Trinindad's street food abounds with Indian names like sahina, aloo pie and baghani. Trinny's, as Trinidadians call themselves, are born nibblers. Eating on the street is a way of life, and at times it seems as though everyone is munching away on a snack or sipping from a coconut, or lined up awaiting the next tasty tidbit. Chef Debra Sardinha-Metivier gives us a crash course in Trinidadian street food 101.
Everything looks so yumm 🤤 I wish I could travel to this beautiful country!! Love from India 🇮🇳

I'm craving that Trini food! I left the Trinidad in 1973. Oh, I loved seeing the video. It makes me drool wish they had a place like this in Sacramento, California.
I would recommend trying doubles from a guy named Brandon by the Arima market
My home country!!! Can't wait to go back home in 2023! Post COVID!! Trini here I come!!
Trinidadian food tastes good.
just watching this making me hungry
I want to be there now
Real Trini just watching this make me feel fuh doubles wii
Yeah boi I could eat a pie and some doubles yes
When I went to Trinidad I ate like 10 doubles lol
Jejeje i from Colombia ehh and i like the food u country ehh !! Amazing
That is so true Trini's know how to season food. My mom use to season food so good.
Beautiful how it's Indian influenced. Everything looks delicious!
We need to have a course in Trinidad for foreigners - "How to eat a doubles" lol
We needed ah tru trini to do this interview man,, she not ready
My beautiful beautiful Trinidad!

Shanice 🔥❤️🇹🇹
Hell Is Not Sweet Bro
Na Guyanese them people will make rock taste good
Ugh I just got back from Trinidad and I ate here it was amazing !!!
Wow you guys and we Indians have a lot in common.
They’re 30 to 40% Indian heritage
Similar yet very distinct differences
That is locally renowned chef Debra Sardinha-Metivier. And she not trying to sound like a yankee, that is the way the woman does talk, she dealing with international people all the time. Gorsh man.
EPIC FAIL WITH SHE
She sounds very Trinidadian to me.
Thank you. Some Trinis are educated and eloquent. She speaks as Wendy Fitzwilliam would.
alieninthecaribbean correct
Sometime we take this "we doh catah" thing too far. You not going to lose your Trini authenticity by speaking proper English when dealing with people from other parts of the world. Sometimes you have to compromise and meet the world half-way in order to be understood and not be considered a ignorant person. Even Sprangalang tones it down (and he is an old Naps boy so he very eloquent) or explains the jargon when dealing with foreign people. Being understood is more important than, "keeping it real". If you not understood you don't COUNT, what you say doesn't COUNT.
They already looking at our dark skin and Caribbean nationality and assuming we uneducated, it's good to shock them with some Queen's English sometimes, which when we master it, plus add our little unique inflection and colorful turn of phrase is quite an impressive thing to hear. We speak it better than even the Americans or British do.
The Indian influence in the food is very distinct. Even the names like chana (chick pea) and baingan (egg plant) are so similar.
About half the population is Indian, descendants of indentured laborers
WTZF, the cooked tarro leaf with ochroes is calalloo. Saheena is the tarro leaf steamed and rolled in split pea powder rolled and fried. This woman gives misinformation.
The leaf is also callaloo
yum. thanks now I'm hungry. But I need to go there to get the good stuff. Looks Great,
I love Trini flavors. thank you T n T.
I love being a dayum trini!!♥
Tabanka in North Lauderdale, FL has some of the best dobles and Aloo Pie you can imagine.
Some of the best over there...nothing compared to home
Beautiful Dougla representing TT's culinary flavors
Debe South Trinidad I truly enjoy eating all the delights there. Ooh soo yummy......!
looks so good now im hungry too
I’m soooo vex right now after seeing all that good food 🤤 I miss home so much I need a sea bath 👹
Nice video tho!!✊🏾
I will pay a visit to the country soon.
These so-called food experts can't eat anything & they don't know anything about taste.
Yes man
Delicious
After marrying a trini woman I got fat...🤣🤣..I love the food...all of my American family and friends love my wife’s cooking
The "callaloo" or the dasheen Bush?
my favourite place i miss here
Debra is my cousin and she is the best chef I know.
Love the roti and potates classic
Mango seems to be very popular here.
am not use to doubles, but i do know the alu pai etc, but why am i hungry now for these snacks, am so mouth watering
I want to try some doubles. My stepmother was Trini (rip) married to a Jamaican. I'm gonna ask my step-cousin to make me some.
Looks like a remix version of Indian street foods 😋
Its very different. The nation is very mixed with every race you can think of. Each food has touches of influences from the other ethnic groups
Look and they taste wonderful 😁😁😁😁😁😁🇬🇩🇹🇹
I came here for the doubles.
Me too🤪🤪👍👍🇹🇹
Fantastic
We is de Trinis na man🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹
I'm just glad y'all chose the best doubles stand 😂👌🏽
doubles! yum!
Yes yum me and u
Best spot in debe to eat the green shad
Who made that doubles? I never see a flying saucer thick barra like that!
😀
it more like a fry bake
d2pans
d2pans Yea kinda amateur-ish ;)I don't think this is indians cooking this.
