As in other regions of the Caribbean, the national cuisine of the Dominican Republic consists of meat, beans, fruits, and rice. Fish and seafood of all kinds are also often found in a variety of dishes, but meat remains the main ingredient.
Coconut oil, its juice and pulp are often used in the preparation of Boca Chica's national dishes. Bananas, which are not only fried but also boiled and stewed, are an essential addition to the table.
If you're new to Dominican resorts, the first thing to try in Boca Chica is fish in coconut sauce. The asopao soup, bandera, and mango are equally popular. Abichuela con dulce is considered a traditional dessert.
