Description
Located off the beaten path, Sisters Caribbean Cuisine is East Harlem’s diamond in the rough. Hidden away on 124th street between Park and Madison Avenue, this intimate Caribbean and Southern café has a unique décor that will remind you of home. Since 1995 owner, Marlyn Lawrie-Rogers’ hands-on approach to food preparation and customer service not only ensures a plate of the highest quality, but also one tailored to your exact desire. We customize your order with whichever meats/fish and rice you fancy, and encourage you to eat at least two healthy vegetables (e.g. greens & yams, cabbage & string beans, okra & spinach). Then, to top it off our world famous pineapple cornbread is the perfect sweet ending to your memorable dining experience. The diverse origins of our dishes is one of our most unique characteristics. We serve, Trinidadian style: calaloo or kallaloo, caramelized-brown stew chicken, Masala curry chicken, and fresh baked roti. Jamaican style: jerk chicken (hot & spicy), oxtail stew with carrots, vegetarian red bean soup with dumplings, carrots & potatoes, curry goat, and curry chickpeas & potatoes. Southern style: baked macaroni & cheese, oven baked chicken, vegetarian collard greens, candied yams and Sisters baked flat cornbread. Also on the menu is: sautéed codfish (Spanish bacalao), salmon and red snapper with special fish sauce. On occasions Sisters offers southern fried chicken, fried fish and potato salad.
