Welcome to Florida !!! It was so great you were here and did a commentary on our local Trini spots. There's quite a few more places around and next time you're here let us know we'll recommend or take you out to a few places. BTW omg I was laughing at your reviews and comments on the taste when we think it's tasting good lolol. I guess our taste buds adjusted and an FYI with Joy's it's not Trini's cooking.....it's Mexicans. Come back soon I'll sponsor you some meals out for your videos. Love to see my Trini peeps climbing the ladder of success. You are authentic, real, drama free (bacanal free) I think I spelt that incorrectly 😆 Keep up the good work.

One thing I could say is that in Trinidad, if your roti is bad, people will let you know by their non patronizing and plus …trinis have lots of choice. In the USA….Choice is reduced and there are many more customers who may not know the original way it should taste. Tsk tsk. Thanks for taking one for the team 😂✌🏾

Thanks for the videos. I enjoy them. You are correct. There's no comparison. The food in Trinidad is way better. I've had doubles at Joy's. It was ok. Not great. I heard from a local that their food is plenty better than Laloo. So I'm glad you didn't have to waste your money. I live in Orlando and sadly, I've never been tempted to buy roti from any of these restaurants. Not even Joy's. Usually when you see 'chicken curry ' it's not Trini but Guayanese. If you're in Orlando during a weekend, my family and I would love to show you around town. Thanks for the great videos.

I live in SoFlo and have eaten at LC Roti, Joys, Laloos, Singhs, Priyas Roti, Ali's and Curry Tabanca. Petty much they all lack consistency- they can be great one day and near tasteless on the next day. Its true that a roti here may cost $85TT, but that is more representative of the current exchange rate. When I lived in TT during the oil boom, 1$ US was worth $2TT. The collapse of the TT economy made US prices seem ridiculous...but in terms of buying power a $12 US roti is cheaper than a $30TT one.

Yep I don't mind paying the price if the quality is excellent 👌

[@plantationslim5140]

Lawwwd stop mentioning the prices in the states the doubles cabal will set price like opec 😂. I think a good bit of the Caribbean spots in the states don’t compare to food back in the islands but people patron them because it’s a reminder of home for those who moved to the states.

[@TrinbagoVibes]

Lol, hadda compare so we don’t take our food for granted, but yeah it’s a reminder of home…still doh I expected them to be better

[@gailjackson5009]

Agreed, Trinidad food is expensive and of poor taste in US. Hope you had some Rest and Relaxation.

Yup and thank you Ms Jackson 🙏🏽😁

ROFL You got your money's worth of flour and salt. The Roti shops are maximizing profit by making thick barra or roti with less filling, and making it look like you are getting volume for the price. The first roti didn't look like it had much filling. The amount you spent on the four items paid for several bags of flour, which yielded a lot of barra and roti. Also, they are factoring in the overhead...rent and salaries. Next time you come to America, you could comparison shop grocery items.

[@TrinbagoVibes]

That’s a great plan, it would be interesting to see the comparisons

[@rawhenrnh]

To have good Trinidadian food, you must have it in T&T. I live in central Florida now and the food is embarrassing. Every roti shop I've been to is soo stingy with their sauce if you even get any. Bunch of dry doubles. I bought 25 doubles 2 weekends ago and told them we want everything in it. We got home and all the doubles dry like crix crackers. Not a drop of tamarind sauce, pepper sauce. And yes, it was $3 per doubles. US $75 in doubles and can't even get some pepper sauce. smh

[@TrinbagoVibes]

That’s rel sad, to buy so much doubles and they sticking with the sauce, smh… so far nothing can come close to home, but I heard Tabanka is good and I remembered trying a doubles at Trinciti roti shop in Liberty NY back in 17 and it was pretty good

[@pharezknights5467]

Not being harsh but America food has nothing compare to the Caribbean in flavour, i ate some stuff over there and its just bad, there say it taste good but there haven't tasted good yet, not even average, Caribbean people love ground seasoned food, not just salt, blackpepper and power

[@keithmecca13]

It still wouldn’t be the same. But you would have done a lot better in New York. Just saying. Enjoy your trip.

[@TrinbagoVibes]

One day I’ll doubles hop or check out the Caribbean spots in NY, lol
