Just following your journey in nyc. When last I was actively watching you were in Colombia. And now you walking around my hood in bedstuy. Recognized that stroll after the gym. Keep doing your thing. I’m sure to learn something about here through their eyes. We tend to live here and not take advantage of all the thing because we are stuck in our busy lives
😅a dem tingz a gwane ova yah , ibby in newyork stealing the lady heart ❤️ with that Jamaican cooking 🧑🍳💯🤷♂️…..#kartelvoice …stew peas will mek the room steam !!!😂(ohhh,im out!!!) 😂
I suggest you try Nickys restaurant Flatlands on 80th. The best curry goat so far, you can cut the meat with a plastic spoon. The curry gravy is not greasy. My Pops said there's a need place on the corner of Ralph and Foster Ave, said the cook real good.
wow how have I not seen you around the area hahahahaha big ups man love the content. also have u tried A&A DOUBLE SPOT YET ITS LIKE A COUPLE BLOCKS DOWN TRINIDAD DOUBLES
I need to try your stew peas recipe…I have a Jamaican man mi waan tie! 🤭🤣🤣 if the lovely lady said it tastes good…I know it’s good. I could tell on her face she was being genuine 😊
Funny thing I was just telling someone recently that u have lost it since u got with the other " person" because before that union I learnt so much from U on how to cook certain meals and would enjoy watching u doing what alllll adventure youtubers doing now , u were of the few that did river cooking and all back then and I sent droves of persons to subscribe, but u "lost it" glad u trying to find back Your roots bro
I had the same experience in the City. It’s hard to find the authentic flavor that you expect from a Jamaican restaurant. You can find them in D.C. and of course Florida as you already know. I would open a market with the freshest foods instead of a restaurant. It’s way too much competition when it comes to restaurants. Location, advertisement and demand is the key. You really need a nice little spot in a cut away from all the other competitors. There aren’t enough Jamaican, Caribbean in general and African markets. That would be something you should consider opening.
Honestly the food in Jamaica just taste fresher, cleaner, better, hands down. I’ve lived in NYC for over 25 years and yes there are places where the flavor comes close but it’s never going to taste the same as back home. You’ll be chasing the authenticity and can’t quite find it. Best thing you’re doing is cooking it yourself!
You should go to the Bronx for good Jamaican food Champion bakery white planes road The dumpling cove East 233rd street Bronx ny The original dumpling shop l baychester ave Bronx ny To name a few Also a few spots in the city like, Negrill village in Manhattan in west 3rd street Omar kitchen and rum bar in Manhattan client on street Peppas in Manhattan Stanton street
Thank you!!! I just came back from the Bronx, visited The original dumpling shop, I was too full to try the cove but ill go back. Also checked out Blue Cantina again. The rest on the list ill save. Thanks again
Its true!! I cannot remember where but my friend took me, to a Jamaican restaurant in Brooklyn. It was horrible. It's the same thing here in Canada they cannot cook. I don't really eat out like that anymore . I cook my own damn meal. I love stew peas with pig tail and salt beef with white rice, not rice and peas. A few Jamaican restaurant that's still holding the name Jamaican restaurants and the food taste good in Canada. Dem can't cook. I'm not a chef but I can cook because like you I know great food.
If your in the Bronx… try out my dads resturant called EATING TREE. It’s near the yankee stadium. Tell him Denika “ DenDen” sent you😉. Let me know if you go and I’ll have him prepare something for you.
I am in full agreement with you. Many of these Jamaican restaurants in New York wouldn’t last a day in Jamaica. They simply cannot cook. They put sugar and salt in everything 😧😧😧
If you want authentic home cooked Jamaican food you’re not going to get it from Simpsons. Thats more of an upscale Jamaican cuisine. Good Hope restaurant located on Flatbush and Ave J. Best stew peas. Also Golden Krust located on Church Ave 💯
Totally agree, the jamaican food is trash af! There is an amazing one here in Brooklyn. Silver Crust is the name right on Utica Ave between Clarkson and Winthrop. I heard there is another location somewhere but this is the one I'm vouching for cause dem nuh miss.
Was in Chicago last week and found out that the Jamaican restaurants there don't like to serve white rice, at least the 3 that I stop at .Now if a Jamaican restaurant say they don't serve white rice the trap question for them should be what you serve with stew peas ? I ask this question at the last one and was told WE DONT COOK STEW PEAS!!! Jesus Christ ! Never thought I'd hear that in my life . Lady let me know Jamaicans hardly visits is mostly Black Americans . Al 3 restaurant food was excellent.
@Jammin1288 Yes it's true that they cater to mostly Americans but that doesn't make the food not authentic . Of one of the restaurant I patronize the lady at the counter said I was the only Jamaican in there for a week. Ordered curry chicken white rice..We don't serve white rice I was told...Change order to jerk chicken rice and peas and I was served one of the best jerk chicken nicely plated seasoned good , fresh vegetables in separate plate and a slice of bread (Yankee dem spoil bad)
The shops are empty because the elder Jamaicans failed at Franchising. They did not understand Business… and allowed their greed to create a lack of trust from the US Market in terms of Quality Control & Food Safety. Golden Krust is the only successful Jamaican Franchise in the world. Florida has the best Jamaican food right now. NYC started using cheap ingredients.. rent is too high bro. There are a few hidden gems still. “Fisherman’s Cove” on Church Ave in Brooklyn has decent jerk chicken. “Rock Island and Grill” in Queens is Jamaica quality. Not familiar with The Bronx, but they should have some good spots there also.
Bro who is guiding you ? The Jamaicans are uptown! Waay upntown the North east section of the Bronx . From Gunhill rd to 241st going into Mt vernon (the number 2 train line. They call that little Jamaica 🇯🇲 . TONS OF Good jamaican food

Do you know how to salt your own pig tails? Nice if you can do a vlog on it please.🎉
I know how to but it's where to get whole pigtail that isn't already cured
@@SOAIVLOGS You'll have to video a butcher doing it. Takes a few pig tails. It didn't occur to me 🤦🏾♀️😂😂

Jamaican food in Chicago mostly caters to Black Americans which is why it’s not authentic. I hardly ever ate Jamaican food when I lived there.
