    TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO - One of the favorite food pastimes in Trinidad is to go to the river and have what’s called a “river lime,” where you hang out with friends and family, cook some delicious food, and enjoy nature all at the same time. Today we’re heading to Caura River, where Kev is going to cook up some delicious curry goat!
    Big thank you to #visitTrinidad for inviting me to Trinidad and Tobago and for making this trip happen! Guide to the things and food in this video: visittrinidad.tt/things-to-do...

    We drove out to Caura River to first have our river lime. Kev was already busy in the setup tent kitchen along the riverside. On the menu, the main event was the Trinidadian curry goat, but we also had chana and potatoes, and curry duck. What I love so much about the Trinidad and Tobago curries are the layers of flavor - from the curry powder to the onions and garlic, to all the green seasoning like shadow beni and green onions and thyme. The recipes are amazing. We had an amazing feast, and I especially loved the curry goat and curry duck!
    Nanan's Caroni Bird Sanctuary Tours - Next in the afternoon we headed out to Nanan's Caroni Bird Sanctuary Tours for a boat tour and dinner at the amazing bird sanctuary, where scarlet ibis roost for. It was an amazing experience, and even better because we had dinner on the boat!
    And that completes another amazing day of food and sightseeing in Trinidad, food and nature at its best!

    The key to Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹 cuisine is that green seasoning. Every Trinidad 🇹🇹 dish starts with green seasoning. Chief seasoning is the best. 🇹🇹 West Indian cuisine is the best in all of the Caribbean. Trinidad 🇹🇹 Lime is a family must. Don’t forget about the spirit rum. Mark has even started talking like a Trinidadian. Kevin is an awesome cook. Kevin put out a cooking book for us that live abroad. Mark you have to try curry cascadura, iguana and Stewed Agouti. Mark thank you for displaying my heritage for everyone in such a wonderful manner. Our people are so inviting, social, hospitable and extremely loving. You have to experience carnival, football or cricket match Trinidad 🇹🇹 style. World Cup starts this weekend. The entire country will shut down for the greatest sporting spectacle.

Guyanese and trini Indians have held tight to their East Indian roots. They never let the British take that from them.
