Delicious Caribbean Cuisine
Dive into a tsunami of flavor and savor the soulful flavors of the Caribbean. Each corner of the region offers its own unique and tantalizing treats, and at Taste of the Caribbean, you can try them all!
Cuba
Cuban cuisine is a compelling fusion of Spanish, African, and Caribbean influences, creating a culinary tapestry rich in flavor and history. The aroma of garlic and cumin wafts through the air, laying the foundation for many iconic dishes. Taste of the Caribbean wouldn’t be complete without Cuban comfort food.
Jamaica
Jamaica's cuisine is a bold symphony of spicy, savory, and sweet notes that dance on the tongue. The island's signature jerk seasoning ignites the palate with a fiery blend of scotch bonnet peppers, allspice, and thyme, ignites the palate with a lingering warmth that's addictively satisfying.
Yucatan Peninsula
The Yucatán Peninsula's cuisine is a vibrant tapestry of Mayan tradition and colonial influences. This creates a unique flavor profile distinct from other Mexican regions. Achiote paste, with its earthy, slightly peppery taste and vivid red color, is a cornerstone of Yucatecan cooking. Find these delicious flavors and more at Taste of the Carribean.
Haitian
Haitian cuisine is a vibrant fusion of African, French, and indigenous Taíno influences, resulting in bold, complex flavors that tell the story of the island's rich cultural history. At the heart of many Haitian dishes are rice and beans.
