Authentic West Indian roti, doubles, and house-made hot sauce
"Roti, a dish that originated in the West Indies (specifically in Trinidad), consists of curried stew served with or wrapped by a flatbread that is similar in constitution and taste to the kind you’d find on the Indian subcontinent. Order the goat roti, and get doubles, too, a dish that sandwiches sweet and spicy chickpeas between two delicately fried pieces of dough. Insider tip: While there are several fine roti shops in Boston, the hot sauce at Singh’s pushes this Dorchester Avenue spot ahead of the competition." - Erika Adams
"Get a hearty taste of Trinidad with roti stuffed full of meats and sides, and don’t miss the hot sauce. Also a must: the doubles, pictured here. Singh’s also carries a variety of Caribbean soft drinks and juices, from soursop to sea moss to peanut punch, as well as desserts, such as tamarind balls and coconut rolls." - Rachel Leah Blumenthal
"Singh’s Roti Shop in Everett Square is a tiny restaurant, but its styrofoam plates of roti are some of the biggest dishes we’ve ever had. You could use this thing for a workout if you lost your kettlebell, and it’s so good that, even after eating its leftovers for three consecutive meals, you won’t get sick of it." - dan secatore
"I noticed Singh’s Roti Shop quietly moved from its spot at 692 Columbia Road in Dorchester (the current home of Side Chick) to a larger space at 554 Colombia Road, and with indoor tables the menu expanded beyond meat pies, doubles, and other Trinidadian treats to include rice bowls and a generous hot bar; I’d bring home a bottle of Singh’s house-made hot sauce and try their Caribbean soft drinks and juices, especially the peanut punch." - Nathan Tavares
