After arriving in the village of Calibishie on the northeastern coast of Dominica, I set out with some local cooks and fishmongers to prepare and enjoy an exotic sea urchin dinner at Rainbow Restaurant and Bar!

RAW SEA URCHIN: We headed to the rocky beach, where the sea urchin guy was retrieving them from the water and eating some of them raw. He used a knife to slice it in half, cut off all the spines, and let me try some of it. Then, he also tenderized an octopus against a large rock.

RAINBOW RESTAURANT AND BAR: Our cook, Naz, prepared the sea urchin by sauteeing it with diced peppers, green onion, celery, garlic, parsley, cumin, and green seasoning. It was fantastic! Then, we enjoyed a curry octopus made with coconut milk, celery, onions, garlic, peppers, green seasoning, and herbs. It’s fresh, tasty, and tender. Come to this restaurant for great food and incredible people in Dominica!

STEEL DONKEY: Finally, I met with the bartender, Jordan, invited me to have a Steel Donkey, which is a local cocktail that comes in two glasses: a shot in a glass and a beer in a glass. It was powerful and needed the chaser!

  1. Bless up to the fisherman and chef of such yumminess,many thanks for sharing these videos of preparation that is why embracing and keep culture is important,for most foods are taught through generations by watch help and learn methods..much love..one love..all praise the High King..amazing Dominica indeed..may he keep all the beautiful islands of the Caribbean..respect

  2. Nice video. The sea urchin shell really makes for nice souvenirs. Calisbishie is also rich in history. Nas was very hospitable and her talking to you, having you taste while asking "isn't that good?" is what normally happens in our home kitchens in Dominica. Cooking is a whole experience. The fresh seasonings is a must have in Dominica, makes the food so tasty. I like this restaurant and I will visit someday soon. The food looks real good. Thanks again David. Thank you Nate also. David I truly appreciate this. Dominica is grateful. God bless you and yours. We love you.

  3. I’m from Dominica (living abroad) and I’d never heard of this place! Definitely going to go there the next time. The food looks amazing! I don’t know if I am as brave as you to eat the raw sea urchin though 😂

  4. It is called Uni and most appreciated in places like Japan. Quite an expensive delicacy actually. Glad that you enjoyed it.

  5. I didn't know we could eat them …I was once pricked on my big toe by one of them lil burgers..lolol

  6. David, you are a wild and crazy guy, so adventurous: eating the raw sea urchin. It's still moving: it's ALIVE. Sea urchins are aphrodisiacs, so watch out😋😂. Naz is a good cook but I still can't eat the octopus or the sea urchin, raw or cooked. The food looked delicious. Fresh seafood cooked with all fresh herbs and seasonings. Tasty. "Finish it up baby." I love Naz's friendliness and hospitality. What a nice setting for a restaurant!!! Such warm and nice people. Long ago we used to mix coca cola and beer to make a drink called 'shandy' and I believe that they do sell it bottled now in Trinidad. So David, you have to visit more of the islands to enjoy the type of foods that we have grown up with: all fresh, no leftovers. And, no, I would not eat raw seafood. Good to see Nathan enjoying himself too. Nice job.🤗❤️🇹🇹🇨🇦

  7. Nas really makes me proud to be Dominican🇩🇲 she did sold the island ✌️ and Davidsbeenhere thanks for the promotion of my wonderful island
