🇩🇲 More Dominica Videos: • Trying DOMINICA STREET...
When indentured servants from China arrived in the Caribbean in the 19th century, they brought their cuisine with them, integrating Chinese flavors into a melting pot that also includes Amerindian, Creole, and African influences. Join me as I explore the world of Dominican Chinese food!
RIVERSIDE INTERNATIONAL RESTAURANT & BAR: After watching Chef Steven prepare several dishes in the kitchen, we dove into our incredible Dominican Chinese spread. They brought us potstickers, chow mein, a Szechwan beef bowl, sweet & sour chicken, spring rolls, lobster stir-fry, ginger rum, and fresh passion fruit juice. Everything was incredibly fresh and flavorful, but the chow mein was definitely one of my favorites!

About Me:
My name is David Hoffmann. Since starting David’s Been Here in 2008, I have traveled to over 1,300 destinations in 95 countries to experience and document unique cultures on my RUclips channel, travel blog, and social media.
I highlight culture and historical sites, but my passion is food! I love to experience and showcase the different flavors each destination has to offer, from casual street food to gourmet restaurant dining.
Thanks for watching and subscribing!
Another amazing video! Dominican is an amazing island! Much love from Trinidad 🇹🇹 🇹🇹 🇹🇹
Thanks so much ❤❤❤❤
Loving this video. Thank you, I had no idea this place existed until you featured it.🇩🇲
That’s why I produce videos on destinations that are little known ❤
Same here! And I'm Dominican (migrated almost 30 yrs) but visit pretty often
I like how you corrected your pronunciation of the word "Dominica" even though I personally had no issue before. Loving the videos
Yes but I am trying to not get that one wrong. It’s a hard one 😂
What a refreshing change, the food looks delicious! The Caribbean is truly a melting pot of cultures and cuisines. Wish you had gotten to taste Lebanese and Syrian food as well. There aren't any Lebanese nor Syrian restaurants, but there are many prominent families who have been living in Dominica probably since the early 1900's. The Chinese have only been in Dominica for the past 20 years or so, and as a matter of fact there were Taiwanese living in Dominica before the Chinese.
Wow this is incredible information. I needed a friend like you Karen to tell me these things! haha. I tried to read about as much history as possible but there were so many different groups, I got about as far as the Kalinago, West Indian, Chinese and then of course French families that are now throughout the island. I didn't get a chance to meet any Lebanese or Syrian but that would have been an incredible story. Next time I visit I'm going to write to you and ask for some guidance hahaha. Thank you Karen!!
David, Dominica is melting pot of people ,try geting the book called "The Dominica story" The history of that island is fascinating. By people's last name you know where the bloodline came from. Antigua, Montserrat, St Kitts , Martinique, Guadeloupe and St Lucia. I never knew my grandmother on my mum's side was St Lucian until she gave me stories of how they came to Dominica (70) years ago.
@@belleFille234 The families moved among the French islands. My mother in law is Dominican but her family was also from St Lucia some generations back.
Domineeeka! No wonder so many 1st and 2nd generation Dominican Brits are returning to the homeland. It's stunning. Thank you for every slurp, nom nom and every appreciative mmmm-mmm, man, look at this. Your bubbelehs raised you & Nate well. Does Dominica export much produce? Does it import many tourists? Why is it so little known? The planet's finest ginger, mangoes and oranges grow in those Moins Trois (French, pr. twah) mountains, drawing in the purest cleanest air, water and soil nutrients thanks to those amazing waterfalls. Farming as it should be.Serious question: How do we get there? Toda! ps I want your jobs.
Food is Dominica is different than the Dominican Republic... some folks think it's the same island but they are two different islands.
❤❤❤❤ this is why my first video I start by saying not the Dominican Republic 😊
Yes that's one of my pet peeves in the US. Many people think that you're lying and that you come from DR because they can't bother to google or open a book🙄. Some even think that Dominica is inside of DR. @Davidsbeenhere I love what you do and how you're showcasing my country. This is no hate to you. Thanks for the love.
David thnks for this video because I am Caribbean myself and I never knew they had Chinese there in Dominica as well
Cant decide where the Chinese food is better, both Trinidad and Dominica have similar flavours in most of their cooking. Chinese tastes great on both islands 🇩🇲🇹🇹
Killer mix of cultures, caribbean + Chinese = EXPLOSION of flavor! 🔥❤
Chinese food in the Caribbean is extra tasty for some reason. Maybe its the warmth from the prople and blended cultures.💕😊
I think so too, and the daily access to fresh produce.
