A&A Bake & Doubles, Brooklyn
Been hearing so much great buzz about A&A that I decided they’d be the second restaurant I’d visit as part of my weekly “CBTPB” (“C.B’s Trains, Planes and Boats”) feature here on Eataku, where I make a food excursion using one of those methods of transportation. As much as I would have loved to have hopped a plane to Trinidad & Tobago, I ended up taking the A train out to Nostrand Ave. in Brooklyn instead...
I’ve been to Trinidad & Tobago twice and fell in love with the country. Traveled there for work originally, where, unknown to many, they actually have a small but active comic scene, and visited the second time for a personal vacation, where we explored the local culinary and cooking scenes. We still use a lot of ingredients and recipes we acquired and learned about on that trip, but are always on the look out for good Trini restaurants. And now we’ve found a winner!
We went to A&A for their famous doubles, which arre two pieces of fried dough stuffed with curried chickpeas, only to have them sell out while we were in line. Doubles are usually eaten early, so we should have known to get there before noon. So instead we took whatever they had left when we got to the counter, which was a fry bake (fried bread) stuffed with salt fish and house made "spicy” sauce...
And also a roti bake filled with curried shrimp...
Both bakes were EXCELLENT! Two of the best bites we’ve eaten this year so far. The texture of each bread perfectly complimenting the fillings, the thinner and crunchier fry working well with the drier fish, with the more pillowy roti standing up well to the sauced shrimp.
We’ll be going back soon to not only have these again, but to try our best and get the doubles we missed by arriving too late. Just have to make sure we make it a morning excursion next time as A&A open at 6:30am!

🖤 io laithe 🖤 emegen qalli 🖤 abeni saif 🖤
#blacktober#black etheirys#ffxiv#io laithe#emegen qalli#abeni saif#my babiesssss#most of my ocs are brown but these three are explicitly Black#while i don't really dabble in self-inserts there's a certain comfort in being able to see an aspect of yourself in your characters <3#important to me :>#azia gposes#a lil lore for each:#io's caduceus minion + alte roite mount are one in the same. a lil familiar that morphs from snake to dragon as needed :>#emegen's scale mod + face mod fucked each other up somehow and she's now got pale skin on her neck-chin-and around her facial scales#so we're canonizing vitiligo for her#and then abeni is a swordsman trained in eastern styles. and she's gay as hell

*Oli and Shelby approach the vines in the evermore*
You sure these are even that bad? They don't look too awful.
They will literally end the world if we don't move them
(ooc I thought it would be worth it to send you an ask, at the very least for scenery, and just in case there is something going on with the roots)
*the fog seems thicker in the area, and the answer is clear. Some strands of the roots are gathering fog to conceal their presence. It’s clear they do not wish to be found*

Sky-Byte, finishing up a soliloquy: "By the time this race is over, there will be nothing left of the autobots but tiny little pieces of scrap metal >:)"
Sideburn, who has been summoned by the color red: "Hi there, cutie😘 nice paintjob"
Sky-Byte:
#just look at his face#i absolutely love sky byte's reactions in his shark altmode#i actually prefer it over his root mode#sideburn has an extra sense and it's solely for detecting pretty little red sports cars#even if it's a Predacon in disguise... again...#tbh i thought we were gonna pull up to skidz and he was gonna hit on skidz#alas... another time#sky byte#sideburn#just... my mans#rOIT BRAIN YOU ARE GOnna stOP right thEre becaUse I just had the most horrIBLE HORriBLE Idea#can i hit my own brain with the newspaper?#tf rid01#correct quotes
