Sunday Dinner in Brooklyn, New York « Camille Cares — Wed, 18 Apr 2012 03:03:20 +0000

[...] Even though I am miles from my birthplace of Port of Spain, Trinidad, I am still deeply in love with its cuisine. My favorite meal is Sunday Dinner. Trinidadian Sunday dinner has a reputation of having lots of traditional side dishes. Today, I am making a must-have dish called “callaloo” with salted pig tail and crab legs. Callaloo is a popular Caribbean vegetable dish that is prepared as a side dish or as a soup in other countries. In Trinidad, callaloo is prepared with dasheen bush, okra, coconut milk and the regular mirepoix of garlic, onions, scallion, pumpkin, thyme and other grounded seasonings. I am substituting the dasheen bush for fresh organic whole leaf spinach from the farmer’s market. [...]

The weather on the northeast coast is always a toss up during the winter months. All I can hypothetically advise is that you should prepare for wintry mix weather, which includes: rain, freezing rain, snow, strong winds and or flurries. So if you are unsure of your driving skills in winter weather, I strongly suggest taking that into consideration, because there are times when storms hit the entire east coast, so driving north along I-95 may be risky. With that being said, you should definitely pack clothes that will keep your warmest during the colder weather, but still allow you to walk around and site see in Manhattan, Brooklyn and the rest of the city.
Regarding places to see, I would definitely tell you to select a Broadway show, get tickets to a music concert at MSG and/or purchased tickets to a Knicks basketball game or a Rangers hockey game. I would also say, you can check out Time Out NY, Zagat, Yelp and City Search for restaurant choices. There are a lot of spots with fine cuisine for not that expensive, and then there are also over priced places, but if you have any questions, search for it on Yelp and you should check out comments and feedback left by prior customers. I hope you have a wonderful trip and thank you for stopping on my blog to inquire about NYC. I love this city, I was born in Port of Spain, Trinidad, but raised and live in Brooklyn, NY. There are some similarities and a LOT of differences, but coming from Central America, I think you will find the same thing. Check back my blog and find me on twitter and facebook.

I’m planning a road trip with my family from Miami to New York for this December, but our main concern is weather! I live in Central America, so we aren’t use to driving in snow or ice. We have done it, but are not really used to it. Is the I-95 too icy or snowy? We would love to have snow for our Holidays, but are kind of worried if it would be safe for us to take the road trip.
Beside this what suggestions can you give us, we are a family of 4 adults, where to stop and what to see… We are planning to stay at least 4 nights in nyc, stop in Orlando for 2 nights and have about 15-16 days to do it and back
Thanks!!!
