guavas, pineapples, mangoes, bananas, coconuts, papayas and carambolas.
As for drinks, try the punch made from exotic fruits, the Dominican rum and the local beer called Kubuli. lastly, do not miss trying the delicious fresh fruit juices which are on sale everywhere.
