Best Haitian Restaurants Around Boston | Eater Boston

"Part restaurant and part grocery store, Toutwèl offers a glimpse of Haiti, where you can find staples like djon djon, epis, and chokola, essential ingredients in Haitian kitchens. At the Mattapan gem, you’ll discover mayi moulen, a cornmeal porridge breakfast staple. You can’t leave without diving into their fritay; it’s one of the best you can find in Boston. That platter packs together fried breadfruit, accra (a malanga fritter), griot (pork marinated in sour orange juice), marinade (an herb-infused fried dough) and it is finished with a dousing of spicy pikliz. Pair it with an order of ji manyòk, a cold creamy smoothie made of blended yucca, star anise, cinnamon, Haitian vanilla, almond extract, and evaporated milk." - Ashia Aubourg
