I'll take those too!

yum!!!!!

Hot crispy tostones with hot sauce, sweet maduras fried black, cut up and stirred into some rice and beans...

I like how you can eat them with either sweet food like ice cream or with meat and vegetables. Or just plain with some salt and a big bottle of soda.

I love em, but haven't had any for a long time...
what I like is you can eat them with just about
anything and they taste good.

Gat damn delicious ass plantains with ox tails, peas and rice...LAWD!!!

KidaDynamite said:

mmmmm

KidaDynamite said:

I like oxtails, but those things are a pain in the ass to eat. You have to get all down and dirty with your hands to eat those things properly. Not pretty.

sextonseven said:

I feel you. That's why I usually get curry chicken or something else but when I'm hungry and those ox tails are calling my name.....I'm right there with gravy running down my arm.

KidaDynamite said:

I got the MAAAAD Oxtails in my freezer right now and now, thanks to this thread (and the visual of Kida with gravy runnin' down her arms...) they are 'bout to get served!!!

KidaDynamite said:

Ohhh, I love curry chicken.

i go to the jamaican restaurant in the morning sometimes .. ackee and saltfish be done by 10 am. it breaks my heart to hear him say "no more"

DanceWme said:

The first time I ever had plaintains was with ackee and saltfish.

WHO"S HUNGRY????

Because the cuban population is so much a part of the vibe here in Tampa, you can find fried plantains popping up in restuarant menus everywhere. I swear, I saw fried plantains in a chinese restaurant buffet.

I. love. them
