While I was up in Orlando for a friendās wedding, I knew I had to get some delicious Trinidadian food! Come with me as I have some authentic Trinidadian street food in Orlando, Florida!
Iād be heading to Desi Vibes, a Trini pop-up spot in a garage in town just for the weekend. I first fell in love with doublesāa Trinidadian street food stapleāwhen I visited the Little Guyana neighborhood of NYC back in September of 2021.

I loved them so much that I booked a trip to Trinidad and Tobago to further explore the flavors of the islands in early 2022, and now Iām officially addicted!
Once I arrived, I met Kerrie, who was putting together a shrimp pie, and Stacy, who has a catering company. She also showed me some of their pepper sauce, tamarind sauce, chadon beni sauce, and more. I tried some of their pepper sauce, which is made from super hot scorpion peppers!
They also had cucumbers, aloo, and habaneros. They roast the habaneros and blend them to make a sauce. Desi Vibes is based in Houston, TX, out of Kerrieās home. You can contact her through DM on Instagram to place orders.
She added the roasted habaneros, some lime juice, garlic cloves, and culantro in a blender and blended it up. It smelled incredibly spicy! Then, she fried up some pholourie, which are savory fritters. Theyāre like Trini beignets!
Then, I watched the put soe doubles together by taking two baras and top them with chana, tamarind sauce, chadon beni, cucumber, and chili sauce. They also made an aloo pie.
I couldnāt wait to eat! My mouth was watering as she made my aloo pie and plated my doubles and pholourie.
I sat at a table with a man named Bill and showed him how to eat doubles. He said it was spicy! It definitely had a kick and was so savory and flavorful! The pepper in it was perfect!
Next was the jerk pork and jerk chicken, which melted in my mouth. The pork was nice and fatty, and the chicken melted in my mouth. It was so good!
Then, I jumped on the pholouries, which they had doused in the different sauces. They were soft and airy, and slightly crispy.
Next, I jumped on the shrimp pie. I could taste the potatoes a little bit. The shrimp curry inside was fantastic. Itās super filling and full of flavor!
The Stag beer was a nice lager. Then, I met Stacyās cousin, Sharon, who had just ordered some doubles. They have her stamp of approvalātheyāre tasty and authentic!
Then, Sharon fed me some of her doubles. It was so good, and spicy. The bara was amazing, but I was so full. I loved the ladies here! They were all so friendly. They serve until they run out!
