Montreal’s Best Caribbean Food for When You’ve Had Too Much Poutine - Dining on a Dime 

He's sitting at my table. Finally some acknowledgement of this place. Been going there practically my whole life.

i think the best way to distinguish Caribbean curries from East Indian ones is that in the West Indies, the meat is often marinated in green seasoning. In Trinidad, that would usually consist of grinded green onions, shado beni or bandhania (also known as blessed thistle or culantro), garlic, pimento pepper, and scotch bonnet pepper. I also like to add Spanish thyme as well. It gives the dish a distinctly West Indian flavour that's very different from the curries that you'd find in India.

Lucas is low-key one of the best RU-vidrs out there. He is probably the most genuine creator on the network. Absolutely zero ego and zero "fake honest behavior" a la Casey Neistat and Markerplier.

Damn... I remember that BK doubles episode... and look at Lucas apologizing... omg... he loves us and we love you bro!

Lucas, eat your doubles however you want.

Thank you for representing this food and culture. Some of the best food on the planet.

Bring back Dining on a Dime! I have really missed this series!

Only 76k views. For the love of God if this series starts to die it'll stop being produced and I DONT WANT THAT

Well done, Lucus and you can eat your doubles anyway you want - I'm Trinidadian! 😁👍🏽

I eat my doubles like a sandwich and I'm Trini (born in canada tho) cuz I don't always want curry under my nails... do you

respect this dude for not sticking to downtown, mile end, plateau, and saint henri. that being said, keep all your airbnbs to those areas so you dont fuck up the rent for the rest of us. MTL JTM

Such a down to earth personable guy. Great episode! I love how you describe the food!

it's always good to see a Lucas vid on Eater 🙂

Awww love it!!!

Best spot hands down! Should've had the oxtail though !

I find it interesting how Caribbean food is prepared in Montreal vs Ontario. Looks like a lot of the meat there in Montreal is ground meat where I am in Burlington Ontario (do a search for D Hot Shoppe on RU-vid) the Caribbean food tends to be dark meat based off the bone stews. I love doubles. In Toronto there are some Caribbean restaurants that are also serving Bake & Shark. See Bizarre Foods show on RU-vid in Trinidad & Tobago episode.

LOL... that invisible elevator... that is exactly why I love Lucas, in a nutshell.

LA Maison du Cari looks like a real winner! I like spice, but not rip the roof of your mouth hot spice. Where would you put it vis-a-vis the 4* heat at Thai or Indian places? I like 2 or 3* best. What js a typical Trinidadian beverage (besides water/tea? I like a Mango Lassi with Indian food, e.g. thanks for sharing! Another of the immense diversity in Montreal cuisine!

I so enjoyed this.. Wish we had this in the States

When is the next video coming out?

accross the street at spices you can get hands dowm the best patties in the city

flat bread is thick, west Indian roti is soft and fluffy!, The curry house in Montreal is great.

My favorite is Mona's in Scarborough.

I want goat to become more mainstream as it is delicious.

great video sir

Are those Jamaican patties on that counter that’s in the warmer???

I need a Lucas Q&A

that first lady was so awkward

I am glad to see that you can still get a roti in Montreal but I have to say that this curry is too white in color.

is it me or is lucas kinda getting big? lol.. love the show and this great man.. more power to the whole team!

Lucas...you eat that double any way you want!!!

I almost figured this would feature Haitian food given Montreal lol

Hmmmm, just one minute....this is mostly Trini food...from Trinidad.....and that's just ONE area of the Caribbean.....

THE JAMAICAN PATTY JUST IN FRONT ARE FABOULOUS

Look at my country making it in the states. Ps doubles is the best and totally taste but its like $5 for one which is like $1us

Carribean curry wow

As a Trinidadian I can say that, that doubles looks sad lol

eat whatever food you want tha way you want

I think I saw you on Westworld.

great episode but really awkward conversation between Lucas and the store owner lol

Give Lucas an internal Asia budget hit Japan 🍣

Wicked episode. Quebec seems to be the last bastion of Mom n’ Pop home cooking -from all cultures- in Canada. From my experience the rest of the country has rolled over and accepted inferior chain franchises (ie Tim Hortons etc). In Quebec it feels like a greater appreciation is placed on homemade food and tradition. We also have wicked roti shops in Ontario but I’m happy to see some positive exposure for lesser known Montreal establishments

Rule #1....DOH CUT MY ROTI IN HALF!!!...AH WANT IT WHOLE!!! Rule #2....DOH MAKE NO DAMN HOLE IN MIH ROTI!!!....LEMME DO DAT SHIT! Two Golden rules a trini would tell you.

Lucas, I been waiting for your show!