Mmm..looks so nice and yummy goes to show that many make the unique beauty of the Dominican..it offers many foods..much love..one love..respect.
Like sugar plums have many ideas floating around in my head..for im such a foodie of all great nations and Kingdoms😘🤔🙏
Not going to lie, the food looks pretty delicious, but the title for the video threw me off because I thought this was Dominican (as in from the Dominican Republic) Chinese food 🇩🇴😂🇩🇴😂🇩🇴😂. I'm from the D.R., so I take a lot of pride in my heritage. Either way, I'm blessed to have viewed this video because I've only ever tried Dominican (🇩🇲) food on one occasion before and I have a lot of respect for what I had, especially with the spices.
Thanks bro! Yea sorry but that’s the best way to word it together. 😂 I am back in DR in March for a big collab. Recs in Santo Domingo?
I had the same feeling... I thought it was Dominican Republic, because the "n"
David I like your new style in starting the videos ... good mix from the way you did it before to now...I appreciate the history lessons.....my fav chinese is Trinidadian ..maybe beacause I'm from here..but I'm sure all Caribbean chinese tastes good...Enjoyed seeing Nate dining with you.....Thanks to you both...stay safe ...blessings....Peace.
Yes we are pushing to make better informative videos. These aren’t vlogs, they are educational movies 😊
@@Davidsbeenhere Yes ..I got so much info that I did not know before...great job ...Thanks again David ..stay safe.
Newest subscriber from Dominica living in Jersey. Love the vibes
Morning David: You sure know how to whet my appetite. First of all, I love the restaurant: it's very clean and the kitchen is well organized too. Passion fruit juice: I can see your PASSION for food.😋. My two favorite foods in the world: Chinese and Indian. Simply delicious. All that food reminds me of when I lived in Trinidad. My father, being half Chinese, knew all the restaurant owners in San Fernando and he would take us every Saturday for some of the sweetest Chinese food. Brings back a lot of memories. So happy that Nathan shared the meal with you in this one. I am going to be very biased and say that Trinidad has the best Chinese food in the Caribbean, although I believe it's all Hakka now, but in Toronto, Guyanese Chinese food is the best IMHO. That food in Dominica looks really delicious too. I could go for some now😋. Should have started with the ginger rum and ended with the passion fruit juice. Ginger is good for the stomach and digestion. All in all, this was very nice along with the nuggets of Chinese history in Dominica and the islands. I know that my Indian grandmother was indentured so maybe my father's father was too. Now hearing that the Chinese were indentured as well. Live and learn eh. Anyway, I enjoyed everything: the food, the history, the ambience and Nathan getting to enjoy the meal with you as well. Good job.🇹🇹🇨🇦 BTW, you have given me homework. Will have to check out Chinese in Trinidad history.🤔🤗 I love the new opening. Big difference. Good job.👍
What a lovely comment as per the usual Judy. I'm so glad you enjoyed it and absolutely the Chinese Diaspora is extremely complex and interesting. I've been learning a lot more about some of the migration that took place at that time and learning! That is so interesting your father was half Chinese. I can only imagine some of the delicious treats you got to try. This Chinese food in Dominica is incredible though. I loved it! And wow about your grandmother. I can only imagine her struggle dealing with that indentured servitude reality. Its sad because we see it still all around the world even in the 21st century. I wish it is a scourge we could be rid of once and for all. You definitely must checkout some of the Chinese History in Trinidad as well as throughout the Caribbean. SOOOO fascinating. Thank you as always Judy and wishing you a beautiful weekend.
@@Davidsbeenhere thank you. I do a lot of research but it's too bad that we weren't taught that kind of history in school, so I am learning now. My Chinese grandfather's history is complicated because we didn't know who he was until he died. And my Indian grandmother (my mother's mother), well we knew her after they had let them go: some went back to India and she stayed in Trinidad..so here I am today, learning what I should have known a long time ago. So you see, David, you are doing very important work. Some people watch for the food and entertainment, but I actually watch for everything and learn as I go along. Thank you so much. God bless you and what you do.🙏💕🇹🇹🇨🇦
Another amazing video!! 🇩🇲🇩🇲
wow simply amazing! you try everything :)
Nathan did really good with that spicy beef soup haha 😄 Riverside makes the best sweet and sour chicken on island hands down!! Nice video, guys!
