On our drive from Cabarete to Hotel La Catalina near Cabrera, we passed the nursery/cafe below. Wow, what a discovery! The American expat owner has lived in DR for 30 years, and opened this restaurant and nursery just two weeks ago. She makes her own cheese and milk from an attached dairy, and the restaurant is situated among an immaculately manicured garden of orchids and exotic plants. The furnishings are top notch, and you'd be hard-pressed to find a more relaxing and classy experience on the entire north coast. We had breakfast, and can absolutely recommend the florito sandwich, the "mangu" (a mash of local root vegetables), and the homemade Greek yogurt with spices. Oh, and don't miss the coffee!
