Goat Curry at Seattle's Only Authentic Trinidadian Restaurant - Cooking in America

[@ZeeshanMuhammadX]

Sheldon is such a great presenter. He's very humble, doesn't insert himself into the story and lets the restaurant owner take you on their journey and allows them to thoroughly explain why they're cooking the flavours they're cooking. The presenters Lucas and Sheldon are why I am subscribed to Eater channel :)

[@hawaiiguy1]

Sheldon --- Hawaii represent !!!

[@ladyshkspre]

Oh yes, Lucas has been a fav for a while of course because he has such a great personality. But I noticed lately Sheldon has been growing on me too. I couldn't quite figure out what it was about him that I enjoyed so much but what you said about how humble he is and how he lets the restaurant owner do most of the talking. . .THAT'S IT! He doesn't showboat and overtalk the chef who is being highlighted. Love that! I also love that he always gets in the kitchen and helps out, even if its something as menial as chopping veggies he seems keen to help out. I love Lucas and Sheldon, keep it comin' Eater!

[@sbalchan]

Zeeshan Muhammad totally agree. He's such a humble yet knowledgeable soul.

[@cornelioatmeal]

you can really see how comfortable the people he interviews are

Curry GOAT....that is how we SAY it

[@mikehari5658]

[@LukeCageforhire]

Salim Uhuru yes they do.

[@LoveNaisa]

Jamaicans say Curry goat too

[@flipp5000]

Wrong some Guyanese say goat curry...I'm Guyanese and I've always been saying curry goat or curry chicken,the "curry" is the adjective which is describing the noun "goat"

[@Cxnvict]

Guyanese is the only ppl who say that

That food got me shook. True grit, awesome kitchen.

[@riseseast6864]

Wonderful person Aunty Ji is. Her story is heartwarming. I'd love to meet her whenever I'm in the Seattle area and of course feast on that tasty food. There may not be that many 'West' Indians in the Seattle area, but there are plenty of Indians there that I hope support her by visiting and trying out the food.

[@kaus21]

Just went to this spot and OMG it was fire. Pam was there and was super nice too.

[@marycharles1602]

This is seriously yummy food. Love it thanks for the time to post it.

[@MarleyBM199]

They had the audacity to shoot a video about Trinidadian cuisine and title it "Goat Curry". smh

[@chellyforde7270]

MarleyBM199 I know.. As a Trinidadian, it’s curry goat !!

[@shaunadillon9600]

Exactly

[@ettaphil9586]

@@ugotserved911 explanation: goat which is curried is curried goat. A boy who is fat is called a fat boy. Not a boy fat.

[@yourhighness4746]

Mil gracias por el video, me encanta tu sencilles, eres un magnifico presentador y a la senora felicitaciones, todo se ve exquisito.

[@DarthBalsamic]

This is my childhood. I grew up on all this stuff and still eat it.

[@mayena]

First known Pam's Kitchen through Guy Fieri's Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. 3:41-3:44 West and West-Central Africans came to Trinidad and Tobago from forced labour etc slaves not through voluntary servitude.

[@vanessalilianherbert8409]

I was thinking the very same thing...!! Thanks for making the correction.Pam did some re-writing of history there. Her food looks terrific.....and that's GOOD!!

[@QGTM868]

I think she meant slaves in a less harsh way.

[@forgetfulfunctor1]

Yall can see my other response. But yall should know that we say servant to.mean slave. What do you think?? We dont know about slavery??? Blasted baizuo Americans, think they need to teach the trini man that slavery existed...

[@mayena]

@@forgetfulfunctor1 Why the respond like that. I am not American.

[@dc.pxrecious]

forgetfulfunctor1 servant and slave has two different meanings and how you know where Mayena is from. You real fast and outta place

[@aedean]

I’m a simple man. I see a new video with Sheldon I click play and give thumbs up.

[@jyeturk7]

I think this dude is a good host. He always brings out authenticity in the guests. Makes for engaging episodes.

[@nigelkhan9278]

Pam went easy on him . In Trinidad the peppers we use is scotch bonet and Scorpion pepper.

[@mikehari5658]

Great video, will have to check this place out when i make it to seattle. Proud to see this as a west indian.

[@TheQueenIsWithin]

I am so proud of her. She worked hard for 13 years and followed her dream with her children's support.

[@Drigoon12]

Trinidad food is so good, I'm so jealous of that goat.

[@Cxnvict]

You want someone to eat you too? 🤔

[@2075vj]

Thanks for sharing. Made me miss my New York Trinidadian community where they made the best Caribbean food. Moving onto Florida let’s see what happens.

