Yummy I miss some good home cooking.
NICE WITHOUT THE RICE SOME VEGIES WOULD BE GOOD
that’s a mouth watering dish
now that’s good food!!
Oh my finger…!!!my mouth watered….I woulda eat this in one breathe…..
An attractive plate of food.
However, it portrays what is wrong with our cuisine in Dominica and the wider Caribbean. The typical Dominican and Caribbean meal is loaded with carbs, salt, fat, and sugar. That meal in the pic, for example, is at least 90% carbs. Even for persons who have a very active lifestyle, this is too much. Get rid of the rice and add some vegies. The provisions are complex carbs so, we can use some of them. The white rice that we just so love is simply bad for the body.
This is pure wickedness wi today dere. Here I am eating nuggets and ketchup and now you post this? I would pay a lot of money just to smell this plate of food.
that plate missing a slice of pizza and some chicken nuggets. To complete this meal i would add 3 boil eggs.
Oh how I’d have this now
The plate dont go with the food. carbs good for you, stop those foolish thing about carbs. We eat plenty breadfruit and cococnut, dasheen and cocoa tea and all that is fat and we were all slim. Is all the processed rubbish we eating that messing us up. Take out that old yellow rice and add some green pawpaw or cristofine and enjoy. Dominica nice. Amen. Nice photo
AMEN TO THAT

To make it a worthy local dish please replace the rice with some vegetables.

A lovely picture and mouth watering to some but if this is a reflection of our eating habits in Dominica, it says a lot as to why there is so much obesity.No need for all this carbohydrates.We can grow and consume much vegetables as well.No offence intended, just a thought.

A nice fresh garden salad on the side would compliment the dish very well.
i concur!
WHAT IS SO MOUTH WATERING ABOUT THAT? SMFH
not our fault…when we hungry everything watering our mouth. ‘milay mangez caca…..’
ya man, just go ahead and eat your macaroni and cheese pizza
lol!!
for true! ayo never see food ? I doh see nothing dere mmmmmmmm
I see something that supposed to be illegal during this time of the year….but, I do not blame them…but, too many carbohydrates. A little vege would be just right!!
hahahah you took that from the tip of my tounge.
come on people, your voting reflects your collective attitude…. we not making an issue about it, but it IS illegal at this time of year…
is that true or isn’t it??
we must be be humble when it is required..
I agree, it looks real nice, but vegetables needs to be in order. Dashine is not one. I am not hating the dashine, but it is not veg.
From the comments here, I see that most people are of the opinion that this crayfish was caught out of season, but where is the proof? this picture may have been taken in October last year or even in 2010. The fact that it is only now being submitted is not enough proof of a breach of the law. Great photo!!
some persons refrigerate their crabs etc so tey can eat when its not seasonal
