  • Bake and Shark is Trinidad and Tobago’s most iconic fast-food sandwich. It was popularized as a beach food on Maracas Bay, a beach in Trinidad, by Richard’s Bake and Shark. Now, the sandwich can be found all over the dual-island nation. Trinidadian fashion blogger Kamara Williams took producer Doyinsola Oladipo to try bake and shark for the first time at Trinciti Roti Shop and Restaurant in Queens, New York.

    I just ate this for the first time Sunday and it was a life changing experience. I’m losing my mind wanting more but have to wait till Friday because it’s only available Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I would need more hot sauce next time but it truly was the best sandwich I ever ate. I’ll need two also. So good!

    "bake and shark" is not available all over Trinidad, mostly in a few places. the Iconic street food of Trinidad, is without a doubt, doubles: an indian dish from an indian immigrant whose family is still a big part of the industry. Doubles is really, literally, everywhere in the country. Not bake and shark, which is mostly famous via maracas beach

    • @Burn143
      @Burn143 Před 7 měsíci +1

    What type of shark? I don’t think they are eating a non plenteous shark, and I think it’s ok to eat it, but on the other hand I mean, some are on the endangered or almost endangered species list. They clean up the oceans and keep the already fragile eco system in tact, so I’m just wondering what type they are eating. 😄

    • @JesusSucksUrDick
      @JesusSucksUrDick Před 4 lety +7

      By the looks of it... they prolly use dogfish.
      It is the only type of shark that is sustainable (that i know of) and they're freaking everywhere!
      If you been fishing in Florida, u wont be getting anything BUT Dogfish ..most of the time
      Considered to be trash fish (but thats damn good) most people dont bother eating it, and fishermen sell them by the pennies ..

      @Skychael Před 4 lety

      @@JesusSucksUrDick According to a quick google search, spiny dogfish (the first result when looking for "dogfish") is considered a threatened species.
      To quote wikipedia: "Once the most abundant shark species in the world, populations of Squalus acanthias have declined significantly. They are classified in the IUCN Red List of threatened species as Vulnerable globally and Critically endangered in the Northeast Atlantic, meaning stocks around Europe have decreased by at least 95%."
      From the Florida Wildlife Conservation - Division of Marine Fisheries "Florida Recreational Saltwater Fishing Regulations":
      "It is unlawful to harvest, possess, land, purchase, sell or exchange the following species: ......Smalltail Shark, Spiny Dogfish, Whale Shark....."
      From my brief google search the only commercially fished shark classified as "Least Concern" is the Gummy Shark from Australia.

      I've fished salt water from Alaska to Florida all my life, and I'm almost 60, what you catch is "mostly" determined by the bait and manner of fishing that you do. Sharks? Well they are pretty much everywhere all over the world. Now the stocks that are being overfished are those caught on unregulated long liners past the Economic Exclusion zone about 200 miles off the shore of the US and other countries that do not enforce their EEZ. The US has strick catch limits unlike many of the other countries in the world with few exception.

    People complaining about the eating of shark. I'm not going to cry over a shark, sorry, and besides it could be something sustainable and abundant like dogfish. Don't readily assume someone caught a great white and made this dish with it.
