TRINIDADIAN STREET FOOD Breakfast!! Doubles & Shrimp Pies in Orlando, Florida!!
🇹🇹 DESI VIBES: / desivibestx
🌎 MY TRAVEL/FOOD BLOG: davidsbeenhere.com/
While I was up in Orlando for a friend’s wedding, I knew I had to get some delicious Trinidadian food! Come with me as I have some authentic Trinidadian street food in Orlando, Florida!
I’d be heading to Desi Vibes, a Trini pop-up spot in a garage in town just for the weekend. I first fell in love with doubles-a Trinidadian street food staple-when I visited the Little Guyana neighborhood of NYC back in September of 2021.
👕 DAVID’S BEEN HERE MERCH: teespring.com/stores/davids-b...
I loved them so much that I booked a trip to Trinidad and Tobago to further explore the flavors of the islands in early 2022, and now I’m officially addicted!
Once I arrived, I met Kerrie, who was putting together a shrimp pie, and Stacy, who has a catering company. She also showed me some of their pepper sauce, tamarind sauce, chadon beni sauce, and more. I tried some of their pepper sauce, which is made from super hot scorpion peppers!
They also had cucumbers, aloo, and habaneros. They roast the habaneros and blend them to make a sauce. Desi Vibes is based in Houston, TX, out of Kerrie’s home. You can contact her through DM on Instagram to place orders.
She added the roasted habaneros, some lime juice, garlic cloves, and culantro in a blender and blended it up. It smelled incredibly spicy! Then, she fried up some pholourie, which are savory fritters. They’re like Trini beignets!
Then, I watched the put soe doubles together by taking two baras and top them with chana, tamarind sauce, chadon beni, cucumber, and chili sauce. They also made an aloo pie.
I couldn’t wait to eat! My mouth was watering as she made my aloo pie and plated my doubles and pholourie.
I sat at a table with a man named Bill and showed him how to eat doubles. He said it was spicy! It definitely had a kick and was so savory and flavorful! The pepper in it was perfect!
Next was the jerk pork and jerk chicken, which melted in my mouth. The pork was nice and fatty, and the chicken melted in my mouth. It was so good!
Then, I jumped on the pholouries, which they had doused in the different sauces. They were soft and airy, and slightly crispy.
Next, I jumped on the shrimp pie. I could taste the potatoes a little bit. The shrimp curry inside was fantastic. It’s super filling and full of flavor!
The Stag beer was a nice lager. Then, I met Stacy’s cousin, Sharon, who had just ordered some doubles. They have her stamp of approval-they’re tasty and authentic!
Then, Sharon fed me some of her doubles. It was so good, and spicy. The bara was amazing, but I was so full. I loved the ladies here! They were all so friendly. They serve until they run out!

David I thoroughly enjoyed this video. The ladies were real and really nice and friendly in true Trinidad style. Couldn't get over the fact that you were explaining to the guy how to eat the doubles. Now we know for sure that you are a Trini. You adapted very well to our culture and food. The only thing you didn't do was to lick the paper like you did at the airport before leaving Trinidad and David Wears declared you a true Trini. Everything looked so scrumptious and delicious that my mouth was watering with every bite. Happy to see that you are promoting Trini foods. Now I am waiting to see the Trini masks on the wall in your new office. Keep up the good work and here's wishing you God's speed and blessings in your travels. 🙏🛫✈️🛬🇹🇹🇨🇦

@@Davidsbeenhere imagine that eh. You have graduated to Trini -hood. Keep the videos coming. It's also amazing to hear how many languages you understand because I love foreign languages and I try to figure out what country it's from although I understand a little French and Spanish (peu et poco).😄😄😄. P.S: besides the food that are showcased, the history you give is very educational as well since some people are seeing it through your eyes and videos. So keep it up. I also just subscribed to Tal's channel and he is a very interesting guy. Bless you and your family. Happy 4th of July.🇹🇹🇨🇦 . We just celebrated Canada Day on July 1.
The Trini ladies are super friendly as most Trinis are, roasted peppers are the best. David like that you love Trinidad, as always thanks, stay safe an wish you and your family everything good.

David might as well be a full blown trini at this point.. giving tips on how to eat doubles haha
David..... you will LOVE Trini Christmas. You must return lol 🇹🇹 You'll need to stay for Christmas straight till New Years to have the best experience.
David yoooo my brother, you're a doubles specialist...🖒...love the way you showed the guy how to eat the doubles like a true true Trini...💯😁
David, from Huntington Beach, near Los Angeles, and a pure Trini. I enjoy your videos so much that I want to go back home just to eat roti and doubles. One suggestion, no two. You should say your name a little slower because it is very important for your viewers to know who you are. That is your Icon. Next, pronounce barrah like in English without rolling the "r". It sounds strange because in T & T, they do not roll the "r". Good job and I wish you great success, especially since I also lived in Caracas for 35 years.
GREAT VIBES DAVID IM TRNI AND I DID ENJOY YOUR VIDEO THANKS FOR PROMOTING OUR TRINBAGONIAN STREET FOOD THOSE LADIES ARE DOING A FANTASTIC JOB LIKE BILL SAID AMAZING❤💕🙏

Since when drinking stag and eating doubles is a thing we do in Trinidad? Maybe a solo, cokes or apple j. Even David didn't think that was a good mix.
David nah Man U more more Trini than me boy nah I going and get my doubles in the morning hot in the spot thank u thank u u have made us so proud of our country people needed to know about our country and food and u have and is doing a fantastic job thank u so much

I’m so hungry right now. Unfortunately I live on the West (wrong) coast so I guess I’ll have to make my own. Thank you David for this videos and all the others you’ve shared highlighting T&T and it’s fantastic foods and people👍🏽
If she added the Chicken the shrimp or the pork to the doubles its something we call gourmet Doubles. its a little different from the traditional vegan doubles.
David need to buy a property in Trinidad! 🤣🤣

David, I’ve been wanting to check out any place that you have a visit. I was just in Orlando for a week with my family and got back two days ago. So wish I would’ve saw this before then. Looks amazing. Can’t wait for you to come to Fort Myers where I live. Thanks for sharing🙏🏽

You must love doubles Bro, keep up the vids I look forward to them everyday lol.
I just watched this video again to see if I missed anything the first time. I didn't realize that the guy ordered the aloo pie with the shrimp in it on your recommendation. Nice job. Still has my mouth drooling for Trini delicacies - roti, doubles pholourie etc. Isn't it amazing that any food looks so delicious when you see other people eating and enjoying it.🇹🇹🇨🇦
Everything looked AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS! 😋😋😋😋😋 Especially the Shrimp Pie! Safe Journey! CHOLULA!!!
Ok alyuh he gone clear LOL he want Ah STAG🤣👍
