The Story Behind the Stove
From the Savannah in Arima to a Jamaican Table.
The Trinidadian side of our family traces back to Arima, where our Grandfather was raised along historic Pro Queen Street in a home right across from the velodrome and the savannah.
The next generation brought that heritage into a Jamaican home: our father was second-generation, born to a Jamaican mother and a Trini father. Though he was Jamaican through-and-through—without a Trini accent, and while he never got into Souse—he was exposed enough through family visits to know, crave, and deeply love the food, especially a steaming pot of Pelau.
Holiday trips back to Trinidad meant stepping right into that vibrant family enclave. There was our family home where Granny and Granddad lived—with the velodrome and the savannah (really a community park) right across the street, where Dad fondly remembers playing football on those holiday visits. Right next door lived Aunt Vi (his Grandmother's sister) and Aunt Gwen, and just a stone's throw away was the home of the Clevelands—cousins whose bustling, warm house felt like being fussed over by half a dozen grand aunts.
Visiting family homes meant sweet hospitality—homemade coconut ice cream, and at Christmas, the kitchen smelled of steaming banana leaves wrapping seasoned pastelles and sweet payme. For street food, doubles was often the very first thing you got right after landing at Piarco, or whenever his Uncle Brian would take them out to his favourite doubles man (in Trinidad, even the women selling were affectionately known as "doubles man"). And of course, visiting the nearby bakery specifically for fresh, flaky currant rolls.
And of course, an integral part of the Trini experience: warm, flaky buss-up-shut paratha served with rich curried channa. It was the plate you never forgot—buttery pastry ribbons torn by hand, scooping up every drop of tender, cumin-scented chickpeas and potato.
RotiStreak is our way of reclaiming a small piece of that heritage, and gifting you with some of that flavour. We take the craft of flaky paratha and slow-simmered curried channa from our Pro Queen Street roots, bringing that comforting island tradition to our Jamaican home for a hearty, soul-satisfying meal.
