Authentic TRINIDADIAN FOOD with the QUEEN of CHULHA!! 20+ Trini Dishes in Siparia, Trinidad!!
????????CHEF JASON PERU:
????????CANDICE:
???? MY TRAVEL/FOOD BLOG:
After exploring the northern and central parts of Trinidad for the past few days, my friend and I headed to the southern part of the island to meet a woman known as the queen of chulha on Trinidad!
My afternoon with Jason and Candice began in Siparia at Aunty Doll Chulha ke Ranni. Chulha is an earthen clay stove that’s fueled by wood, which flavors the food you cook over it—bread, curries, and more!
⚽️BOL:
???? DAVID’S BEEN HERE MERCH:
The house was surrounded by bush. The woman here, Aunty Doll, cooks using a chulha, and she sells them. Because the chulha is made of mud, it conducts heat very well.
They also put a tawa atop the clulha. I met Aunty Doll and watched her and the other women make a coconut bake, green mango curry, dal roti hops bread, baked chicken, curry duck, baigan choka, chulha curry chicken, pholourie, and more.
Doll served me some pholourie with pommecythere. They were amazing together. I loved the soft texture.
Next was the saheena, or spinach fritter, which she split and added pommecythere on top. The pommecythere is a fruit chutney with garlic added. It’s so good!
They even make a pholourie curry called kurhi, which is super dense! The pholourie is made with split peas and absorbs the liquid. Her homemade hops bread looked like fluffy little pillows!
Then, she mixed up some dough and water to make dal puri. I learned that Doll has seven children!
The mango curry looked amazing. Then, I tried her fresh hops bread with cheese inside. Next, I got to see all of the chulhas she’s made, and one of the girls there ground up some chilies, coconut, and salt into a paste.
Then, I tried the sada roti with the roasted coconut chutney, which was nearly black. It was smoky and had a tiny kick. It was really nice!
Next, she took the ham out of the oven. It smelled amazing! Then, Doll patted and rolled out some dal puri and cooked them on the tawa. Then, she put it underneath so it puffs up and gets even crispier!
Next, she pulled out a baked chicken pie with macaroni and melted cheese on top. Then, they gave me some pepper roti. It reminded me of some Greek breads I’d had.
It contains pepper, garlic, onion, carrots, and cheese, and wasn’t too spicy. I loved the layers on it!
Then, it was time to finally eat! We had curried chataigne (jackfruit), chana and aloo, kurhi (pholourie curry), murtani (eggplant, onion & tomato curry), chalta anchar (a spicy, condiment made from elephant apple), pommecythere chutney, curried saheena, bhaji (spinach with coconut cream), roasted coconut chutney, mother-in-law (a spicy pepper chutney), pepper roti, dal puri, curried mango, and Trinidad sweet rice (rice pudding).
We ate it all on a banana leaf like a sadhya in Kerala! We had 13 different items! The dal puri was flaky, and I loved it with the kurkhi. The curried multani was smoky and peppery, as was the curried mango.
I adored the curried saheena, which was like a thick, dense bread. The curried chataigne was my favorite so far. The pumpkin chouka was like pumpkin pudding, and the bhaji was like a creamy, smoky spinach dip.
The mother in law wasn’t too hot, and the pommecythere was great. I also loved the cardamom and cinnamon in the sweet rice!
Round 2 consisted of a juicy honey smoked pork, the fluffy coconut bake, spicy roasted curry duck, meaty common foul, curried stewed chicken (which almost reminded me of jerk chicken), juicy and smoky chulha baked chicken, pungent and fatty jeera pork, and crispy baked macaroni pie with chicken.
What an incredible meal and experience!

