This weekend, Sarah and I went Gallery Hopping. We split dinner at one of our favorite restaurants, Alfalfa. It’s a downtown restaurant that specializes in Vegetarian fare, but they have delicious meat items as well. I love that they have a seasonal menu, so you can always get the freshest tastes. Friday, we very much enjoyed their Trinidadian Doubles. I would summarize what exactly it was, but their description does a much better job: “A spicy island chana with onion, potato, chickpeas, garlic, ginger, cilantro and spices folded inside fry bread then topped with mango kuchela and chopped scallions.”

I think this meal had the perfect balance between savory and sweet; the mangoes added just the right amount of sweetness to the dish. I also love how they always plate the food so beautifully. It sure makes eating a holistic experience for your senses!
