The meals were great, I was happy to get some nice polourie, glad I did not have to wait till I go back to Tdad. The bake and shark was boss, Kathy explained that although she tries to do it every other Saturday sometimes the grocery does not have shark. But it was well worth the wait to enjoy some nice fresh food. A cold homemade sorrel just finished all this good food. My family was so happy to enjoy good Trini food. Be back soon for sure. Great T&T food. Kathy was explaining to other customers who were not familiar with the food but came to buy based on recommendations.

The doubles feature a tender bara an channa with a balanced blend of spices,complemented by bright tamarind an well judged pepper sauce. Their roti is supple and wraps around richly flavored curries that are both hearty and aromatic. The pholourie arrives hot,golden and airy the ideal starter. A standout for authentic local flavor and quality execution.... Tip: For those who purchase just a reminder when we purchase doubles on d stand to go or pholourie fot that matter it comes hot but need i remind u once wrapped bagged an is transported to wherever its temperature obviously drops it would not be hot it may be warm depends on how long u have your food bagged an transported

I tried this place a few years ago at a Juneteenth celebration and always remembered their trini…read morepatties. When I walked out of my children's school this summer I saw the food truck and made my way there to order the trini patties. The owner gave me a sample of her freshly made juice. The flavor that day was a cantaloupe. It was so good that I asked her where I could find them regularly. The best way to know is to look at their Instagram page. The next day I went to the Oak Hill Plaza shopping center on Mechanicsville turnpike. I took the kids with me and we ordered the juice, and I learned they make different flavors based on what they have in stock. I requested several orders of the patties, their version of the seafood boil (which was because she gave samples while we waited in line), She also provided a sample of curry chicken, which I now know is just as good as everything else. If you're ever out and see this food truck, it definitely worth a try.

I got the shrimp and…read moregrits from La Bete food truck and the shrimp are fried , they taste fresh , the grits are thick which is ok but the kicker for me was the WEIRD gravy on top. It had stringy crab crab pieces I'm guessing and no taste. Left my stomach feeling weird. It was $24 dollars which would be a fair price if it tasted good. Loose that weird gravy and maybe add some more cheese and butter to the grits. Only reason it got a two because the shrimp are fried perfect .
