I had a meeting downtown and I was looking forward to a oxtail stew dinner (with the bone on) but I was told the location had changed. Oh Oh! now what?
When I got off the streetcar I was talking to my friend and he asked me where I was and he said to eat at this place.
I look up from my phone and here I am. Bingo Oxtail it is!
As soon as I walked in I could sense we were on island time due to the line up and the slowness of it all and the miserable looking customers.
So I ordered the boneless goat special instead which had rice and peas and curried potatoes. $7
It took a long time to get this onto the serving tray and I cannot figure out why. The workers were busy but in no hurry.
So I can say it is worth the wait and they do have Dragon Stout in the fridge so its all good.
Lay back, relax, your in Trinidad and things take a while but its worth it! Home cooked Trini food made by people who care!
I would add a star if they added another person for the dinner shift to speed things up but 15 minutes is a bit much to make up a dish from the hot serving trays.
Its not a fancy place but when have you ever had Roti and oxtail in a place with cloth napkins and white table cloths?