Tobagonian TRINI STREET FOOD & Attractions Tour of Tobago!!
????????CHEF JASON PERU:
????????CANDICE:
????????DAVID:
???? MY TRAVEL/FOOD BLOG:
With another day in Trinidad and Tobago ahead of me, I decided to go all-out with a food and attractions tour of Tobago! Let’s head out and explore the island!
⚽️BOL:
???? DAVID’S BEEN HERE MERCH:
By boy Chef Jason Peru and I started at Primitive Arts, a small stand where a woman sells handmade wooden crafts. I could see carved wall hangings of turtles, fish, and jaguars, as well as masks made from calabash shells!
I saw a mask that almost looked like a pumpkin, as well as necklaces, cowrie shell earrings, bags, postcards, maracas, and shirts. The calabash shells were all really unique. Everything cost me 400 TTD, or about $65 USD.
From there, we drove through a small, quaint community to the Mystery Tombstone of Plymouth. It’s from 1783 and is known for its baffling inscription, which says the tomb is for a woman named Betty Stiven who “was a mother without knowing it, and a wife without letting her husband know it except by her kind indulgences to him.”
It’s located just 20 minutes from Plymouth Point. Then, we drove across the island, through the interior, to Fort King George in Scarborough. It sits on a hill overlooking the Atlantic Ocean on the opposite side of the island.
The fort was built in the early 1770s as a fortification for the newly appointed capital of Scarborough. It was known as Fort Castries during a French occupation from 1781-1793 and then fell under British Control and renamed Fort King George after King George III.
It houses the Tobago Museum and a jailhouse. Below us was the beautiful town of Scarborough and beyond it, the ocean! There were lots of mossy colonial buildings, and some barracks.
The island was very sleepy. We drove to a small tent near the ocean called Wendy’s Taste the Difference. They were selling barbecued pork, blue marlin, stewed pigeon peas, fries, salad, a cheesy garlic potato pie, tamarind sauce, garlic sauce, and barbecue sauce.
I started with the BBQ pork, which was a meaty pork shoulder. I loved the smokiness and the sweet sauce. Next was the provision salad, which contained green figs, sweet potatoes, potatoes, and breadfruit. It was soft and creamy and so tasty!
The cheesy garlic potato pie was like au gratin potatoes. It’s the perfect Sunday meal! I also loved the salad, which was fresh and crunchy. We followed that with the blue marlin, which was insane. I’d never had sauces like this on barbecued fish. It was so meaty and moist!
The stewed pigeon peas with rice and macaroni salad were also amazing. It all went well together and created an amazing food experience! Each plate cost 55 TTD each, or about $8 USD each. It was so good, I couldn’t stop eating it!
Then, we followed the main highway down to Pigeon Point. What an awesome day in Tobago!

King of Curry Goat & Duck!! FAVORITE FOODS in Trinidad & Tobago - Caura River Lime!!
???????? Trinidad Scorpion Chili Peppers:
????️ Get Smoked Ghost Pepper: (affiliate link)
???? Subscribe:
TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO - One of the favorite food pastimes in Trinidad is to go to the river and have what’s called a “river lime,” where you hang out with friends and family, cook some delicious food, and enjoy nature all at the same time. Today we’re heading to Caura River, where Kev is going to cook up some delicious curry goat!
Big thank you to #visitTrinidad for inviting me to Trinidad and Tobago and for making this trip happen! Guide to the things and food in this video:

Lester Nanan: Nanan Caroni Bird Sanctuary Tours
We drove out to Caura River to first have our river lime. Kev was already busy in the setup tent kitchen along the riverside. On the menu, the main event was the Trinidadian curry goat, but we also had chana and potatoes, and curry duck. What I love so much about the Trinidad and Tobago curries are the layers of flavor - from the curry powder to the onions and garlic, to all the green seasoning like shadow beni and green onions and thyme. The recipes are amazing. We had an amazing feast, and I especially loved the curry goat and curry duck!
Nanan's Caroni Bird Sanctuary Tours - Next in the afternoon we headed out to Nanan's Caroni Bird Sanctuary Tours for a boat tour and dinner at the amazing bird sanctuary, where scarlet ibis roost for. It was an amazing experience, and even better because we had dinner on the boat!
And that completes another amazing day of food and sightseeing in Trinidad, food and nature at its best!