[@Nikeel_A.W]

West Indian and Caribbean food is sooooooooo underrated. There are not nearly enough good West Indian spots to eat at. It's great food, super flavorful. Damn now I'm craving some oxtail....

[@gk891]

I think West Indian food is some of the best in the world. Just the sheer variety of food you can find is amazing. I think it's because the Caribbean is such a rich melting pot of many different races and ethnicities.

[@satoamoy]

Been to Pam's in Seattle Wallingford area, so nice to have a taste of Trinidad and the Caribbean in the Pacific North West!

[@theone6]

Amazing wow congratulations on living ur dream if Americans came together like others this wld be a better world

[@beauti11000]

Representing....Trinidad... wow... great job!!!!

[@damaramohammed]

nah u lose points dey

[@krisnarohansingh917]

LeeAnne Gold, you're correct when you say that those of African ancestry originally in Trinidad were slaves. However, no slave was transported directly from Africa to Trinidad. They came from Southern USA, South America and other Caribbean islands after the King of Spain in 1783 signed the Cedula of Population via his representative José de Gálvez. Prior to the Cedula, only Spanish nationals were allowed to own land in Trinidad and since the Spanish population was rapidly dwindling, the spanish had to do something to increase the population to keep the colony going. The Cedula granted huge tracts of land to any slave owner who moved to Trinidad with their slaves, hence, the influx of slave owners from the USA and South America and Caribbean islands. After emancipation in 1833, there were a total of 17,539 African Slaves in Trinidad, the majority of whom left the plantations for work in the towns. The sudden loss of free labour, and labourers in general, adversely affected the Sugar, Cocoa and Coffee plantations so replacements had to be found. Portugese Indentured Labourers were imported, mainly from the Madeira Islands. However, they were unable to work the sugarcane fields in the hot sun. Chinese labourers were then imported but they too couldn't handle the heat and hard work. The next best thing was the Indians (very poor Indians called coolies) because they were easily fooled into making the arduous journey, a source of very cheap labour (cheaper than the Portuguese & Chinese), and most had experience planting and harvesting sugarcane in India. The first ship to land in Port Of Spain's harbour was The Fatel Al Razak on May 30, 1845 from Calcutta having sailed 14,000 kilometers across the Atlantic, called Kala Pani (Black Water) by the Indians. There were 232 Indian men, women and children aboard that survived 103 days at sea. Indentureship continued from 1845 up until 1917, when it formerly ended. During that period, over 140,000 Indians had been transported to Trinidad. Additionally, other Indians migrated voluntarily. They consisted mostly of priests, craftsmen, tradesmen, and even bona fide crooks. So, by 1917, Indians significantly outnumbered those of African ancestry. Today, the population of Trinidad and Tobago is about 1.4 million of which approximately 35% are of African ancestry, 35% Indian ancestry, 23% multi-racial (mixed), and 7% from all over the world. This ends the synoptic history lesson of Trinidad. Hope you enjoyed it.

[@jadea.2694]

Our History class taught us that estate owners were British, that the wealth went back to Britain.

[@akil2746]

Yes Jackback, half of the slaves in Trinidad came DIRECTLY from Africa. Please read your history. Thanks.

[@worldtravelingtv1828]

Curried goat. Also, not sure if Aunty Pam adapted her recipe, but most Trinis season aka marinate any protein for several hours before cooking. The roti looked amazing though!

[@snehaganguly2178]

Monique Tomlinson well it is curry in the first place and at the end of the day it doesn't matter really lol

[@snehaganguly2178]

which indian taught you that..........

[@arafat464]

Hey Sheldon. can you describe the food more? I need to imagine myself tasting these delicious dishes.

[@gk891]

Looks good but I`m a little surprised that she used a combination of cilantro and parsley in the curry. I guess it might be a case of personal preference or using what`s available around you but Trinis usually use a combination of green onions, shado beni (or bandhania), and thyme. And those herbs are usually grinded with garlic, onion, pimento pepper, and maybe scotch bonnet pepper to make a puree and that is used to marinade meat in before the curry is even cooked. But I guess everyone has their own way of cooking.

[@frederiquealondra8190]

Maybe just maybe she can't get her hands on bandania there. Also you people are not taking into consideration that she is catering for a largely non trini clientele. They are not accustomed to heavily seasoned meats like the average trini. I live where there are next to no West Indians and those that I've tried to feed wasn't too much into the heavy seasonings. Jesús Christ that all trinis could do watch and criticise without even thinking

[@gk891]

i wasn't criticizing her way of cooking the curry. I very clearly mentioned that it might be a case of personal preference or using what's available around you. I also mentioned at the end of my original post that everyone has their own way of cooking. I don't see how my post was negative.
