767-448-4031 or 767-448-4032 Daily, 7am to 10pm International/Cr ole $$$$ You must drive up a bumpy mountain road to reach this restaurant at Reigate Mountain-Top Resort outside the capital, but the trip is a wonderful sightseeing adventure, and the food is worth the trip. Plan to linger once you get there the views are terrific. The kitchen turns out good international cuisine such as coq au vin, but the spicy Cr ole meals are their specialty. Try the thick calalloo soup, garlic-laced seafood, or spicy mountain chicken. All are delicious. For drinks, stop by Penny Farthing Pub, where the bartender mixes island favorites made with fresh fruits and local rum.
In 1814, the Maroons were overwhelmed by British troops, and their leaders were publicly executed. Many slaves returned to their work on the plantations, but it was too late to save the island s coffee and sugar trade. By the time all slaves were freed in 1834, Dominica was in a deep economic depression, and traditional plantations were struggling.