He was really enjoying it thats for sure. Such good Chinese food and always good to load up on Carbs after a 6am-10pm work day!! Thank you as always for your kind comments Arnella truly appreciated.
David I'm glad you love Caribbean food
I like how you're highlighting the smaller 🏝s.....
Chinese Jamaican and Chinese Trini food is also slammin'. Can't lose with any Chinese-Caribbean fusion food though.
What is the best chinese Jamaican food? Where?
Hi David. Me again. Just looked up Chinese in Trinidad and you are right. They were indentured and worked on the sugar and cocoa plantations. Very interesting history. People should check out all of our past history. Have to go and do some extensive research and reading now. Thank you very much. Very, very grateful.💕🇹🇹🇨🇦
Another great video Dave. I remember you getting that beautiful green ring on your finger from Iran. It's lovely to see you're still showing your appreciation by continuing to wear it. I love your respect for different cultures and love of food. Keep it up son.
I will never take this ring off. It’s part of me now 😊
First time on the trip I have seen your friend super excited to eat the food 😂
LOL, he definitely enjoyed the food but it was mostly kept off camera. To be fair Producer Nate has the curse of the Picky Eater LOLOL. That said thank you so much Roxann you are the best!
I said the same
Good looks amazingly delicious. I love love love Chinese food. I always have Caribbean fusion of Guyana and Trinidad & authentic Chinese food in Toronto. Looking forward to try Dominica fusion. Thanks for sharing David. You rock!
Toronto was actually the other city we didn't mention with incredible Chinese food in the America's. I totally agree the Chinese in Toronto is incredible! This Chinese was also amazing though! You definitely need to try it!
Food looks amazing 😋. Jamaica has a huge Chinese population they probably have the best food too.
I will definitely go there when I visit.. Food looks delicious!!!! This must be the only Chinese restaurant In Dominica. I thought only Taiwanese restaurants that is in Dominica.
Indentured Laborers also went to Belize. We have a huge population of Chinese and the food is awesome!!
I'm heading to Belize next week...get ready for the Belize Series! This is great information and I'll definitely be looking into it further!
@@Davidsbeenhere wow thats awesome. Hope you have a great time. Will surely be tuning in👏👏🇧🇿🇺🇸
Where is the best chinese restaurant in Belize?
@@Davidsbeenhere Chon Saan Palace in Belize City is one of my favorites.
I love that you fixed your pronunciation of Dominica, in the intro. lol
😂😂😂😂😂 Lord knows how hard I tried to get it right but my Spanish accent just kills me with the Doh vs Dah and then adding another "mee" is so hard! LOL. I swear by the end of this series I'll get it right.
@@Davidsbeenhere lolll . I haven't watched entire series, just randomly picking episodes. Have you visited Keepin' it Real in Toucari Beach? or planning to?
I have been there 2 times it's Amazing a time I say a long table full of Chinese people it was so nice❤❤❤🇩🇲🇩🇲
Thank you so much for sharing the food looks super amazing …I personally I think the best Caribbean Chinese food has to be in Jamaica. Jamaica has the best Chinese food ever delicious., and really delicious foods from other cultures as well. I’m a model is out of many one people . …You have to come to Jamaica and try some delicious Jamaican Chinese food, as always thank you for taking us on the journey, really enjoyed watching your Series going from country to country. Best wishes and thanks.
Yes, Chinese Jamaican and Chinese Trini is the best to me as an Asian American. Because Jamaican and Trini food has the spicy and savory so when you combine that with the sweet and savory of the Chinese, it compliments well.
That's the cornstarch slurry...for thickening and shine....yeah
Delicious food 😋😋 enjoy David !! West Indies wow !!🥰🥰🙏🙏
Look at my Godmother Cynthia yayyy! 😁🤗❤
I just love to hear your expressions when you first taste the food…mmmm
I had no clue Dominica had a Chinese restaurant. The food looks good and full of flavour!!
Nate with the whutttt 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 tasting good eh Nate
David taking the bowl to his head took me out laughing. Love it!
Thanks for sharing 🇩🇲
Left Dominica when I was 15 and this Chinese restaurant is also new to me. Lol
What a "Marvellous" comment! But I suppose that is to be expected from the Marvellous M! Thank you for your support and it was SOO GOOD! You must try it when you can!
