So, that being said, it was a good sign when I asked if the brisket was presauced, and the man working the stand looked at me like I was a crazy person and said of course not. I ordered the brisket and some mashed potatoes. The brisket was delicious and moist, with a nice rub. It was a little salty, but I'll let it slide. The mashed potatoes also had great flavor. It comes with a big container of sauce, I got honey mustard, which was great, but I didn't use much of it, as it wasn't needed.

There were 6 other people at the bar, a couple in the corner & a table if 6 behind me. The manager came out to talk to the couple in the corner about their experience, which is not a great sign, but we'll see. He saw that I was writing a review & never went back in the kitchen after that, unless it was for a brief moment. He involved himself in pouring drinks & barely left my side. He made small talk & I learned that he had been open for 4 years. It was difficult for me to eat, take pictures of the food or write the review with his constant engaging presence. He was pleasant & made sure to pick up the bartenders slack. For instance, a coaster under the drinks, offering me a glass, or putting down a placemats under the food or supplying silverware, none of which she did. I ordered a Modelo, but when she grabbed it out of the cooler, i saw that it was Especial not Negra, so i asked do you have the dark? She said no & w/ out hesitation opened it, not giving me a chance to ask for something different. Not a big deal, but she seemed indifferent & with no affect. None of this is a deal breaker, just an observation. The food, that was a deal breaker. I ordered the (smoked BBQ sandwich) & opted for the brisket. It came with a side & I chose onion rings. They were pre-salted, almost too much, but they were good. No complaints there. The sandwich however was impossible to eat. The meat was very tough & stringy. It was impossible to tear, bite or cut. The roll was soft, untoasted & soggy, causing it to fall apart making a mess. I gave up, turning to fork & knife to cut what resembled a tangled bunch of hair in both in taste & texture. There was something on the meat, but it was more of a marinade than BBQ as we know it. The same goes for the cheese. I did not see any caramelized onions, but there were two jalapeños. The owner asked how the meal was & I said eh. He said only ok? so I elaborated. He said he would relay the information to the kitchen & I thanked him. After that he never came back into the dining area until after I had left. I do feel bad writing this review because he was so overly involved in my experience & he was a nice gentleman that I would like to succeed, but I do not think I would want to return there after my experience with that sandwich, especially for the price. The meal alone was bad enough. Maybe a change in staff would help, unless they were related. I felt bad writing this review because the owner made it a point to be overly engaging with me once he saw that i was writing a review, but the better way to handle things is to make sure that you guest's experience is top notch. I felt like he tried to keep me engaged, so i wouldnt be rough on him, but it is supposed to be about the customers experience, not my empathy for the friendly owner. I wish him the best of luck.

Shout out to Smoke's owner Rich who dreamed up the Dumpling/Prosecco Experience for a dozen regulars and social media followers. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted by Rich and a small split of Maschio Prosecco. After all the participants arrived, Rich's wife Claire and Claire's mom (the star of the show) walked us through the process of making homemade dumplings. Claire and her mom made the simple dough using just two ingredients -water and all-purpose flour. We watched our instructors mix the dough, stretch and roll into a thin rope, snap it off into small chunks, squish it into a disk, use a mini-rolling pin to flatten it out into a small circle, fill it from a pre-made bowl of Ground Beef and Cabbage, then fold and pinch it into shape. Then our dozen attendees tried their hand at replicating all of those steps. Our mother and daughter team's dumplings looked as though they came off a 3D printer- just perfect and uniform. Mine looked like rejected factory seconds. The mother didn't speak English, but I had a blast watching and copying her little tricks on folding in the corners and squeezing the wrappers together. Once the dumplings were folded and squeezed together, they went into a pot of water, and we all enjoyed them before dinner. Dinner was a real pleasure. I loved the vibe at Smoke. If you want to cool it hip and chic I won't argue. I loved all the paintings on the wall. There is a large painting of a ghostly looking, red-lipped female blowing out a puff of smoke. I told Rich what a cool painting it was, and he modestly said he had painted it. So not only is Rich a fun and engaging personality, and a talented painter, but the food at his restaurant is great. Our friend ordered a $15 Spicy Smoked Philly Cheesesteak with American Cheese, Peppers, Onions on a Grinder Roll with fries. I sampled a small slice, and it was terrific, and yeah -it was spicy. My wife ordered a $11 Shrimp and Roasted Corn Bisque served with pita chips, She loved it. I ordered a $10 Smoked Beef Brisket Chili served with tortilla chips. It was a big portion, full of flavorful chunks of beef, and packed just enough heat to make it perfect to my taste. Smoke offers a Sunday Brunch from 11-3 and a Happy Hour Mon-Sat 4pm-7pm. Their pricing is excellent, the vibe is super fun, the food is delicious, and the service from Rich and his staff is excellent. What a fun evening!

