My son said to him, your parents have come from Trinidad to eat this kind of food, you can't buy this in Canada, I am so happy to see you enjoying the most of the long life living people.

Trinidad is a lot bigger than 36miles. Approx 5000sq km.

Big up Trinidad people from Jamaica Kojak said that.👊✋💪

I am enjoying these videos ,as a Trini It is uplifting to see how our food can make someone so happy . Mr Wiens has really exposed our food to the world . I remember seeing his videos on Jamaican food .I really enjoyed the comments of people from Bengal India,Senegal Africa,Mauritius and so many other countries .Trinidad is really a melting pot .our green seasonings and hot peppers

So true

As a fellow Trinidadian I really like what you're doing exploring and showcasing our local foods and what our country has to offer .🥺

Oh I’m from there Maracas Bay Baked n Shark is a must try I’ve been there and had Bake n Shark with all the toppings I could add and it stil tasted great love it ! Thanks for this video Mark! 🇹🇹🇨🇦 🥰

No one can replicate Trini spices, composition and texture combinations. They made Indian food lighter, tastier and better. Plus they have Chinese and African influence. How can you beat that combination? I find whenever there is an Indian, Chinese and African fusion in food, it tastes insane. Jamaican, Malaysian, Peri Peri Mozambique are examples. It's the best food in the world when those 3 cultures collab.

Can you elaborate because this comment is iffy when you look at the Food history of Trinidad? For one, If you're basing Indian food off the piss poor Indian restaurants locally, you're being disingenuous. Local Indo-Trinidadian food might win on Nostaligia though. Plus, taste is subjective. And it is lighter as you said. But the whole reason why it's lighter is due to the lack of ingredients available to the Indians to make their dishes when they came to Trinidad. They had curry powder provided by the British and that was more or less it. This powder was created by Indian merchants to trade with the British. This is likely why there is less sauce in curry chicken and why curry chicken is a different dish from Chicken Curry. Considering the fact that Trini spices is heavily based on what was coming out of Asia and being spread by the Europeans as well as what was being cultivated locally by the Indigenous people, I'd say it can be more or less replicated. Composition and texture is debatable. Also, a lot of your examples for insanely tasty cuisines are based off predominately Native, Indian, Chinese, Middle Eastern flavors and spices. Southeast Asian countries basically combine Chinese cooking techniques with Indian spices. Africa Bird eye chillies come from America and Peri Peri seasoning was likely created by the Portuguese. That part is a hot topic though. The Africans contributed certain cooking techniques with the most notable one being caramelizing with brown sugar. Stewed meat and Trinidadian Pelau uses these techniques. I will admit that I personally think that using sugar to caramelize meat etc is something black, possibly creole Caribbean people came up with. I've watched a lot of African people cook but I have never seen this technique. I've never seen Indians or Chinese use it either. I feel like we really leave out indigenous people and their contributions to the world cuisine and especially Caribbean Cuisine. We have banger food. You're right about that. Just wanted to clarify some things based on your comment.

​@@imacarguy4065 Bro, I'm not an expert, don't take what I said too seriously. It's roughly correct.

Oh mama I am absolutely drooling over that bake and shark and the potato pie with shrimp! They look incredible, and simple in the best way. And the pepper, garlic, tamarind, and cilantro sauces... C’mon now... unfair!

The pineapple is my fave part since it balances it all out. Fried bake is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside with a buttery and slightly sweet taste, the shark is salty and juicy and well seasoned, the veggies in the toppings add a fresh crispness, but the pine (and tamarind sauce) is where it's at. Not everyone can make it well, but when you get a tasty bake and shark your beach day is 10x better.

Best Trini food documentary episode ever. So glad it showcased our cocoa. And DR Roast !!! Hes the best. Great job Mark and our trini foodie peeps. Amazing.

bake and shark is the best fish sandwich period! I will travel to TNT again just for one more bite.

I cannot describe how much I love these videos Mark! I wasn't into food videos, but lately I adore them and when I travel I feel like trying all sorts! Wonderful video, so excited to watch! Not long ago I dreamt that i was in Trinidad, I wish I could go there! xx

Just been there yesterday. It's amazing good food, enjoyed it so much. I come to Trinidad since 10years,always 3 months in winter. Mark is so right, that he ❤️Trini food.

Loved that you got to meet up with Carl and got to try the Dhalaloo, Buccaneer Chicken plus the Trinitario Cocoa & Chocolates!

Its so amazing to see that different food bloggers come and have a totally different creative view on sweet sweet TnT. Mark you and you're beautiful wife did an outstanding job showing beautiful Trinidad and Tobago. Thank you Sir I trust that you'll visit us back again soon. Next year God's willing is the mother of all carnivals it will be epic. ❤🇹🇹.

This is such an excellent series on Trinidad. Its even cool for Trinidadians to see because I didn't know about some of these places either. You are doing such a great job. It's a variety, it's knowledge. It's everything. Great job.

lets admire the clean surroundings from the caribbean.. we rarely get food poisoning or such...our hygiene is always admirable.

I love these videos of the food in my country. Makes me feel proud of my land. I love marks expressions when he tastes food. “Oh wow!”

I remember when Antony Bourdain went. Rest his soul. But man this guy mark did this one justice. He went the real real way.. gif bless mark for going down a patch and showing the real vendors that make the roots.

All time favourite KZreadr! It started following Mark ar around 4.5 Mill. subscribers. To see him at 9.37 is so amazing! What i really appreciate is htat he never changed anything. You can watch him 6 years ago and you won't find a different Mark. There are a lot of very famous KZreadr these days, but i think Mark is one of the very few that actually deserves everything he got.

that Brasso Seco plate is really special; love to all the indigenous TnT population Cocoa and coffee often grow side by side (that's what i observed when visited a few plantations) and the processing of both is both similar (picked ripe (wet) and left out in the sun to dry for few weeks and then roasted and ground)
