Simply the best pastries Caribbean pastries in Brooklyn hands down. everything is very delicious and texture perfect.
Very nice staff and the food is always fresh. Cash only. I have only had the Chana doubles, currant rolls, coconut rolls and cassava pone. The currant and coconut rolls as well as Chana doubles are all excellent and I re-order them constantly. Vegan friendly and great prices !
Delicious and great prices - Roti - huge but I would have liked a little more seasoning and curry taste; still decent - Pone - absolutely perfect; can taste ask the ingredients (nutmeg, extract, etc.) - Current Roll - absolutely delicious - Coconut Slice - delish but a bit dry; could be that I put it in the fridge ... definitely a place you should visit **2hr parking, but busy area, so a challenge
Finally got around to going to this place. I tried the currant roll and the pone. Not everyone know how to make pone. It’s one of those things that you either have a good recipe or you don’t. I had a piece from Errol’s the other day and it was greasy and tasteless. The one from this place though was very good; lightly spiced with a texture reminiscent of my own. Currant roll was flaky, and overall very tasty. All that being said, the long line is a deal breaker for me. Some people could do it, I can’t. A long line for food, imho, is never worth it unless you’re broke and the food is free.
Cannot recommend this place more highly. Their food is amazing, and the people who work here are generous, welcoming, and warm. I had food catered for my birthday and the owner included an entire cake for free (an incredible golden sponge cake that I don't know the name of). For the party I ordered: curried chicken, goat, and beef, and a bunch of doubles. Everyone loved it. The flavor of their food is truly amazing. Also very large portions for little $. This is now my go-to place.
When in new york especially brooklyn this restaurant came highly recommended. It stays busy but the food is quality!!! Authentic caribbean and trinidadian cooking and hospitality. It came Howley recommended.The only knock I have is that they don't take card cash only!! We have to catch up with the times, screw the ATM!!! Offer card services thank you.
I ordered a doubles the other day. So good...and it was a large portion! I'll be back to try their other dishes. Their baked goods looked delicious too!
We spent our afternoon eating here during our weekend together. Is there anything left to desire here? Their dishes satisfy cravings and the setting puts you at ease. Our brief culinary exploration here was reasonable. The spot offers an enjoyable setting.