Guyana have the best Chinese food hands down 🇬🇾
The food looks yummy
wow...i used to lived in Portsmouth, Dominica for a year and never knew about this place
Trinidad has THE BEST Chinese food in the Caribbean... I especially love shark fin soup and Pow!
I disagree.
@@trisha1011 ...And that's your right! Nate asked for opinions and I gave mine. Next!
@@masalamouth But......
@@trisha1011 if you listened till the end the cameraman asked viewers to name the island they think has the best Chinese food hence @MaryMoore’s response.
best chinese food is in guyana and also now in canada bro...
Hi David, your videos bring me joy to see such a wonderful showcase of the island's foods/dishes! Thank you. Even of more importance than the Chinese cuisine, I was hoping you would have showcased the dishes of the indigenous people - the Kalinago, who live predominantly in the (Kalinago Territory) northeast (unless I missed that content). We should always take the opportunity to celebrate them. It is also my mother's heritage 🙂. If you are still on island, please consider this. Blessings.
He have said he has a entire video (segment) on the Kalinago people,he dropped a short about it,the young man making cassava bread. He did alot for a small country but he was there on one of the best times (Independence celebration)
I visited the Kalinago Territory and People and I have an entire video on it! It comes out next week so stay tuned!
@@Davidsbeenhere Awesome! Your channel has amazing content. Continued success to you.
I'm from Portsmouth, thanks for coming! I love your content!
Washington Heigh got the best Dominican food !!! HANDS DOWN 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Word up lol. Let’s be clear!! 🇩🇴
I believe you dear. Folks mix up Dominica with the Dominican Republic. He's in D O M I N I C A that's aaaahhhhh. Not Santo Domingo Dominican Republic. Dominica was colonized by the French and English they speak a broken French. Dominica is called The Nature Isle.
Please note, this is Dominica, an island in the Eastern Caribbean sandwiched between the French Department nations of Guadeloupe and Martinique. The primary languages are English and French Creole/Patois, not “Spanglish” which is spoken in Washington Heights or Spanish spoken in the DR.
@@cleanbowled1767 it’s obvious the person was joking smh
The best Dominican food. But he is in Dominica.
👍🏾 great video
Maybe I'm wrong but I lived in the SF bay area for 4 years and I and many felt NYC chinese food was way better and their China Town. It just hits differently. I felt at the time that the restaurants out there were stingy and that NYC is so generous with their portions. I beg to differ about San Fran, but I believe you have your position for a reason . 😊
Fair enough. I love the respectful disagreements etc. Nate lived in NYC for 5 years too and grew up in SF he says: Dumplings/Noodles better in NYC also portions. SF has better Szechuan/Dim Sum/Other Stuff in terms of Chinese Food. I think SF and NYC have very comparable Chinatown's but SF's has a bit more history and the NYC is more integrated into the city as just "another block" and sort of merges into Little Italy. I think SF feels more authentic in that way but NYC Chinatown is more lively etc. That said, you can get incredible Chinese food in both cities and I'd also put Toronto in the Top 3 as well for incredible Chinese. Hope you get to enjoy some delicious Chinese Food either way Kim! Have a great weekend.
@@Davidsbeenhere well said David. Looks like you are going to be very busy replying to comments in this one, which makes it very interesting indeed.
@@Davidsbeenhere Yes . Very very nice.
@@Davidsbeenhere Yes I think that's exactly right. I was thinking that but didn't know exactly how to put it into words. I like San Fran but NYC has always been my heart and #1 since I was born. My Aunt took us to eat and drink tea in China Town when we were tiny in the 1970's . I always loved NYC China Town. Back then our fave was sweet and sour chicken.
Great Video!! My favorite spot for Chinese food on the island. Great ambiance especially when sitting next to the river big up Steve.
David you need to go to St. Vincent and try our foods there and also the vincy Chinese food. And go and visit the vincy and chinese farms there and see how we grew our foods with the most nourishing soil in the entire Caribbean.
Did you also know that St. Vincent grow and provide the best marijuana in the whole world?
And from what i know we grew and provide our product to the pharmaceutical companies here in Canada. Even though Canada grows their own, it doesn't come close to what our nourishing soil produces for the medical needs here in Canada.
Many people sleep and skip our island because it is small. But always remember this, good things come in small packages.