One of the truly hidden gems in Trinidad, Hundred Steps Beach! Keep Trinidad clean & love your home!
Hundred Steps Beach is a secluded gem with calm clear waters, great sand and picturesque surroundings set at the base of a verdant green cliff. It is a serene destination by virtue of the difficulty to get to it. Located after Las Cuevas on the North Coast Road, Trinidad. Situated at the base of a cliff, the beach is accessed via a short nature walk from Mitchell Trace to the top of a concrete staircase that leads to the beach. However, you are surprised to learn that a section of the staircase is missing and the completing your descent requires a climb done a rope tied to a tree. But once you are passed the adventurous scramble down the cliff, you realize that this is a destination worth the effort getting to.
NOTE: Several security concerns have been raised about this destination. Please exercise extreme caution and visit in groups.
My name is Alan Charles (the Trini Surfer) and I am here to show you the beauty of my home country TRINIDAD and the rest of the world on my TRAVELS.

The Ultimate TRINI DOUBLES TOUR in Port of Spain!! 5 Doubles BACK TO BACK in Trinidad!!
????????DAVID:
???? MY TRAVEL/FOOD BLOG:
After nearly two weeks of traveling around Trinidad and Tobago, my time in this beautiful island nation was finally at an end. But I couldn’t leave without eating doubles one last time! Come with me as I go on an epic Trinidadian street food tour and eat lots of doubles before my flight home!
Doubles are a staple in Trinidadian cuisine. They’re the ultimate street food on the island. Their base is a bara, which is a fried, golden-brown flatbread. It’s then topped with chana (chickpeas) and gravy, and sometimes various chutneys, vegetables, and meats. Then, they add another bara!
⚽️BOL:
???? DAVID’S BEEN HERE MERCH:
Joining me on my final Trini food adventure was my friend David from Foodie Run TT. Our first stop was Sauce Team, where they made me a doubles topped with chana, cucumber, and chadon beni sauce, which is made from culantro.
Their toppings also include tamarind sauce and roasted pepper sauce. They also sell pies and even triples! The doubles and pies cost $6 TTD, while the triples are $8 TTD.
It was so soft yet crispy, and I loved the pepper. Eating doubles gets messy, but it’s so delicious. I loved that the chana was perfectly cooked. They weren’t too hard or too soft. It’s so good, you have to lick the paper after!
Then, I watched them make an aloo pie using the same toppings. It looked delicious! After that, we drove to a doubles and pies stand on the western peninsula run by a husband-and-wife team. I was told their pepper sauce is really hot!
I’d never been to this part of the island yet. I could see lots of small towns and fishing villages.
We arrived at Western Peninsula Doubles and Indian Delicacies. There, they offer lots of chutneys and sauces, including coconut chutney, roast pepper, and masala chili.
They have one called “mother-in-law,” which contains carrots, hot peppers, garlic, and more. It looked really hot! They open at 5:30 in the morning and they’re popular, so get there early before they sell out!
I got a triples with chana, pepper sauce, coconut chutney, roast pepper, tamarind, and masala chili. There were seven condiments in total!
It was really hot. I loved the sweetness of the tamarind and the denser baras. The combination of flavors and textures was excellent. Then, we washed it down with some sorrel-tamarind juice. It was very sweet and a bit tangy!
I bought a jar of the coconut chutney and the roast pepper pepper for $30 TTD each. The people there were so nice!
Then, we headed back to a suburb of Port of Spain to a doubles place called Castro’s. It’s been open for 27 years, and at this location for 7.
My doubles came topped with chadon beni, cucumber, chana, and mango! It was hot. There was more heat than sweetness, and there were lots of vibrant colors!
The cuisine here is a wonderful fusion of Caribbean, Indian, African, Chinese, Portuguese, and Latin American. Then, we headed east from Port of Spain to Ken’s Hot Doubles and Pies in Curepe.
It’s a super popular place that’s been open for 18 years. I could see them making doubles and aloo and cheese pies. The people there were so amazing.
They gave me tons of fillings. It was very creamy and tasty. I loved the crunch of the cucumber. It was lighter in spice and sweeter!
Finally, we drove to the airport and got doubles at S. Hanif & Sons in the food court. This one was lighter than the others. The tamarind was really nice! I loved that all of these doubles were different from one another!

