i think the best way to distinguish Caribbean curries from East Indian ones is that in the West Indies, the meat is often marinated in green seasoning. In Trinidad, that would usually consist of grinded green onions, shado beni or bandhania (also known as blessed thistle or culantro, garlic, pimento pepper, and scotch bonnet pepper. I also like to add Spanish thyme as well. It gives the dish a distinctly West Indian flavour that's very different from the curries that you'd find in India.

Wicked episode. Quebec seems to be the last bastion of Mom n Pop home cooking -from all cultures- in Canada. From my experience the rest of the country has rolled over and accepted inferior chain franchises (ie Tim Hortons etc. In Quebec it feels like a greater appreciation is placed on homemade food and tradition. We also have wicked roti shops in Ontario but Im happy to see some positive exposure for lesser known Montreal establishments

I find it interesting how Caribbean food is prepared in Montreal vs Ontario. Looks like a lot of the meat there in Montreal is ground meat where I am in Burlington Ontario (do a search for D Hot Shoppe on YouTube) the Caribbean food tends to be dark meat based off the bone stews. I love doubles. In Toronto there are some Caribbean restaurants that are also serving Bake & Shark. See Bizarre Foods show on YouTube in Trinidad & Tobago episode.

Mr
Why are all these Indians from India leaving comments. Leave us alone for Gods Sake with your dirty oily food. We are descendants of Indian labourers that were taken from Bihar & Uttar Pradesh in the 1800s to the Caribbean islands of Trinidad & Guyana. Do some research before you leave senseless comments

I don't understand how roti can be different. It's Indian food. It got exported with slaves. That's it. Its Indian food. Just serving it different style doesn't change the process of making and spices and the soul of it. It's all the same thing.

Lucas is low-key one of the best YouTubers out there. He is probably the most genuine creator on the network. Absolutely zero ego and zero fake honest behavior a la Casey Neistat and Markerplier.

This restaurant is actually so trash, the workers servers are all straight rude. The food is over hyped and so not worth it at all. Terrible terrible experience.

How is any of this authentic Caribbean cuisine? It's mostly from Trinidad and isn't even remotely decent looking compared to food you'd get from the Caribbean
