chinese take out, or better yet, delivery.

In my kitchens, I let the Mexican staff, have at it. Being in California this is the best way to please all staff members. My favorite is Chilaquiles, awesome mexican comfort food. Otherwise tacos pescado is very popular. Hint- We alway make menudo on sunday mornings to insure all staff shows to work. The Italian staff pulls their aside to add tomatoe, celery olive oil and grated cheese for Trippa al pomodoro.

I lived in the Caribbean for five years, working as an Exe.Chef on three different islands. It was always a treat to make it to San Juan for a long weekend getaway, also for the great food. The Spanish islands are my favorite, with a very strong african/spanish culinary tradition. Alot of the best cooks in the spanish caribbean come from Dominican Republic, with their full flavored spicy dishes. The Caribbean is a big Smorgasbord, with the very best food being cooked in the home, usually in one pot. Barbados has the Ostens fish market, with fish steak, Roasted Breadfruit and Peas and rice. Good Soca Music and a Banks Beer, all under $8.00. Also try Bajan chicken with Macaroni pie. Jamaican curried conch, Trinidadian Roti, and ofcourse lobster on the beach. I can go on.

I agree with Ned on roasting goat in term of treating it like we do lamb. My favorite preperation is Birria, a regional Mexican Goat Stew, very popular in the State of Jalisco. accompanied with Spanish rice, Pico de Gallo and alot of cervesa. I also like the East Indian Curried Goat served with Nam bread. The Jamaicans do their version of Goat Curry served with dumplings, boiled green banana or roasted Breadfruit. Also I can't forget Manish water, a Goat Tripe Soup found in the Caribbean usually at a road side stand or a festival.
