"Some of the best Caribbean food found off-island is here, in New York City, thanks to a thriving diaspora. You’ve got patties and doubles and bakes, but a roti—stuffed with curried goat, beef, or oxtail—is the calling card at Crown Heights favorite Trinidad Golden Place. The soft roti just barely holds its own under the weight of the curried meat that is tucked inside, and sure, you may need to be prepared to work around bones in the goat version (which, in my opinion, is the best), but few dishes are as craveable as this." - Kat Chen
