Ever tried Caribbean food before?

Question

Does it taste spicy?

Answer 1

Delicious... 1/4 Jamacian...  

Naw, I would say tasty.  I think the Black Caribbean food (Jamacian/Trini/Barbados/Bahamas) is a little spicer than Spanish Caribbean (Puerto Rican/Cuban/Dominican).

Believe you me, it is all delicious.

If you like a fried potato tasting side dish, try Tostones - also a plantain - the green ones, don't look like overgrown/ripe bananas (Spanish Carib's make that).  The Black Carib's usually make the plantains (sweetish ones)...

And, the Black Caribs make a few Indian inspired dishes, made with curry.

Hope this helps...  You will get the best on the East Coast, either in Florida or New England.

Answer 2

plantains, yum!

Answer 3

It really depends on where in the caribbean your talking about. I know puerto rican/cuban food tends to be relatively nonspicy, but Jamaican can be I guess. It just depends.

Answer 4

Yes, I love Caribbean food.  It's spicy but many dishes also have a sweet component due to the use of fruit and/or coconut.  Jerk Chicken is a famous spicy Caribbean dish.

Answer 5

I am from the Caribbean and I don't think the food is spicy.  I would say it is flavorful with many condiments adding flavor not necessarily spice.

Answer 6

No, but i would love to try it..