Kee Zee hymc thas in debe all d shops dey indian making it and different shops have differnt size of barar
show the man how the eat the doubles nah...he might take 15 mins to eat one lo
lol she was fighting so hard to go in there and show him herself! i think that was her favorite one out of all. she looked like her mouth was watering.
Let me try it.
I love the way they say chana😆👍
That's what we talking bout...big up to Trinidad and Tobago.
noting like T&T food, really miss home.
this is chola bhatura in India
& it looks really good, like in india
tarun sharma , welcome, we are a mixed peoples, all different heritage, come visit.
Which one aloo pie doubles Saheena which one ?
I'm hungry now yummy
Omg same as in Suriname .Only delicious food .Love it
R M because the Indians in Trinidad & Suriname hailed from Bihar & Uttar Pradesh in the 1800’s.
🙏 I'm from both surinam and Trinidad lol mom is trini and dad is suri...when it comes to Indian food my siblings and parents they become Indians lol I live in Trinidad when I go to surinam its all trini food and spices it take there and when I'm coming back it's all javaans food and spices lol
only the bakes left and we send the videos. good day brothers and sisters.
but I know growin up the official breakfast is saltfish and fry bake, or baighan and roast bake, or even fry bake and tomato choka.
that may be then but the average trini now looks for anything fast and easy to handle so there is a variety of things which can be purchased like you said from roast bake, fry bake and sada with shark, saltfish, alloo, baighan and many other fillings to the doubles, alloo pies sahina ect. This is now what most person seek to purchase as street food but they are just the basics. There are a lot more trini street foods that can be added to the list. As we say here variety is the spice of life BTW we love love all the variety of old and new condiments which can vary from location to location.
Or fry aloo and roti
I just make some fry bake yesterday!
I think she explained it well
This looks like Hasanali"s in Debe I am home sick now even though it has not been a month I was there great food for sure
markanddanielsmom po
The absolute best food in Trinidad and Tobago without question is Buss Up Shut!
Yummy!
My oh my this tasting session is great me mouth is watering forgot. Yes.
doubles most be here is we thing I love Trinidad
It’s not kalaloo
Wonder if they have doubles and aloo pie in India - just asking , lol.
very interesting video!!!!
The real Bhaigini is with split peas flour over bhaigan ( aubergine). Not an aloo pie filled w bhaigan. There's a white truck n the middle of the Southern Main Road, Curepe on weekends. Their Saheena and Bhaigini are A+
How dat doubles looking so sad?
The vendor stall where they got the doubles from (The Green Shed) isn't really known for their doubles. They seem to specialize more in saheena, baiganee, and aloo pie. Their doubles are far from their best dish.
Debe doubles is the worst....ntm really poor customer service....I don't buy anything there
Try the bake and shark best in de Caribbean
Of course Trini roti and there doubles does beat down good especially there curry 💯
Show d man how to eat the bloody doubles nah gyal
Like she is not ah trini
She dont know how either
Agree
Trini food and women are the best:)
You sure right about that...so many races living peacefully...it is by far the most cosmopolitian caribbean nation
DAH SAHEENA LOOKING GOOD DOH
Does anyone know the name of that Indian song playing in the background at around 4:47? I've heard it before but never knew its name, it's probably the only Indian song I like that I've heard.
Export management company?
Yes. I know all about street food. Well done. 😁
TNT awesome country , great street food however as you venture into interior on this country , the accent becomes much much harder to understand .
Too much inaccurate information in this video. The woman knew nothing about any of food items.
Good morning 🌞 hello.... Check out....KW One stop shop at the corner of O'Donahue street Covigne Road Diego Martin... Very good tasty delicious 😋 fries 🍟 burgers 🍔🍟
Good
i find dat everybody doubles does taste different some does taste like plain dhal and some does just taste like doubles ok so idk if its just me but yall ever say to yourself that ''these doubles don't taste like how they used to taste''
i saw Rochelle is there...
I could taste dat Alloo pie straight thru the computer screen !
He ain't wanna eat that food..piecing off lil meaninless tidbits....
Green shed is the best!!
my home town down debe..lol
Trinidad street food is best accompanied with hot sweet Trinidad coffee.
if you're vegetarian Trinidad is the place to live
Wha you talking bout girl. If you love yuh belly, Trinidad is d place to live
well said
doubles
in India we call then, chola bhatura
now we veggies indians can go to Caribbean
thanks for video
There are many Indian nationals living here...and they are amazed at our foods and the many ethnic groups living here as one
Looks bomb I would eat that in 1 second.
That man look like he cannot handle the heat 😁
👍🏼👌🏻
mmmmmmmm sweet T&T
This is the most inaccurate review ever. For starters it look like this girl dont know how any of these things are actually made..sahina is made with baji not callaloo..the pies are NOT stuffed afterwards with the filling.. it is fried with the potatoe or egg plants inside of it.. and lastly, SWEETSAUCE IS NOT FOR DOUBLES. Thank you.
A lot of people do use dasheen bush and she referred to filling as Channa and sauces. She did mention the potato and melongene being cooked with the fritter.
Bless you
Nah man...he need help with dat doubles😂🤣
If you get up too late, you would miss the doubles as they sell out!
le doy like porque la señora esta guapetona y muy educada
