Had some leftover chicken strips from HotBoys.
Teamed them up with the wifeys Pandan waffles.

Rice &. Peas, Callaloo, Cabbage, Plantain and festival bread with insane Oxtail prices

 

[DCAllAfrican]

Oxtails ain't worth as much as folks be asking for man.

 

[rooster]

First time seeing market prices listed for all the steak items at a taco spot
I got chicken tacos

2 plantains per order and insane oxtail prices I just don’t get

 

[rbk93]

Local spot charges $19 for a large plate, was $13 like a year ago.

Always go with the jerk chicken, oxtails is hype.

I only order jerk chicken if it’s off a grill. I don’t want oven jerk.

This reminds me of one of my birthdays when I was a kid. I explicitly told my mom that I don't like cake (she already knew that) and to not bother making or buying me one.

We finished up with dinner that night and I get ready to go back to my room when my mom tells me to stay put because she has a surprise for me.

Pulls a cake out and tells me "I know you said you didn't want one, but you have to try this one!"

I tell her I don't want a piece and that I explicitly told her not to do that.

She melts down, starts crying, pointing her finger in my face, and telling me how ungrateful I am. I walk out and go ride my bike over to my friend's house and spend the remainder of the night there.

You should have just tried the cake

team mom

Wasn’t this expensive when it was just a black delicacy.

My grandma used it in some of her dishes since I was a baby at least. I’m Polish btw so

I'm just going to quote this for maximum emphasis.

 

[OrangeBlueGarden]

I used to buy oxtail all the time from this spot that opened up where I live.. I forget the price but I think just for oxtail was like $12

Had coconut cake for my birthday party when I was a kid. It was one where there were little pieces of worm shaped coconut inside. Was not happy. Haven't had coconut cake since. Texture was too strange. Like grilled onions in cake.

 

[DCAllAfrican]

Yea not sure why an adult would give a child a damn coconut's cake. Cruel.

 

[cjlaw228]

Pretty sure these are just basically snicker-doodles but we’ll see

I thought Snickerdoodles had peanut butter in it. Never tried it because of that.

 

[Nouss]

Did you ever apologize?

 

[Comparison Ford]

For what?

Nah. Snickerdoodle top tier cookie.
