As you all know, I am trying to hone my caribbean cooking skilllllzzzz. One of my fav neighborhood joints is called Sunny Spot. Roy Choi, the man behind the Kogi food truck phenomenon, has opened a restaurant that draws inspiration from the caribbean. The menu is pretty much perfect and yes, I intend to steal from it. The menu is full of dishes that make me feel like I'm on vacation including plantains, jerked goat, a pork chop marinated in red stripe, prawns in a perfect habanero sauce.....so yummy. The cocktails pair perfectly with the food and when I close my eyes, the flavors really conjure up that last trip I took to a tropical locale. Heaven.
Here are some pics from a recent visit......and yes, that's my pal Jordan, who until his recent move to Oz was a bartender extraordinaire at Sunny Spot.