Night TRINIDADIAN STREET FOOD TOUR of Ariapita Ave & Savannah Strip in PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad!!
????????CHEF JASON PERU:
????????DAVID:
???? Visit My Travel Blog:
After landing in Trinidad and Tobago, I met up with a couple of friends to go on an amazing Trinidadian street food tour of Port of Spain at night.
After night fell on this beautiful island, I linked up with my pal Chef Jason Peru, who would be with me for the rest of my trip trough Trinidad and Tobago. Our first order of business was exploring the street food stands along Ariapita Avenue! The street never sleeps!
⚽️BOL:
???? DAVID’S BEEN HERE MERCH:
Our first stop was Doubles Den, which sells doubles. Doubles are flatbread sandwiches made with bara (a fried, golden flatbread) topped with channa (chickpea curry), various chutneys, and sometimes meat and vegetables.
Here, they can add curried duck, goat, lamb, chicken, shrimp, and more! They have tons of delicious sauces! I wanted a bit of everything. The gravy from the duck looked so rich!
I learned that they hang the bara up for a few minutes to let it dry a bit, so it can absorb the flavors of the other dishes more readily. You tear the bara and use it to pick up the various ingredients.
I loved the bara. It had an omelet-like texture. The meat was so tender and flavorful. The duck was incredible, as were the coriander and curried spices. I loved the fat and the meat falling off the bone. The flavors were insane!
Doubles are traditionally more simple and just veg dishes. These are more gourmet doubles. Some people are doubles purists, but these gourmet ones are also pretty popular!
Next, we hopped in the car with our friend David and drove to Yousef Gyros, where they serve Syrian and Lebanese food. The place was packed as it’s super popular! I saw them cooking fries, lamb shawarma, fried chicken wings, beef, falafel, and more! We went with a lamb and beef gyro.
They built us a gyro with lamb, beef, tomatoes, peppers, mushrooms, barbecue sauce, garlic sauce, ketchup, cheese, and pineapple on a toasted pita. They gyros were huge and so delicious. There were so many flavors and textures.
The crumbly, caramelized beef and the thinly cut lamb were excellent. The pineapple added some sweetness and the vegetables were nice and refreshing! It was big and messy and so good!
Then, they brought us fries, fried pita chips, and some massive chicken wings with ketchup and garlic sauce. The chicken was high quality, perfectly seasoned, and crispy. The garlic sauce was good enough to drink! The garlic sauce on the pita chips was excellent. Then, they brought us a salad made up of the gyro filling!
From there, we drove three minutes to Queen’s Park Savannah, a huge, 260-acre recreational area with historical buildings and food vendors. There were so many people there!
At Jam Bites, we grabbed some chicken feet in a pickled sauce with cucumber. The cucumber had a nice flavor, and the gelatin-like skin and cartilage of the chicken feet was good, but the chicken meat and fat at the bottom had more flavor!
They added some chadon beni (culantro sauce) to the liquid in the cup for some added flavor. Then, I chugged the liquid. It was sharp and herbal!
Then, we saw vendors selling chow, which are bags of various picked fruits and vegetables with a salt, black pepper, lime, garlic marinade. They can do it to pineapple, watermelon, mango, plums, and more!
We got a pineapple, watermelon, prune, and mango chow. The pineapple was pickled, peppery, sweet, and savory. The watermelon was so unique and spiced, while the prune was meaty. The juicy fruit and savory spices were unreal!
Then, we finished with a fresh pineapple-orange-passionfruit-grapefruit juice. It was a sour, sweet, and refreshing way to end our Trini street food tour!