I am not staying all of this because i am from there. We as a vincy culture give every island their crown, we don't take other culture's ideas and call it our own. For example Trinidad makes the best roti, Grenada makes the best oil down, Barbados makes the best coucou and flying fish, vincy makes the best Calalloo soup and Pelau etc. But in vincy all those foods we make them, but we always put our own spin on things. So we don't take away from the island it's from, so we would say vincy made roti, oil down etc.
We also produce the world's best whale oil. And the only island that has black fish. And last we have some of the best cocoa and make our own chocolate and we make the world's strongest rum. Go check us out too since you are touring the Caribbean.
Ps.... Also check out all of our Grenadines islands too. Many top celebrities own places in the Grenadines. Phil Collins, Oprah, Shania twain etc
Oh and Chinese have been migrating on our island for many many years. I recalled as a little girl growing up our school had a school trip for us to go to one of the chinese farms there. And i was so amazed with some of the food they were growing that we as vincentians never plant before. Also some of the fruits i was shocked. And the owners were very nice They asked us if we would like some of the seeds and some of us took and others didn't. But the Chinese have been moving there since the late 60s as I recall. And when they were asked why they chose St. Vincent out of other places and they said they did their research before they made a choice. And when they found out of our volcano and our rich and nourished soil that is why they chose St. Vincent. Some of their relatives had chosen Jamaica and St. Lucia eventually sold their lands and moved to vincy and started more farms there. So there are many generations of chinese in vincy now. And they call themselves vincentians. Because they are born there and carry a vincentian passport and ID.
This is some amazing information Exotic Beauty and it all sounds amazing. I absolutely will visit trust me! Its my goal to visit the rest of the Caribbean within the next year or so! Thank you so much for taking time to write such a detailed comment with so much awesome information! Have a beautiful evening Exotic Beauty!!!
@@Davidsbeenhere you're welcome. I have been watching you for a while. But never comment until today. Enjoy the rest of your tour.
I got mad love for your channel and mad respect for you. That's why I love the Caribbean such a great melting pot of different cultures and reflects in the food. Have you visited 🇨🇺 yet? Cuban Chinese cuisine is amazing!!
Yes it truly is! ❤ Cuban chinese food where can I find that in Cuba?
@Davidsbeenhere Not sure bro, but Miami got several good spots!!
There are many good Chino-Cuban restaurants in NYC.
I had the experience of watching chinese chef cook right here in dominica. Crazy experience with these dudes. Their methods and kitchen wares are much different from our traditional wares. A pity none could speak English so was tough communicating through google app. Lol. Cool. Good food in ur video I am pescatarian
I’m enjoying all the videos David
I want to eat 😊
I had chinese food twice in guyana um i would say where I got the chinese food first time was good but second time was bland depend on the area and person who cooks it
Hi David, bet you have a lot of subscribers from Trinidad and Tobago.
Hi there Richard. I have a lot of support from T and T! Such an incredible place with incredible people. Have a great weekend!
One thing about David, he gonna enjoy his food! 😂 another great vid! Never even knew about this restaurant before.
P.S. I’m pleasantly surprised at how many Dca vids you have. I thought it would be over by now and I’m so glad it’s not 😆
Woohoo! Sassy Muffin! More Dominica videos to come actually! A few more but I only wish I could do many more. Perhaps next visit?
@@Davidsbeenhere yessss next time!! I was actually thinking that you already got a lot of content but there’s even more to do.
@@Davidsbeenhere yessss next time!! I was actually thinking that you already got a lot of content but there’s even more to do.
Next time you are in Dominica please pop in to see me and my husband. We are in Bellevue Chopin, The Grey House. I would love for you to experience my cuisine. Thank you for your appreciation of my beautiful island.

Dominica never had indentured Chinese workers.
Perhaps they migrated from other Caribbean Islands such as Guyana, Jamaica and Trinidad?
Irene Esch. You are right. The Chinese moved to Dominica in 1991. Not indentured.🇹🇹🇨🇦
Yeah but the history of the Chinese in the Caribbean involves a lot of indentured Servitude. Giving the entire context of Chinese Migration to the region requires a broader conversation and history. I never specifically stated that Dominica had indentured Chinese Workers.
Except to not mention that part of the history of the Chinese people in the Caribbean would be me failing in my duty to provide the greater political, historical, and cultural context of the Chinese people and the region. I never said Dominica has indentured Chinese Workers but the history of the region for the Chinese People is absolutely full of it unfortunately.
