"Visiting one of the city's oldest Caribbean staples in Côte-des-Neiges—Caribbean Curry House (La Maison du Cari), in business since 1980—I tried a range of go-to dishes: rotis filled with beef, chicken, goat, or shrimp curry, and Trinidadian doubles (fried flatbreads stuffed with chana); a friendly reminder is that doubles aren't meant to be eaten like a burger or sandwich. I found the curries bright, given a hint of earthiness from ground peas in the roti dishes, and built on a heady mix of coriander, cumin, allspice and some spicy heat that keeps people coming back to this Victoria Avenue classic." - Tim Forster
