Haitian Food Experiences That Are Not Restaurants

9/8/2018

0 Comments

 
Haitian food is a huge part of the Haitian culture. Eating is always an amazing experience in Haiti, not only because everything is delicious, but because they are so many non-traditional ways of getting food. When I sat down and thought about my food experiences in Haiti, I realized how much fun eating Haitian food is!

Here are some of my favorites...

Coconut {kokoye} cut the top off and drink from it

person man climbing tree to get a coconut, eat coconut, coconut milk, eat from the earth, haitian food, haiti, machete, coco loco

Almond {zanmann} pick it from the tree, smash it with a rock to open it and enjoy

haiti, haitian nature, pick almond from tree, zanmann tree, natural foods, organic food island, caribbean

Seafood {manje ki f​èt ak bèt lanmè}  caught fresh whenever you want

fresh seafood by the sea, ocean, sunday funday, wahoo bay, kaliko bay haiti, haitian hotel, fisherman, red snapper, crab, lobster, roma, catch fish and grill, haitian boat, lunch, dinner on the water

Watermelon {melon dlo} from the side of the road stand

Sugar cane {kann} from the market {mache}

Vegetable markets {mache}  or snack stands at the beach

 Grocery stores like Giant Supermarket {makèt}

Make your own kitchen with a gas stove {founo}  when there's no electricity

Just like traveling to any new place, learning about the food and trying new things is so much fun!

September is Haitian Gastronomy month! Haiti is known for it's hospitality and delicious food. I have been lucky enough to experience preparing, cooking and serving Haitian food at special events in Haiti. Here are some of the shots.
