Bake and Shark!! #1 FAST FOOD in Trinidad and Tobago - Maracas Bay!!

[@sophiaisabelle027]

This place is totally mesmerizing. Their food is unique yet it tells something about their history as well. We appreciate Mark Wiens for showing us what it’s like to explore places that may not be well known. They sure have a lot to showcase apart from the food they serve. They’re all hospitable, kind, friendly, and warm. May God bless them.

On day my son had a customer who traveled 5 hours to his business, he gave him some food, he asked " where can I get this food to buy "? My son said to him, your parents have come from Trinidad to eat this kind of food, you can't buy this in Canada, I am so happy to see you enjoying the most of the long life living people. May God bless you richly and guide you through your life's journey, and protect you from all dangers. I love you from my heart ♥

No one can replicate Trini spices, composition and texture combinations. They made Indian food lighter, tastier and better. Plus they have Chinese and African influence. How can you beat that combination? I find whenever there is an Indian, Chinese and African fusion in food, it tastes insane. Jamaican, Malaysian, Peri Peri Mozambique are examples. It's the best food in the world when those 3 cultures collab.

[@imacarguy4065]

Can you elaborate because this comment is iffy when you look at the Food history of Trinidad? For one, If you're basing Indian food off the piss poor Indian restaurants locally, you're being disingenuous. Local Indo-Trinidadian food might win on Nostaligia though. Plus, taste is subjective. And it is lighter as you said. But the whole reason why it's lighter is due to the lack of ingredients available to the Indians to make their dishes when they came to Trinidad. They had curry powder provided by the British and that was more or less it. This powder was created by Indian merchants to trade with the British. This is likely why there is less sauce in curry chicken and why curry chicken is a different dish from Chicken Curry. Considering the fact that Trini spices is heavily based on what was coming out of Asia and being spread by the Europeans as well as what was being cultivated locally by the Indigenous people, I'd say it can be more or less replicated. Composition and texture is debatable. Also, a lot of your examples for insanely tasty cuisines are based off predominately Native, Indian, Chinese, Middle Eastern flavors and spices. Southeast Asian countries basically combine Chinese cooking techniques with Indian spices. Africa Bird eye chillies come from America and Peri Peri seasoning was likely created by the Portuguese. That part is a hot topic though. The Africans contributed certain cooking techniques with the most notable one being caramelizing with brown sugar. Stewed meat and Trinidadian Pelau uses these techniques. I will admit that I personally think that using sugar to caramelize meat etc is something black, possibly creole Caribbean people came up with. I've watched a lot of African people cook but I have never seen this technique. I've never seen Indians or Chinese use it either. I feel like we really leave out indigenous people and their contributions to the world cuisine and especially Caribbean Cuisine. We have banger food. You're right about that. Just wanted to clarify some things based on your comment.

The pineapple is my fave part since it balances it all out. Fried bake is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside with a buttery and slightly sweet taste, the shark is salty and juicy and well seasoned, the veggies in the toppings add a fresh crispness, but the pine (and tamarind sauce) is where it's at. Not everyone can make it well, but when you get a tasty bake and shark your beach day is 10x better.

The food on Trinidad and Tobago reflect the variety of people and cultures that have been mixed together on both islands. Caribbean food is rated as one of the best foods in the world because of its seasoning process. All Caribbean islands season their food differently so the taste is unique to each island.

thanks Mark you are really traveling and eating all the famous traditional foods of Trinidad and not just leaning to one particular food group.

He will experience the majority of the popular local cuisine or foods, we all mix together to form our lovely culture and people, we are one people under God, we are Trini 😃❤

[@nnekaedwards9270]

@@jhenbarrow9435 oh dear ... I feel your pain ... why not get the recipe ... most of the ingredients aren't that exotic and the shark can be substituted with another type of fish ... like, personally, I don't like shark ... I prefer cat fish, which I think is a popular alternative for the sandwich here ... and depending on where you are, you just might be able to get some of the condiments like tamarind sauce or garlic sauce ... if you can't get tamarind sauce, you could maybe get some mangoes and make curried mango instead (as a substitute) ... but, I know ... in the moment, you were wanting to have bake 'n shark filling your two hands ...

The way Mark says the word "pepper" each time he mentions pepper sauce when in Trinidad. Its like "Pepa" Pig. Love it! The guy puts one spoon of it on the plate. Mark, "just leave the jar on the table please so i can have it with every mouth full".

Hi

[@avibhagan]

actually, nothing mark did on his trip is considered touristy, these are all the thing Trinidadians do , regularly !

This is normal for weekends and days off or even during the week nothing touristy about what they are doing.

Thank you mark! this reminds me of how muc i take for granted in my country. for such a small country of 36 miles we have soo much diversity in food and culture. And theres lots more i hope u continue to discover.
