    Doubles

    My Favorite Trini Food Find of 2026 Probably some of the best Trini food outside of Trinidad! This little food truck in the Walmart/Green Acres area of Valley Stream, New York, is an absolute GEM. OMG... as soon as I took a bite of those doubles, I was transported right back to the Princes Town market on a Sunday morning, 34 years ago. That first bite brought back memories in a way I honestly wasn't expecting. The doubles are OUT OF THIS WORLD -- and with a nice, cold Peardrax? Come on! I also took home the boneless curried chicken wrapped in a TRUE thin Trini-style dhalpuri. Wow. Just WOW. The dhalpuri, the curry, the seasoning... everything tasted like home. This might honestly be my favorite food spot of 2026! They're open Friday, Saturday and Sunday, and there is usually a line. But trust me -- the wait is SO worth it. The food is fresh, flavorful, and tastes like somebody's Trini aunty is back there cooking for you. If you love authentic Trinidadian food, DO NOT sleep on this place. Doubles + Peardrax + boneless curry chicken dhalpuri = HEAVEN.

    I really wanted to love this place. I was in the mood for some Trini food but didn't feel like driving to Trinciti. It is super easy to get to this food truck. It is in the parking lot of Walmart/Home Depot but closer to the BJ's side. The wait was a bit long to order the food. They have a great ordering system in that they have a megaphone to call out your receipt number. I had a bit of a wait to receive my food. I initially went for corn soup and I should have just stopped ordering right there. The corn soup was very tasty. I didn't care for the dumplings that they had in it though. I poured pepper in my soup and it was real nice. I should have gotten two soups. I got an aloo pie with channa, pepper, tamarind, mango, cucumber, and chadon beni. This could have used more flavor, which is surprising, especially with all of the toppings on it. I got bake and saltfish with tamarind and pepper. I truly did not like or enjoy this at all. I took one bite and knew I shouldn't eat anymore. I took another bite to be sure and after that bite decided to just take my L and throw it all out. The saltfish was rubbery, at room temperature, and it tasted off. The bake itself seemed like it would taste okay but it was soggy and soaking in liquid. I literally opened this shortly after getting it so i don't know how the bake could be so soggy. I would not recommend the bake and saltfish at all. The aloo pie is okay but it wasn't giving what it needed to give. However, the corn soup was delicious. Def go for the corn soup.

    We went for a late breakfast on a busy morning. We ordered the aloo pie, doubles, and bake and shark. The best of the three was the aloo pie. The flavors were exactly as they should have been. The bake and shark was also good. We thought the shark could have had more meat to it and it was lukewarm at best compared to the aloo pie and the doubles although our order came all together. The doubles were ok, could have been better. It's a parking lot and we ate in the car so nothing really to say on ambiance. There were cars waiting when we arrived and a line when we were leaving. Decent choice if you're looking for something quick.

    Excellent doubles and sauces. Went by and ordered on a stormy day, quick wait and as the line drew longer, I started feeling more confident that the food would be what I hoped it would be. Good sized portions, fresh flavor! So happy to have found them.

    Unassuming food truck located next to an office building. Came to this food truck the day it opened. I ordered a goat roti, veggie roti and some doubles. This food did not disappoint! Absolutely delicious. Taste like someone's tanti made it. Delicious flavors, the goat was soft and seasoned nicely. The bara for the doubles was nice and thin. The roti skin was seasoned and flavorful enough it could stand alone. Now if they had buss up shot!...I'd live there. I would 100% be going back to this truck prob once a week bc the flavors taste like home. I'll have to try to go early next time before the bake and shark runs out. They take cash, card and pay by phone. The people working in the truck are very friendly as well.

    Corn soup

    Tried this food truck yesterday. They ran out of a few items. I ended up getting a veggie roti because they ran out of chicken and goat, Doubles and a corn soup! The doubles I got only had tamarind sauce, they were cool. The roti was ok, loved the skin, but ordered as is and to me it had too much going on inside. I wasn't a fan. Next time I will tailor the filling to my liking. Now that corn soup was the star of the show!!! Soooooooooo good. Would def come back for the soup. The wait is a little long but expected. Yesterday was windy, ppl were waiting in their cars. The owner called out orders. Would try them again.