???????? JASON:
???????? CANDICE:
???????? DAVID:
Back in March of 2022, I spent a week and a half traveling around the islands of Trinidad and Tobago with my good friend (and local celebrity chef) Jason Peru, celebrity hairstylist Candice Mohan, and local food expert David.
Together, we started in the capital city, Port of Spain, where I got my first taste of local doubles on the island of Trinidad! From there, we explored more of the island, from Santa Cruz and Maracas Beach in the north to Chaguanas and Siparia further south.
???? MY TRAVEL/FOOD BLOG:
???? SUBCRIBE TO MY NEWSLETTER:
Along the way, I tried dozens of unique Trinidadian foods, including saheena, pholourie, pommecythere, baigan choka, bake and shark, aloo pies, hops bread, curry armadillo, curry iguana, and much more!
From there, we hopped a short flight to Tobago, where I tried some incredible fried chicken, as well as steamed bhaji, smoked herring, saltfish buljol, coconut bake, fried shark, jack fish, curry crab and dumplings, and even lionfish (which I speared and caught myself)!
It was a fantastic whirlwind trip that gave me an even greater appreciation of Caribbean cuisine and culture, and one I hope gave you more insight into this beautiful part of the world.
In this video, I’ve compiled every dish I tried in Trinidad and Tobago into one massive video. I hope it whets your appetite and inspires you to try these foods and visit the islands yourself!
And if you’re from Trinidad and Tobago, or have tried the food before, what’s your favorite Trinibagoan dish? Tell me in the comments below and let’s chat!

SAN FERNANDO Trinidad and Tobago Caribbean Walk Through covering major Streets by JBManCave.com
Best San Fernando. Trinidad and Tobago. Caribbean Walk Through covering major Streets. Walking around the city of San Fernando proper in Trinidad, an island in the Caribbean which makes up a Republic known as Trinidad and Tobago. The name of San Fernando was named after Spanish royalty. The people of San Fernando are friendly, easy going as you would expect from the Caribbean and there is a whole bunch of shopping. While there is a key below for you to skip around various footage of specific streets in San Fernando you can only truly get the gist of San Fernando by watching the whole video from start to finish.
This is a walk through covering all the major streets and roads that are the most traversed when visiting San Fernando. There will be lots of commentary and I will be leaving the natural sounds so you can hear what I hear. Like all videos in JB's Man Cave, I keep things real by showing you raw footage so you can pick up the details. This is not a tourist video although tourists can use it to gauge what the streets and people are like in the city of San Fernando.
For those curious as to why some parts may be blurred: Usually if the camera focuses too much on the faces of children or some awkward moment then I blur it to protect the integrity of the people around me. These videos focus on the general surroundings and not specific people unless I am conducting an interview or approached by someone during the course of recording.
Here is a simple San Fernando walk through key:
0:00:00 - Start Carlton Centre car park.
0:03:08 - High St.
0:11:56 - Coffee St.
0:17:14 - Presentation College
0:38:43 - PTSC Bus Terminal.
0:39:38 - Wharf at Queen St.
0:55:13 - San Fernando Teaching Hospital

After exploring the northern part of Trinidad for a couple of days, I headed south to Chaguanas in the central part of the island. There, I was going to try a wide variety of dishes, including Indian food and Venezuelan street food!

They also made rolls coated in ground chickpea paste called saheena, as well as kachori. They’re also famous for their doubles! The doubles come with chana and different chutneys.
First, we all tried the saheena. It had some tamarind chutney on it, which added some sweetness. The leaves and chickpea batter were unreal, and I loved the light fry. I could eat it every day! It was a steal for just 5 TTD/$0.74 USD.
Next was the baiganee, a fried and battered eggplant. It was so delicious! I loved the crunch, the pickled mango, and the eggplant itself. It was too good, and filling!
Next was the kachori, which they added chana and chutney to. It was like a dense, crumbly, savory cake. It was similar to a falafel. It’s a delicious vegan dish. It falls apart, so you have to dig in with your hands!
Then, we jumped on the doubles, which are fried flatbreads called bara topped with chana and chutney. It was so messy and so tasty! The soft, crispy bara absorbed the chana. It was so good, I had to lick the paper afterward!
We finished up with Apple J, which is a sparkling apple juice drink made by Solo. It was really refreshing!
Then, we drove to Anndres, a spot that sells Venezuelan food. Trinidad is just seven miles off the northern coast of Venezuela. The staff is all Venezuelan!
The made a reina pepiada arepa with chicken, avocado, and chadon beni. It’s the top arepa in Venezuela. They made another arepa with tuna and cheese, along with a cachapa.
Cachapas are buttered corn pancakes with white cheese inside. They’re my favorite Venezuelan breakfast dish! They put a mountain of cheese inside it and topped it with avocado and more cheese!
Next, they made patacon, which are fried green plantains that they mash into a patty and deep-fry again. Then, they top it with guasacaca sauce (which is made with avocado, cilantro, oil, and peppers), mayo, ketchup, lettuce, tomatoes, shredded beef, bacon, ham, and a fried egg.
Then, they top it with more sauces, white cheese, avocado, and another tostone.
It’s like a massive breakfast sandwich! Then, they deep-fried some tequeños, which are fried cheese sticks.
At our table, Jason and I started on the tequeños with the guasacaca sauce, which is like a creamier guacamole. The tequeños are crispy on the outside and soft and gooey on the inside.
The cachapa was so good. The fresh sweet corn, gooey cheese, and avocado was an amazing combination. This dish beats the Indian dosa for me. It was moist and soft, and not too crispy on the outside.
Next was a Maltin, an authentically brewed malt drink. It’s sweet and non-alcoholic, and contains molasses.
Then, we tried the arepas! I ate the tuna one while Jason had the reina pepiada. The tuna was so flavorful and refreshing. I loved the cheese and avocado inside! You can put anything inside an arepa!
We followed that with the patacones, which is essentially a plantain burger with shredded beef. The four sauces, plantains, beef, lettuce, egg, bacon, and cheese blew my mind. Everything was fresh and perfectly cooked!

