Food and Drink
Dominica's cuisine is simple. You'll find basic fried chicken and fish and chips, creole cuisine like goat columbo and callaloo soup (a creamed spinach type soup), and Caribbean staples like roti (curry-filled flat bread). The national dish is the ubiquitous mountain chicken , actually giant legs of a mountain crapaud (toad) endemic to Dominica and Montserrat that is caught only between September and March to keep its numbers from dwindling. Prepared in a variety of ways, it does taste like chicken, and goes down nicely with the light local beer, Kubuli . Due to the countless fresh-water sources, the tap water here is superb. Bottled water is also readily available for hikes.
