Steamed Mussels with Lime & Cilantro

This is a nice departure from the usual steamed mussels in wine. The jalapeno and chile sauce supply a little kick and the lime and cilantro give a boost of "fresh" flavor. Even the biggest carb-o-phobics will be sopping up the amazing broth with fresh, crusty bread(just ask my neighbor, Dr. G)!

Lila's Trindad Doubles

This is a Trinadad street food, like hotdogs to New York! My good friend from Trinadad has shared this recipe with me. Doubles are two round peices of indian bread (bara) with a chick peas filling (chana).

Regatta Smoked Trout Pate

This is the best smoked fish dip ever! Look at the ingredients.... fish should always be the largest ingredient in a fish dip, not cream cheese, which you will find in the grocery store.