MAP OF TRINIDAD
greetings my friends. this is a map of Trinidad. Major landforms in Trinidad include the hills of the Northern, Central and Southern Ranges , the Caroni, Nariva and Oropouche Swamps, and the Caroni and Naparima Plains. Major river systems include the Caroni, North and South Oropouche and Ortoire Rivers. There are many other natural landforms such as beaches and waterfalls. Trinidad also has two seasons per the calendar year: the rainy season and the dry season. El Cerro del Aripo, at 940 metres , is the highest point in Trinidad. It is part of the Aripo Massif and is located in the Northern Range on the island, northeast of the town of Arima. Trinidad is the larger and more populous of the two major islands of Trinidad and Tobago. The island lies 11 km off the northeastern coast of Venezuela and sits on the continental shelf of South America. It is often referred to as the southernmost island in the West Indies. With an area of 4,768 km2 , it is also the fifth largest in the West Indies. Caribs and Arawaks lived in Trinidad long before Christopher Columbus encountered the islands on his third voyage on 31 July 1498. The island remained Spanish until 1797, but it was largely settled by French colonists from the French Caribbean, especially Martinique. In 1889 the two islands became a single British Crown colony. Trinidad and Tobago was granted self-governance in 1958 and independence from the United Kingdom in August 1962, and became a republic in August 1976. thats all. please comment and subscribe for the best maps. goodbye.
saludos mis amigos. este es un mapa de Trinidad. Los principales accidentes geográficos en Trinidad incluyen las colinas de las cordilleras norte, central y sur, los pantanos de Caroni, Nariva y Oropouche, y las llanuras de Caroni y Naparima. Los principales sistemas fluviales incluyen los ríos Caroni, Norte y Sur Oropouche y Ortoire. Hay muchos otros accidentes geográficos naturales, como playas y cascadas. Trinidad también tiene dos estaciones por año calendario: la estación lluviosa y la estación seca. El Cerro del Aripo, a 940 metros, es el punto más alto de Trinidad. Forma parte del Macizo de Aripo y se ubica en la Cordillera Norte de la isla, al noreste de la localidad de Arima. Trinidad es la más grande y poblada de las dos islas principales de Trinidad y Tobago. La isla se encuentra a 11 km de la costa noreste de Venezuela y se encuentra en la plataforma continental de América del Sur. A menudo se la conoce como la isla más al sur de las Indias Occidentales. Con una superficie de 4.768 km2, es también el quinto más grande de las Indias Occidentales. Los caribes y arawaks vivían en Trinidad mucho antes de que Cristóbal Colón encontrara las islas en su tercer viaje el 31 de julio de 1498. La isla siguió siendo española hasta 1797, pero fue poblada en gran parte por colonos franceses del Caribe francés, especialmente Martinica. En 1889, las dos islas se convirtieron en una sola colonia de la Corona británica. A Trinidad y Tobago se le concedió el autogobierno en 1958 y la independencia del Reino Unido en agosto de 1962, y se convirtió en república en agosto de 1976. Eso es todo. por favor comente y suscríbase para los mejores mapas. adiós.

