Average tacos for lunch

Tomorrow’s protein. Don’t know what I’m gonna make yet. The seasoning is called “all of the spices” and it’s good as hell.

I mean, I would just pick them up and "eat them just like that." - SC kid

Looks good

No but the seasoning clearly burns fast.

Should've massaged the seasoning in and let it sit for a min.

I always wonder if he has gotten robbed or at least TRIED.

I ate a boiled green banana with eggs and bacon. I might use them more often paired with food. I guess I can sub out times I would use sweet potatoes for them.

How do yall usually use them.

It's a multipurpose item that can be used for all three of the different meals. Usually, I boil them along with other ground provisions (yam, dasheen cassava, dumpling, etc), but they can also be cooked solo and paired with stew chicken, most curried items, steamed fish, ackee and saltfish, callaloo, etc. Most of these items have a nice gravy, so the green banana pairs very well with them. You can even use it to make porridge. Similar to the plantain porridge we also make with the green plantain.

Hmmm, making it with stews/curries sounds like a good idea. Thanks for that. Appreciate "The Help."

I also edited the post to add, that you can use it to make porridge as well.

Ok. I have tried that before. I enjoy the viscosity that gives the porridge.

I was trying to graduate using it as A side starch.

And since this is NT, here are some pics of the food:

If you're in the area, come & get a plate.

ABC7 News caught wind of my homie's restaurant and featured him on their #NeighborhoodEats segment yesterday. The link to the article and video is below. I'm happy to see he's up and running despite the current circumstances & the ever changing rules/regulations. Again, if you're ever in the area, come & get yourself a plate.

What are those 2 circular things below the tunas

The store here has a couple different sizes of pre-made crabcakes. We get the medium sized ones from time to time and they aren't bad. This time got the small ones to see what they were like since they were so cheap and they were trash. Wouldn't buy again.

Whats the red hook tavern

 

[Comparison Ford]

Billy Durney’s (Hometown BBQ) second restaurant. Reservation list was about 1-2 months out before COVID happened. Supposed to have one of the best burgers in NYC amongst other things. Great wine and cocktail list too.

And then shook out some red pepper (on the side) just on the box
