I can't just choose one thing! I would say fricassee of lambi (conch), acras, crab farci, gratin of christophines, plantains, rice & red beans.

I cook a mean plate of oxtails stew, myself, although I've never had them in the islands. Cool

Wait - when u turn veggie? It wasn't always so...and I know you aren't hindu. Luv de channa. And yuh know i cud lick up some curry & dahl pouri - is sweet fuh days. In moderation of course. Lil Anonymouse's mother used to kill me with curry: Curry goat, curry chicken, curry crab, curry shrimp, curry fish, curry mango...she curried damn near everything.

I spend too much in Toronto fuh Caribana. I forgot to add Canada to my calling plan and my gawd Mr. Verizon is loving me right now. :shaking head at cel phone bill:

Where you been? I been vegetarian virtually all my life. Maybe we hung out during my meddling with chicken, but that never stuck. No, not Hindu - I'm SDA.

Have some curry & dahlpouri right here in meh fridge. Razz Since you mother curried plenty, your moderation must be other people's excessive. Laughing Ah tort your family Bajan? Since when Bajan people love curry so?

How was Caribana? Never been myself. Poor you and that Verizon bill. You know Verizon has this thing where they give you a special phone to use internationally, and the charge isn't bad at all. They don't tell you that though. You have to go in and request it.

I think it was during your chicken days but yes I know you're SDA.

Not MY mother, the Da Boy's mother: she's jamaican, Indian family. For me curry was a delicacy - we had it every blue moon. But she? She would curry my corn flakes if I didn't watch it. My poor belly aches just remembering

Caribana nice - the whole city is involved and Canadians are more friendly in general so this lends to a good time. A couple friends and I rode up (yeah I know I know: we mad fuh true - 12 hours up, 18 hours back) and were like local celebrities. Not too often do you see bikes with Maryland tags. The rest of my boys either drove or flew. I rented a big house close to downtown and...well....you know how the song goes: What happens in T-Dot stays in T-Dot Laughing Laughing Laughing

You need to go one year.
