Hott Shoppe - Port of Spain

The curry gravy is incredible—it's the best you'll ever taste! However, I do think the prices are a bit too high for what you get. I recently discovered a roti shop in Valencia that serves larger rotis that taste just as delicious, but for half the price.

Here's my take: the chicken lacked seasoning, which leads me to believe it wasn't marinated long enough. Additionally, the chicken had a grainy texture and just didn’t have the rich flavor I was hoping for. On a positive note, the potato was delicious! However, the mango was a bit too firm and wasn't the usual soft, melted mango you'd expect in a good curry. On the bright side, the buss up shot was quite good, and the portion sizes were generous—enough to feed two people, which is fantastic. I suggest marinating the chicken overnight and using the traditional method for cooking the curry. You should start by sautéing garlic in oil, then adding the curry paste and letting it cook a bit before adding the chicken. Despite my mixed feelings about the food, I will definitely return because of the excellent service and the portion sizes. Wishing you all the best!

I always love their roti! However, I have to wait on the sidewalk after placing my order, even if there are no customers inside. They do offer the option to order ahead by phone.

A popular take away eating place specifically for roti in Mucurapo. The quality is fair at this time of posting 2021-09-16. The delivery time is quite acceptable. The general organisation for serving customers, from placing the order to delivery is very good. There is clear signage in support of covid-19 protocols.

Used to taste better, standards have dropped. Roti is thick and curry is more geera than curry something is missing. My last visit, will be my last visit. I had curry beef, the beef did not look like curry and tasted heavy handed on the geera.
