2023 Roti
Caribbean Style Cuisine
Walk into this one-table takeout spot in Delco, and behind a steam table of various Caribbean and soul-food delights, you’ll see an artist at work. A woman simply known as Nandi rolls out and makes every flaky roti to order, using flour, water, salt, a little sugar, a lot of love and kneading, and, she says, the perfect-temperature griddle — “hot, but not too hot!” Rotis have been in her family for generations, both from her native Guyana and also from her ancestors in India; “My roti have a little of all of that,” she says. They’re perfect for scooping up mounds of rich and spicy goat curry and snapper stew.