Les principaux reliefs de Trinidad comprennent les collines des chaînes du nord, du centre et du sud, les marais de Caroni, Nariva et Oropouche, et les plaines de Caroni et de Naparima. Les principaux systèmes fluviaux comprennent les rivières Caroni, Oropouche Nord et Sud et Ortoire. Il existe de nombreuses autres formes de relief naturelles telles que des plages et des cascades. Trinidad a également deux saisons par année civile : la saison des pluies et la saison sèche. El Cerro del Aripo, à 940 mètres, est le point culminant de Trinidad. Il fait partie du massif de l'Aripo et est situé dans la chaîne nord de l'île, au nord-est de la ville d'Arima. Trinidad est la plus grande et la plus peuplée des deux principales îles de Trinité-et-Tobago. L'île se trouve à 11 km au large de la côte nord-est du Venezuela et se trouve sur le plateau continental de l'Amérique du Sud. Elle est souvent qualifiée d'île la plus méridionale des Antilles.

????????CHEF JASON PERU:
???????????? VILLA BEING:
????????CHEF MICHAEL JORDAN:
???? MY TRAVEL/FOOD BLOG:
My adventures across Trinidad and Tobago continued on the island of Tobago at Villa Being on the northwestern side of the island. Villa Being is a luxury villa where they serve some delicious food! Come join me as I enjoy Tobagonian food at a luxury resort in Trinidad & Tobago!
Joining me was my friend Chef Jason Peru. There, Chef Jonathan Michael Jordan would make us a sustainable, eco-friendly three-course dinner and some drinks. I couldn’t wait!

???? DAVID’S BEEN HERE MERCH:
First, they greeted us with some fresh coconuts to drink. The coconuts grow right on the estate. The water inside was so pure and fresh. It was the perfect way to cool off after a long, hot day on the island!
Then, we started our tour of the estate, starting with an outside seating area. Next, we headed inside to the library/reception area where they have books by local and international authors. Outside the doors is their pool, and beyond that, the Caribbean Sea.
The entire resort infuses elegance and natural beauty. They had an entire patio filled with outdoor furniture. I didn’t realize Tobago had such a rocky and hilly shore.
Then, we saw their 4 rooms. They accommodate up to 10 people. They’re gorgeous and feel almost like a tree house and offer views of the Caribbean Sea! The rooms have their own private balconies, and they also have saltwater pools and outdoor showers!
The beds have mosquito netting on them and the bathrooms is beautiful. We also visited the Grand Pavilion room, which is a gorgeous room of relaxation. It looked like Greece!
Next, we headed into the kitchen and met Chef Jonathan Michael Jordan, who was super young! He was grilling some mahi mahi on top of some green fig leaves. He also made some ceviche shots called pacro shots, garlic sada roti, and curry conch. The conch looked unbelievable!
The pacro shot is made from a sea crustacean that also contains chadon beni, garlic, onions, and lime juice. The curry conch also contained coconut milk. We started with the pacro shot, which was citrusy and extremely tasty. It tasted like clams!
The curry conch was amazing. I had to eat it with the garlic sada roti. I loved the coconut milk gravy and how the bread soaked it up. Next, they brought us a Masi Tupungato, a white pinot grigio from Argentina and our next course. It included salted bhaji, mahi mahi, coo coo, and a coconut-rum Creole sauce.
The smoked mahi mahi had a nice smoky flavor with coconut, and the grilled coo coo was like a crispy polenta. I loved the moist, crunchy bhaji, which wasn’t overcooked at all. Everything was fresh, healthy, and organic! I loved the sweet, dry white wine with it. This was Tobago fine dining!
Finally, we had some crème brûlée for dessert! The added whipped cream and cassava pone on top. It’s a play on the local flavors. It blew me away with how decadent it was!