    Ok, driving along on my way to run some errands and what do I see? A food truck for Trini food on the island! Looked up the business and found their instagram page and hours of operation. They also have an online menu to order via UberEats. Cool beans I'll make sure to swing by on my way back. Doing a study of their menu I saw that they had curry goat roti and doubles, but the time I got there to do my order in person they were out of the goat. Ok, no biggie so I ordered the boneless curry chicken, but they didn't have enough to fill a roti and I respected that. I know I wouldn't be satisfied with a half filled roti so I got the bone in chicken. They give you a choice of spice level and if you want mango or pumpkin in your roti. Spicy and pumpkin for me sir. My other half had mango and spicy shrimp roti and we got an order of doubles with everything on it. We didn't have to wait long for our order to be done. I do appreciate how the food was packaged in our to go containers. No chance of food being spilled on the way back home. My roti had some weight to it that I appreciated. It was spicy but not burn your tongue spicy more of the heat is there at a nice level. Curry chicken, curry shrimp and doubles was seasoned very well. I will return to try the curry goat and aloo pie

    I came here for lunch, and it was one of the most delicious meals I have had in New York. This is…read moremy first time trying Trinidad food, so I wanted to get everything. Inside there is a line to order, as well as kiosks on the side. There are also two small tables if you want to eat inside. The bathroom is very clean, and they also have a sink by the wall to wash your hands. Service is efficient and I got my food about 15 minutes after ordering. My favorite was 100% the doubles. The basic channa double with tamarind sauce and mango chutney was so soft and perfectly sweet and tangy. The oxtail and goat curry were also good, but the channa was far superior---which says a lot since I love meat. I like the softer texture of doubles more than the thicker aloo pie and thinner/dryer roti. And considering how affordable every item is, I would definitely come back if I am around the area!

The shop is steady busy with takeout orders and the occasional folks (like me) who wanted to sit and enjoy my first doubles there. They only have two tables and chairs. Most people order to go. You may order at the kiosk and wait for your number to be called when it is ready to pick up. The kiosk is good because it easily shows all the sauces you may add to your doubles and the variety of other things like drinks, etc you may order. There is also the option to get in line and place your oder. You can watch the assembly line of workers quickly making food. Then check out with the cashier. They sell lots of different cakes, breads, nuts, and drinks too. I was a little overwhelmed on what to order, but a nice employee helped me out. I showed him what I was trying to order and asked for suggestions. Thanks to him I had the best doubles! Added tamarind sauce, mango chutney, and the benny sauce. The perfect vegetarian meal for $2.50! It is made of roti (flatbread), curried chickpeas, and topped with the sauces. Then rolled up to make a sandwich. So flavorful! I wasn't too sure which drink to get as I wasn't sure what they all tasted like. Chose the Seamoss drink, which is a mix of milk, seams, nutmeg, and some spices. Milky and not overly sweet. This was good. Maybe next time I'll get sorrel, which is hibiscus. They said the peanut drink is good too. Ordered Pholourie with tamarind sauce. These are fried savory dough balls. I couldn't resist getting a sweet treat. So, I randomly picked the salara bread, which looks like a cinnamon swirl bread slice. It is actually stuffed with shredded coconut that is colored red and tastes like cherry. Pretty good and not overly sweet. Definitely add this place to your list of eats in Queens. It is a trek from the city, but so good! Also, nice that it is a little bit away from the loud busy part of Liberty Ave in Richmond Hill. This is about a 15-20 min walk from there on Lefferts Blvd. Restroom available.

I was even more disappointed when i sat down to eat lunch and my roti was a bit dry, had too much potatoes and the little sauce in it had an ok taste. The doubles, the put just a bit of spice but nothing special. Overall lunch was pretty tame on terms of flavor, total failure. Shame on them for selling subpar food. Will not come back. Deceiving practice to post they have a C grade, when i get to store its a grade pending instead of C. I appreciate integrity above all, still decide to buy food from them because is a local business and this is how they treat customers. Shame on them.

Unfortunately, they were out when I arrived, which was a bit of a letdown since that was the main reason for my visit. That said, I pivoted and ordered a double instead, and it turned out to be a solid choice. The double was flavorful, especially with the added peppers, and everything tasted fresh and well-seasoned. At just $3, it's hard to argue with the value -- a very fair price for a quick, satisfying bite. Overall, the food itself was good and definitely scratched the Caribbean street-food itch. The ambiance was standard and clean. My only real disappointment was the lack of salt and bake, since it's something I was genuinely looking forward to trying. Still, if you're in the area and craving an affordable, tasty double, this spot delivers. I'll likely give it another shot in hopes of catching the full menu next time.
