32:04 Thank you so very much, David... It really was a pleasure meeting you in person, and even though it was for a short time, you made us feel so comfortable around you as if we have known each other like forever. We at Captin Doubles Maraval will forever be grateful to you David on the free exposure you did for my business and by extension, my country Trinidad and Tobago. Our cheese pie made with mozzarella is now called The Famous Cheese Pies by DavidsBeenHere. I pray that your life will be fulfilled with good health, strength and happiness.

[@Davidsbeenhere]

Thank you so much Shiva, that means so much to hear that. Hope to be back in Trinidad and Tobago sometime in the near future too. Have a blessed week and thanks again!

[@shivaramjagasar562]

Well....if that's the case, we must meet up and spread the DBH Hot Sauce throughout the island. I'm quite certain it will do pretty well..

[@2KGrind09]

Ms Helen is so special. She is so sweet..... I love her food so much, I talked about her while I was visiting Jamaica

[@sairaharricharan4298]

Great video as always David. J & D Caribbean owners are my cousins. So proud of them.

[@andreaagwuibe8490]

I love her food and she makes me feel so welcome.

[@trevormanning1678]

Hey David! Great video as always 👍🏾… Your personality, politeness, professionalism and being so friendly make you a perfect person to do KZbin videos. It’s a pleasure watching your videos.Keep up the good work and very best wishes in your career.👍🏾

[@2075vj]

I will checkout Helena’s spot next time I visit Houston Tx. Thanks David.😊

[@mention]

Don't bother. It's not that good.

[@terrancecaldwell2863]

Helen’s deserves the press, I’ve always wondered why more people don’t know about it but I hope this vlog doesn’t Keith Lee this place for my own selfish reasons lol

[@MsEmpress-Rahming-48]

Ackee n Saltfish is the best ❤

[@SigmaHailey]

This is going to be good....Caribbean foods especially Trinidad ones.....are the best......our doubles which I know is a favorite of you and most of us. ....just good to know Houston has it all....Thanks David ..be safe.Peace.

[@andreaagwuibe8490]

Jamaica better

[@gregorywomack6142]

Bro no one told about the Caribbean Hot Pot in Houston, TX. They have amazing authentic Jamaican cuisine. If you're ever in the Houston area their located in the North side of Houston

[@Edgie84]

Omg Thank you!!!! I live in Houston and did not know we had a Trini restaurant. If course I shared it with my friends and family they did not know! I’m so excited cannot wait to get some doubles, Pholourie and roti.

[@paulhauschild766]

omg HOUSTON we coming

[@annmariesingh8751]

David sounding like a seasoned trini, please come for carnival.

[@ukbusiness8811]

I've been making curry potatoes 🥔 for years only thing I dint mash dem so.. I'm glad your taking note about talking over the pot ..🤢👏🏼💯

[@JudyT868]

Hi David. What an enjoyable video to see. True, authentic, delicious Caribbean food, as far as I can see. What I loved was that everything was so clean, well kept and sanitary, and the people were so nice and friendly as with the people of the Caribbean/West Indies. Very well done. BTW, those doubles were mouth watering. David in doubles heaven😋🤗, and the Jamaican patties, there is nothing better than the real thing. BTW, did Nathan get married yet? If so, send him and his wife best wishes for a long and happy life together. Sending love and blessings to you, your daughters and the rest of your family. Mucho amor 🙏🏻❤️ have a pleasant weekend.

[@Davidsbeenhere]

Judy! So great to see you and thank you so much. Totally agreed on all fronts and I am still dreaming of those delicious doubles. Nathan got married yes! The ceremony was amazing in Florence, Italy. I have some of the footage coming out eventually but it was June 26th and they are on their honeymoon for a bit longer. Nathan says he is so grateful for the comment and he's wishing you a beautiful week too.

[@JudyT868]

@@Davidsbeenhere Thank you very much. Can't wait to see the videos. Wow. He finally did it. Congratulations and best wishes to Nathan and newly wedded wife (sorry, it's been so long, I don't remember her name). I am so very happy for you Nathan. Sending love and blessings to everyone. David, love to you too as always 🙏🏻❤️

[@SigmaHailey]

I'm happy to know Nathan is married...wish him every good there is....and thanks for Judy asking.....would love to see some photos.

[@JudyT868]

@@SigmaHailey Hi Shabana. Remember when I used to bug him about setting a date for the wedding. Well he finally did. So nice to see you here again. I am a moderator on a channel there in Trinidad and we talk about a lot of serious topics along with having fun. "Sana Trini for Life". Maybe you can subscribe if you wish. We do a lot of live chats on mornings and at other times during the day. Hope you and Hailey are well. Have a blessed day and weekend 🙏🏻❤️❤️

[@Riio_actinup]

Hey David, Rio here. What kind of gem stone is on that blue ring you wear? (if you don't mind me asking) great videos btw! 🔥

[@illyaleeper4629]

blood clot Yankee never seen butter beans in oxtail he has been to Jamaica plenty of times.. respect your food looks delicious shouting you out from my Island 🇧🇧💯 Respect that's real authentic Jamaican cooking right here 🇯🇲

[@guillenlandburg]

[@jjdrp2k]

J&D is in Katy, TX. It is my go to roti spot since moving here from DC. Always good food and friendly service.

[@rosel4611]

@@jjdrp2k I have never heard of them, now I will be paying them a visit. The food looks absolutely delicious. I can’t wait to try them ❤️

[@blissfullyblessed1000]

Yes David come back to Jamaica 🇯🇲.

[@dwighttheflight]

Amazing video David. Next time check out Cool Runnings Jamaican Restaurant. Very authentic and delicious Jamaican food!