Weather was perfect and there was plenty of space for us; they told me that Thursday lunchtime was the best for a group. Most of us sat at one of the round booths with two eating outside. Most purchased their lunches from Small State Provisions with the Jambon Beurre the most ordered. Others inside had the Salmon Toast or Spicy Roast Beef. Outsiders ordered from Twin Beaks and had the Caesar Salad Fried Chicken Wrap. Everyone enjoyed what they had and all commented on the size of offerings and great price level. Cafē Pausa served most drink orders. They were amazed at the service and truly astounded that there was free water! Many commented they when they had family visitors at the retirement community they would ask to be taken there for lunch again. A very successful day which will be put on our schedule to come back as a group in some months to come. They all felt very welcome which is not always the reaction to a group of elders coming for a lunch date. PS: I brought back a chocolate chip cookie again as they are delectable and also got a Charcuterie Box to go which will be my meal tomorrow.

Service is a bit slower than some other West Indian places I've been to where they have all of the food cooked already and they just scoop it in as you order. My order took about 10-15 minutes with 1 person who has ordered ahead of me. He had about 3 orders. I suspect there is some fresh cooking done but I didn't watch too closely, as more customers were filling in. It's really a tiny hole in the wall with only 3 or 4 pizzeria style booths to sit in. There's about 3-4 parking spots and it's on a busy road. There's an ATM machine inside and 2 drink refrigerators. Behind the plexiglass partition, you can find the dessert du jour (today was 2 layer carrot cake Andy's chocolate cake) and the menu board. There aren't any prices on the menu any more. Probably having to constantly increase the price due to inflation. I can tell you that the large curry goat dinner was $16 and the large jerk chicken dinner was $15. Veggie Tarry juice drinks were $5 each. The glass bottle sodas were $2.50 and the Jamaican Beef Patties were $2.50. The two dinners came with rice and beans with tons of sauce on top, 2 pieces of fried sweet plantain, and a scoop of shredded veggies. Mostly cabbage in there. The food was enough for 5 meals. They really jam in the food in there. You can't fit anything else. The Jamaican Beef Patties looked too perfect to be homemade. They look exactly like the ones you get frozen from Tower Isle or Golden Krust. So at first I was disappointed that I was (possibly) getting a mass produced Beef patty. But I ate them for breakfast and OMG. Do not skip out on these! They quickly became my absolute favorite Beef patties ever. The filling wasn't as loose and greasy as the store bought ones. And not as much breadcrumb filler. The crust was heavenly perfect. The flakiness and the tender bite was scrumptious. Looking at the Yelp photos I see some all white meat chicken options and ribs!! What?! What to do?!?? Also if you're a Trini looking for hot pepper sauce- nothing to see here. All they have are hot sauce packets. The sauce inside is nothing hotter than Tabasco. And similar consistency. Please God, Bless Carl and his family and kitchen staff. I wish this place was closer to me. Best $50 spent on a meal in a long time!!
