  • Winston Miranda is the chef behind Saraba, the only Garifuna food truck in Los Angeles, and one of the only Garifuna restaurants in all of the US. Winston’s passion and pride lies in the cuisine of the Garifuna people, the descendants of Africans and Arawaks originally from the Caribbean island of St. Vincent. The Garifunas were exiled to the Honduran coast in the eighteenth century and many later settled in Belize. Winston serves curried chicken, oxtail, fried fish, hudut, plantains and more. A former pro soccer player, Winston devoted his later years to the culinary arts and hopes that his daughter will one day have the same passion he has for making Garifuna food.

      I remember years ago I took my ex to a fancy resteraunt for her birthday. Costed like $60 a plate so with drinks tips tax etc I paid a little over $200. Never been so disappointed in the value to cost of a meal in my life. The main course looked like an appetizer. They seemed to put more effort in making the meal look pretty than tasty. Never again. Some of the best meals I've ever had came from little hole in the walls and food trucks.

      @@ariefraiser140 I’ve been to some really incredible fine dining restaurants; these places deserve their reputation and prices. I still remember the food I ate 25 years ago in one such place. I’ve never had better. And I was a nobody - obviously young and someone who saved up for a long time just to dine there. We were still treated with respect and given as much attention that the US Senator across the room received. I’ve also eaten at some pretty sketchy food trucks and stalls; some amazing, some passed off frozen chicken nuggets and clam strips as “cuisine”. Moral is, you’ll find good and bad at every level of the restaurant industry. It’s a shame to disparage a whole category of restaurants because you had a mediocre meal in single one. But to each their own; there’s no right or wrong answer.

    The Atlantic coast of Central America have more in common with Caribbean countries than with their country's mainland culture due to little to no road infrastructure, as is the case with Nicaragua, which is why they've been able to preserve their culture very well.
