Rice and peas, plain rice, stued chicken, curried goat, salt fish and ackee and there wicked festivals, which are like a fried dumpling but sweet. The flavours that come out of the Caribbean, they seem to have got it spot on. Still miss mums cooking, but this can work. The staff are very friendly, so that always helps. I would have loved for them to have made and served some Caribbean drinks. Punches such as pineapple punch or peanut punch. I could go on for ages, but I can't spell em so I won't. On a level though, the food is great. At first I was a bit dubious because of the clean factor that go with these road food vans. Take my word, they are clean clean clean. They let me go up in the van and have a look, which I thought was wicked. Just showed that they had nothing to hide where cleanliness is concerned. If your looking for something quick and different on the move. Then this is it‼

Will be top of my list of local recommendations, take aways and home catering (have added their number to my mobile, was so fantastic). The depth of flavour of their lovingly-prepared jerk chicken, goat curry and fish curry (unlike you have ever tasted before - seriously moreish!) will seriously surprise newcomers. The sypmphony of flavours of the fish with chilli and scotch bonnet pepper sauce was SoooOOooo unique, asked to buy a batch of the sauce to take home!!! They really ought to bottle that sauce! 5 stars as a new local restaurant with the courage to try a new concept. Keep up the outstanding efforts!!! It was highly recommended to us through word of mouth. Absolutely worth a meal here!!!! It will be unlike anything you have experienced for quite some time. African passion on a plate.

You must try their jollof rice and jerk chicken! What really surprised us was the value for money. Because they accept 'Taste Card' (50% off) the 'Bill Shock' you normally get when a restaurant slaps the bill on the table was more like, 'I can't in good conscience pay that little!' Highly recommend .. A must before you leave Hastings!

The drinks are actually quite tasty and many are, of course, rum based. I had some of the drink specials and it was sugary but tasty. We had the lentil dhal and a Caribbean salad as a starter, both were delicious. For mains, I ordered the Guyanese Pepper Pot, which is a big, oily, spicy stew. It was tasty af, buuuut I would probably split it with someone in the future as it is rich. My husband got the Beanie Bowl which was also tasty. I think I preferred his as it was a bit lighter. Best move is order both and share.

Three of us went to dine at Turtle Bay, a caribbean style restaurant, on a Tuesday evening. The…read moreplace was very quiet, however the server was very attentive and helpful. I started with the pink lemonade, which is more than enough for two but was so delicious I managed to drink the whole lot on my own. We ordered three curries to share, goat, fish and vegetable squash, they were all distinct in flavour and very tasty. The meat in the goat curry was tender, whilst the fish was well marinaded and succulent. For dessert my recommendation would be to go with the rum cake every time, it's melt in your mouth good and the sauce is all kinds of amazing! If we weren't driving we would have definitely tried one or three of the cocktails as there was a great selection.
