When asked in New York for a quick food recommendation, food blogger Nicholas Nuvan didn’t pause for thought. Known for celebrating Caribbean food and culture, he responded with sharp clarity confidently naming spots that showed just how deeply the islands shape the city’s dining scene.
Each recommendation tied back to a different corner of the Caribbean:
Irie Jerk (Brooklyn) – “They got the best jerk chicken in Brooklyn,” Nuvan declared, spotlighting Jamaica.
La Bay Market – A Grenadian-owned fruit and vegetable market, keeping the taste of the tropics alive.
Trinidad Golden Palace – Famous for its currants rolls, a true Trini treat.
A&A Roti Shop – A household name for roti and doubles, staples of Trinidadian street food.
What impressed wasn’t just the list itself, but how confidently and instantly Nuvan delivered it. With no hesitation, he mapped out the Caribbean in New York — showing how Jamaican, Grenadian, and Trinidadian flavors all thrive in the city.
In that moment, his quick-fire certainty carried a clear message: to taste New York at its best, you taste the Caribbean.
“Love and blessings,” Nuvan signed off, sealing his choices with the same warmth that defines Caribbean culture.
