    Big thank you to #visitTrinidad and Visit Tobago (www.visittobago.gov.tt/) for inviting me to Trinidad and Tobago and for making this trip happen! Guide to the things and food in this video:
    Breakfast with Carion - We’re beginning in Les Coteaux, Tobago, a small town in the mountains that’s known for preserving its tradition and cultural heritage. Carion and her family are preparing an amazing local breakfast of coconut bake, saltfish, and cocoa tea. Seeing the process and being able to hang out and eat was extremely memorable. Uncle’s singing and drumming was also a highlight.
    Chef Danielle - Next up on this Creole food tour in Tobago we met Chef Danielle, from Frontline Flavours who specializes in preserving authentic Creole cuisine of Tobago. She cooked a pot of curry fish, callaloo, and cornmeal. The food was outstanding, so fresh and so flavorful.
    Tom Tom’s - Tobago is also very well known for their sweets, and learned about a few of the local sweets including beni balls and coconut fudge - one of the local favorites.
    Seahorse Inn Restaurant (goo.gl/maps/FAh9obuceBh7WGiQ9) - Finally to wrap up this day for food we headed to Black Rock and ate at Seahorse Inn Restaurant, one of the well known restaurants.
    Sunday School - Buccoo, Tobago - Lastly, we headed to Sunday School for some live steel pan music!
    It was another outstanding and memorable day on the beautiful island of Tobago!

      We would soak the salt fish in cold water for a few hours and then boil it in water for the fish to soften then flake it like they did. Then cook it the way they did. However, our bake is fried and it gets fluffy and swells and that when it’s cooked.

      This is because Tobago was far less affected by the importation/immigration of other ethnicities (as was the case in Trinidad). As a result, Tobagonians retain very West African features and cultural derivatives (speech, food, dance, music, customs.)

    It sounds like your wife is truly enjoying your trip to TnT. I often hear her laughing in the background. I guess she feels at home. She can easily fit in there.

      They don't know good food. I had a get together and had all the neighbors come. Curry goat was one of the items. One of the neighbors is "Italian" American from NY. His wife lied to him and told him the goat was beef. He ate ALL of it. When someone asked him how it was he was like it's " aight" " it's ok". But he ate ALL of the "aight" curry goat. He didn't want to admit the food was good.

    I am St. Lucian 🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨 and I remember eating coconut bake as a child, my mom had a Trinidadian friend who taught her. We make bakes in St. Lucia without the coconut but everything else is the same. We are Caribbean and we are PROUD.

    I came for the food, but stayed for the people! The pure energy and good vibes of Tobagonians, (HEY AUNTIE😀) was spectacular. I smiled, laughed and dribbled throughout this video. Loved it! This was a great one Mark.