[@michellesadler-comerie6312]

Great video loved the food wish I was there eating also. You should video your camera man eating and sharing his comments. 😄

[@snesleywipessqueegeeservices]

Sings Pass the dutchie (kutchie) when it aint a BM song lol. David is a hoot bra...🤣

[@CK-qe6cf]

Give him a E for effort....now i'ma enjoy the food tour🫠

[@denisebrown144.]

Next trip you Houston you have to check out Jamaica Paradise Kitchen 🇯🇲 in Cypress, TX!

[@annettelivermore1125]

Love what u doing I know it's delicious one suggestion try bread crumbs instead of corn starch

[@nikki6987]

Yes, you must experience a Trini Carnival.

[@nram1]

At the last place, the crust may not be as flaky but they have meat in it and not that watery stuff others have.

[@cydneystephen2814]

Yes David. Guyanese friend here. It’s curry goat 😂. I’ve made curry potatoes but didn’t mash them. Delicious I’m sure. I don’t cook with salt too much so my butter is salted. That’s a lot of butter 🧈 😮. Let me watch what she’s doing. Gotta cook down that curry so it’s not gritty but smooth 😋😋😋. Funny David I cook oxtail for hubby but I don’t eat oxtail but I’ll tear up the gravy with rice n peas. Ackee 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼. Omg. Heaping portions. Now I want rice 😂. Ginger beer and kola champagne my fav. Hubby likes cream. David I didn’t know Houston had Jamaican and Trini culture and food. This is amazing. Pylowri ( spelling 🤷🏻‍♀️? 😂) doubles, mini dumplings for corn 🌽 soup 🍲. I don’t care for Sorrel; love ginger beer and Maubi. I’d be eating that aloo pie with a fork or spoon 😂. Too messy for me but know it’s heavenly. Love a good soup. Was hoping to see roti and Puri. Does your camera 🎥 man eat? We probably just don’t see it. I’d be dying watching you eat 😂. The patty looks a little stiff like the pastry isn’t flaky enough but if that unique flavor is there then it’s all good. Oh David what happened? As you were leaving the patty shop saying let’s go through video went black til the end. Well great vid. Whenever we visit Houston at least we know these spots. Thanks for sharing 🤗

[@marieward8940]

Happy for you queen blessings for you.

[@bobbyhawk8797]

Ohhh more food

[@winsome-qv7ii]

Curry Goat and rice Oxtail and rice with slices of plantain on the side oxtain and butterball are even better Enjoy your food

[@Wilcoranking]

[@IQ_YRNIC52]

HELEN IS THE BEST… AUTHENTIC 100%

[@SuperSaiyanSumo]

[@IAMGulfKoastGangsta]

Helen's Kitchen is in the Hiram Clarke area, basically the Southwest side of Houston but they don't like being considered the Southwest. Whatever tho.

[@abk8152]

David cheers me up on my bad days I have a beer brother 🍺

[@rvotbeats]

Welcome to HTown 🤘😎🍽️ 🍖🔥

[@PapiShampoooo]

[@Finalslayer420]

David if u ever go back 2 that Jamaican place tell Helen 2 come 2 Virginia. I wanna her Jamaica dishes here.

[@jjdrp2k]

If you are in Northern VA, there are some decent places there and in DC. I love Pimento Grill in SE DC.

[@quantumflyer8002]

Awesome video. There's another trini place you should try, D'caribbean curry spot cuisine in Pearland, worth the trip. Safe travels!

[@jjdrp2k]

Definitely worth checking out. I had the roti there. It is bigger than my head and my greedy self could not finish in one sitting. It was decent, but not the best I have had. So far, it is a Trini place in Baytown.

[@hyacinthkhalif1897]

yes carnival i think you should david

[@marionhill4634]

I'm going to Huston for sure❤

[@Trini_Skunt-Troll]

Forget de sloppy dude just throw down and enjoy… same with de doubles, you have de right technique already (de number of bites don’t matter 😂) savor de goodness with each bite…and all these foods are constructed to your preferences, speak up on the things you want/ don’t want to add on…

[@orinthiajames9954]

I am a Jamaican and i was trained in food and beverage after migrating to the SSA i observer in many of these food places they do not cover their hair it is very important that they cover their hair they are preparing food for customers to eat it is not hygienic to be preparing food with your hair not covered

[@DRELAW12]

In this video she has a hat on her head

[@r49y92]

So glad you didn't go to Cool Runnings , the customer service is terrible there.

[@zibizob]

[@chalando6124]

[@MIMI232]

David, just a tip the “is it goat curry or curry goat” is getting a little old now! Just a tad bit old..! It’s whatever you wanna call it!

[@shani5345]

I like it. It’s fun watching people be themselves.

[@MIMI232]

@@shani5345 That’s awesome!

[@Stewy-xw9fz]

You wouldn’t say chicken barbecue or fish steam or chicken fry. You would say barbecue chicken, steam fish, fry chicken because we barbecue the chicken, we steam the fish, we fry the chicken. We curry the goat and chicken and that’s why we say curry chicken and curry goat because we curry it. We did something to it. We say barbecue wings not wings barbecue. We say coconut rice not rice coconut. We say fruit cake because we did something to the cake. We add fruits to it.

[@Stewy-xw9fz]

You wouldn’t say water distilled or water purified. Instead we say purified water and distilled water because we did something to the water.

[@MIMI232]

@@Stewy-xw9fz I’m not sure why you sent me this detailed explanation! I’m aware of this already! I’m Jamaican & say curry chicken however I found it annoying that he brought it up in every video! It’s boring now! Hence my comment. Have a good day!
