Run down hole in the wall places can sometimes hide some delicious treasures.
Woman at the cashier was SUPER shy and had a difficult time with some of my questions, couldn't tell if there was a language barrier or if she just didn't know the answers.
Settled on :
- Small order of Curry Goat with rice and peas and a slice of sweet plantain. Curry goat was tender but salty and gamey tasting.
- (Fried Basa) Fish Tacos - large crispy panko covered filets topped with a sweet brown sauce then a mayo based sauce, diced onions and red bell peppers and a small sprinkling of cheese served with a wedge of lemon. Peek underneath the filet and you'll see a yummy surprise of curried lentils and potatoes. I hate fusion food with a passion (except Chinese and Indian fusion) but this single dish just might change my mind. My taste buds were confused at first, trying to categorize it: definitely NOT Mexican but can taste Japanese, Chinese and Jamaican influences. I gave up trying to pigeon hole it and decided to enjoy all the different textures and flavor profiles instead. The only thing that I didn't care for was the fish itself (too soft, not firm enough) and the price point: not sure if two tacos are worth $9.
- Thick slice of home made pineapple banana bread. Dense and sweet but not overly. Best eaten warmed up with a nice cup of coffee or tea.