@@Davidsbeenhere I am with you there. I did check it out. The history is something that we should all know and I am learning a lot now. Isn't it amazing though? In this day and age, you have to be so specific because it's easy for misinterpretation. So David, I went back and listened to your opening again and you were right. You talked about the indentured Chinese in the REGION and referred to the INFLUENCE of Chinese food in Dominica. Got your back and got you covered on this one.
Another amazing video. The food looks delicious. I don’t eat Chinese because I had a bad experience 36 years ago so I stop eating it.
Thank you so much Margareta. I'm so sorry to hear you had a bad experience with it but I think everybody has got one or two things they had a bad time with and won't eat again! Totally understandable. Have a great evening!
NYC ❤
The food looks amazing! I’m here drooling in Toronto 😂
Hi David and crew! How do you feel that people are receiving your more educational intro now that you were starting to switch up your videos a little bit? Great video just interested? Also, do you prefer this way of producing a video?
The feedback has been very positive with this new style and although it requires a lot more work I think it provides a lot more context and another dimension to the videos besides "eating". I've changed my content a few times over many years and its so important to evolve as the viewer changes! Can I ask, how are you feeling about the new style and content? Do you enjoy it so far? In terms of video performance its certainly gotten very positive response. Thank you so much as always Krista, you are the best!
@@Davidsbeenhere Thanks for the response, David! I really enjoy the new content. I actually prefer more of a mix of eating and travel, which it seems to be the direction that you are going. Keep up the hard work. It is paying off!💜🌎
Yes I one love ❤️❤️🔥❤️❤️ Dominica keep it real
Enjoy David....love from Guyana....

What was the price of everything combined?
CHINES FOOD DOMICAN AND GINGER RUM DAVID MIAMI
😮😮😮

حلو
Receive a hug from us, how much does that dinner cost in dollars?
🇬🇾
Caribbean food is more influenced by Indian cuisine than Chinese.
Dominica was French for a long time. Those islands with a rich Indian cuisine have stronger British ties.
Except MSG and soy sauce and sweet and sour sauce is routine in home cooked dishes.
food looked amazingly tasty but I dont get the Dominican part ...its just chinese food that you can get anywhere
Hey Hajar and thank you for the comment. I think it is interesting to see how food around the world are made in their home country and abroad. While they may not be very different that very fact in and of itself is highlighting something important. The story of immigration/migration and the movement of people around the world is part of the story of humanity. Bringing our traditions whether food, art, clothes where we go is a part of being human and showing that indeed even on the Island of Dominica there is a strong Chinese heritage and culture is a worthwhile endeavor. I think a lot of people when thinking about the Chinese don't think about the Caribbean in general and so I've done a bunch of videos showcasing that culture throughout the Caribbean like Trinidad and Tobago, Guyana etc. I also have done it for Indian Food, Latin Food, US Food, and a lot more. I hope that clarifies my reasons and wishing you a peaceful and blessed weekend Hajar THANK YOU!
Hajar Renate Midbrod: the idea is to showcase all the foods of the island/s. Not just the indigenous but of all the influence of food in the region.🇹🇹🇨🇦
Agreed
Antigua, Spices of India is way too spicy lol not for you I'm sure!
whats the name of the chef??
Why do you have your tats covered on your right sleeve 🤔
Alex Corredor: David wears the white sleeve to protect his tattoos from the heat and the sun.
This is all nice but the most important you didn't visit the carib Territory
The Kalinago video will be released in the near future, he surely went there. Fir a small island he has alot of content.
Atsuchi, I did visit the Carib Territory and I did an entire video on it! Stay tuned it'll be out early next week.
Thank you Danelle! I went to visit the Kalinago and I absolutely did an entire full video on it! Its coming out next week. Thank you for helping me out in replying to some of the comments mentioning it.
Not sure why you were standing and eating - find that disrespectful.
ڈیوڈ دوست اس ملک کے کھانے عمیں بالکل اچھا نہیں لگا بالکل ناکام ویڈیو بنے آپکے اس ملک کا
Liaqat Ali liaqat Ali: to say that you did not like the food of Dominica is a bit much and an insult to the island and the people of Dominica. Just saying. To say that the video was a complete failure because YOU didn't like the food.... well, SMH.
