This month’s box – The Indo-Caribbean Box! Another remix of our Indo-Caribbean Box just in time for Divali!✨
Trinidad & Tobago and Caribbean cuisine is multi-cultural and unique due to the many ethnicities that arrived centuries ago and now call the region home. One of the major influences to the cuisine came through the East Indians that arrived in the 19th century, bringing their traditions, religion & of course food. Through the years the flavors have evolved to become truly Caribbean in taste!
