It's tiny and tight but stylish at Cane, referencing Trinidad's history of producing sugar cane. With brightly colored shutters and pastel artwork, there's a definite tropical vibe about this place, where one wall even boasts a picture of former President Obama eating a double. The menu is a love letter to Trinidadian street food, and everything prepared by the kitchen is delicious: think rich stews, perfect doubles and channa, redolent of spices and heat. Snapper escoveitch is a light and flaky fish deep fried to perfection, then strewn with colorful pickles and pickled chili peppers. The pepperpot arrives smoldering with aromatic cinnamon; while perfectly braised brisket in spicy brown sauce features tender root vegetables, paired with rice and scooped into a fresh coconut shell.
