After exploring the island of Trinidad for several days, my friends and I hopped a quick flight over to its sister island of Tobago to explore the food and culture there. We started with some amazing fried chicken!
Our first adventure on the island was in the city of Canaan. My friends Jason, Candice, and David and I set off to Block 22 Restaurant & Bar, the number one spot on the island to have fried chicken.

Jason had never had Block 22’s chicken either, so it was a first for him as well! I learned that they also sell fish. They’re famous for their chicken sandwiches, and they offer tons of sauces.
The pieces of chicken they use are massive. They’re bigger than the bread for the sandwiches!
I headed into the back, where they were breading and frying some kingfish. They were also frying some chicken in a huge pot.
They use coconut bake as the bun for the fish, it’s called bake and fish. They also serve the kingfish with fries, and they put the chicken on a hops bun.
In the back, I watched the cook flour 30 pieces of chicken. It fries for 20 minutes, and even though it was 9 at night, she had a lot more to fry!
First, we started on the chicken, which was so simple but very tasty and juicy. The crunch on the outside was fantastic. I really loved the sauces and the fluffy hops bread. The tamarind sauce added a sweetness and tartness!
I really liked the mustard, too. The best thing about the chicken was how fresh it was. It doesn’t sit for a long time and was perfectly fried and battered.
I’d never had chicken like this before. The skin was almost like chicharron. There are many tamarind trees on the island, so tamarind is popular on Tobago.
Next, we jumped on the kingfish and fries, which looked crispy and amazing. It was so fresh, and the batter took it to the next level.
The coconut bake was amazing with the tamarind sauce. It soaked up the sauce well and pairing it with fish was amazing.
Finally, I ended with some Carib lager. It was a light, crisp lager, probably around 4.2% alcohol content. It would be perfect for the beach!
This food was so good, I was at a loss for words!

Dude you are so correct. This spot is my number one spot to go to in Tobago 🇹🇹 for good chicken. My mouth is watering looking at this episode. Nice to see Block 22 still going strong.
Epic presentation... thanks a trillion #Davidbeenhere #Block22Restuarantandbar
Wow!!! Crispy ,crunchy and all the savoury to sweet condiments compliment the fried chicken and fried fish to perfection.❤
So happy that you're experiencing the flavors of both islands. Enjoy David 💛💛😊💞
I don't mine going to Tobago just to try that but I think Trinidad needs some branches. David said it's the best fried chicken he's ever had and he's been to so many countries! They definitely need to expand.
It is the best and its even more delicious at 1/2 in the morning after you come from liming
@@sheresenedd4831 no lies told. When its late it hits different.
Keep it coming!!! Loving it
Just lookin at those old pots i know that chicken was bussin😋 Another great video David! 🍻💕

Grew up next door to block 22 enjoyed the fish and chicken from since I was a little girl. I'm so proud of you Ms. Lucille, Makena and Carson. After seeing this video I'm home sick.....really the best fried chicken I've ever tasted....Maga bones.
Hello Tobago!! Always enjoy my time there whenever I go home. Trinbago to de bone🥰
Jason you need to explain what trinis mean by the word "fresh"...fresh has different meaning to non trinis lol.
I'm loving these vids David...can't wait to see more. I have commented for sonny and mark to come to trinidad ...you should convince them! I honestly think trinidad has the best tasting caribbean food :)
Is the food spicy???

Haven't had block 22 in a long time, best after party spot
SATISFYING CHICKEN HA?😋😋
LOVED THAT😋😋
I miss block 22 I have not been to Tobago since 2015 and I miss hitting up that spot as soon as I get off the plane
the ultimate late night meal. If you're hungry at 1am u could get a sandwich. It's delicious, they open late, affordable and always hot. They changed the way they do their fish. I loved the whole fish, with the head and fin, super delicious.
the tail, not fin, lol
Hi Jason and David love you guys
Glad dat u also enjoy my baking we do our own hops and coconut bake thank you
Love it..MY BROTHER...
Chef Jason is awesome
The way I would have eaten it was pull the meat off the bone and then put it onto the bread and then eat it
you can actually bite the bread and chicken just make sure a meat part close to the bread then go for it
@@sheresenedd4831 oh didn't think about that
@@bobbyhawk8797 yep that's how I eat it when I buy
Yes block 22 is a must after smoking some herb or beach
yum
Mmmho 🤣🤣 best word 👌
yummy!!!!
For the sake of his non-Trini fans, David will never admit it, but he knows in his heart that Trinidad 🇹🇹 is the undisputed #1 in the world for the most flavorful food.
Ahhhhh wanttttttt😭😭😭😭
You boys good
Yeah yeah big up to Prince , Patrice and Gemma .
Am from grenada and I must visit south
I’ve never been this early…
David king khaled missed you so much
