Patty Shack, Roseau, DOMINICA
So Patty Shack is a fast food chain on Dominica, and I wasn’t too impressed. I guess I’m used to the speed of American fast food chains, and this place was slower than I’m used to. It took a good 15 minutes for me to receive my order. The shrimp were hard and dry and the fries were limp and soggy.

View of downtown Roseau. This was not my favorite island of the trip. We were verbally harassed by a group of locals and generally felt uneasy thereafter. While there aren’t too many tourist attractions in downtown Roseau, I would definitely suggest walking in groups.
I wanted to take the time to address the heated comment below. In this blog, I recount many of my food and travel experiences both positive and negative. These are solely my own opinions and descriptions of what I experienced at that time. They are not meant to be a definitive depiction of a particular venue or location. Although I was not “invited” to visit this country, I expected to have a safe and enjoyable experience as a foreign traveler nonetheless.
Listen! This is my home country i dont respect you talking smack about it! If you havent got anything nice to say about my island, dont say nothing at all! Talking as though anyone invited you there anyway