Lucas, when will you come to West coast Canada. Vancouver is waiting for you!

So its not the same from indian cuisine, it's CURRYbbean

Is it me or has the production quality gone down?

What is wrong with gamey? I love the flavor of gamey meat. It has flavor. The problem with chicken and beef in the USA is that all the flavor is bred out of the meat.

All I can say is Toronto may be the closest in the whole of Canada to give you the exact replica of a Trini doubles. In Trinidad, the Original doubles “cannot” be eaten like a sandwich because the filling is never thick like paste😂

you eat the doubles like Indian foot, the roti is the cutlery.

Next time visit Trinidad and Tobago..

Huge portions, looks awesome

Man, I miss Lucas

He didn’t like the goat 🤣

Apology accepted! So the only thing left to do is to come to Trini and eat doubles from the source!

That guy looks like bautista

Somali food is very similar to this ..we even call it roti

Can't go wrong with Caribbean food...

normally i get dubles and they are served like hot dog style kinda and u can eat them without gtting your hands dirty on your way to work or something

Should check out the Japanese or Korean food scene in MTL

Used to be 100% better with the original owners. Used to go there decades ago. Not the same now

Why are all these Indians from India leaving comments. Leave us alone for Gods Sake with your dirty oily food. We are descendants of Indian labourers that were taken from Bihar & Uttar Pradesh in the 1800’s to the Caribbean islands of Trinidad & Guyana. Do some research before you leave senseless comments

Doubles is a lot like puri-channa in India.

I think goat tastes gamey similar to lamb

Currybbean!

I'm Indian this is just what the Indians who moved to the Carribbean a long time ago make. It's Indian food,the first girl also sounds indian, and roti is indian.This is the same thing that happened in Canada, with all the Indians who moved there a long time ago.All those spices he said are exactly what is used in Indian curries. This is not Carribbean food, there are so much African influence in the Carribbean culture, why do y'all have to copy Indian and say that it's not the same thing.

What!?! I eat my double like a taco/burger

Love me some roti but I'm tired of seeing trini and jamaican only being represented as Caribbean food.🇧🇧🇧🇧

Those keys bother me

So you want to change your title to "Trini local food". You're welcome.

Lucas is the best!

Hahaha nice try Lucas, but you still eating doubles wrong. Come to Trinidad and locals will show you how to eat it properly ;)

160 welcome to the hood

If your from Montreal, everyone knows to NEVER EAT at Curry House

One day u will see this comant!

is it rumali roti??

Rule #3.....who de ass eat roti with knife and fork?? Rule #4....I curry Goat!!...not goat curry!!....doh ever let ah trini hear you say dat!

my guy

Eat your doubles how you want. People are too up tight

Aweee the mean commenters hurt Lucas 😭😭😂

this goofball didnt even try the pepper sauce its the best part!

overexposed AND out of focus *chefs kiss*

I live around that area!! He is DEFINETLY NOT DOWNTOWN lol

I don't care what you say that's a flipin tortilla

Carribbean food is ok, but let’s talk about Asian food. Asian food always tastes better in Los Angeles compared to New York City, especially at those restaurants opened and operated by immigrants. Today on “Go Out On A LIM”, I am going to take you to three places that are my regular haunts whenever I visit LA. You can visit all three in one day like I did if you don't mind breaking the scale in your bathroom. Link: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-r-jx6nW6r6k.html

one can never have enough MEAT.

You still eating the doubles wrong

I can never be poutine or smoked meat'd out, no chance ever!

having been married to a trini, "stuffed" roti is not just a montreal touch to roti, they eat it that way on the island.

Apology excepted!!!!

It is like asian style fooooooooood

No such thing as to much poutine

that coconut tree is ugly.

this is how culture loose itself st

I used to bitch at you to come to montreal on every episode and then once you did ive been shitting all over your restaurant choices xD You have been going to stupid hipster spots that annoying plateau yuppies go to. However THIS is a real montreal spot! More restaurants like this!

Theres no way you didnt try the jamaican patties you have disgraced them

Who is this clown? I've seen a few of his videos now about Montreal (I'm born and raised) and it's like he came here, asked one person 'who makes the best curry', 'who makes the smoked meat', 'who makes the best bla bla', and makes a video like he's an expert. I've eaten at this particular curry place since the early 90s.They used to be pretty good - not great. By NO MEANS does this place rank high on anyone's list who actually lives here and knows west Indian food and certainly not in recent years. The little hole in the wall takeout counter across the street (Mr Spicee) has always served WAY better rotis and doubles... even though it's take out only. Another internet clown who doesn't know what he's talking about.

use your hands boi

No ...doubles ARE eaten like a sandwich ..which guyanese show u dat

too much Putin this guy aint from Canada
