It had to happen and it has. Now you can get meat in your doubles. And fittingly it has arrived in the capital of doubles, Curepe. (Debe is the capital of everything else indofried). This Curepe vendor sells doubles with chicken, duck, shrimp, goat, beef and they apologised for being out of conch.
I had a duck doubles. And it was brilliant. It evoked feelings of a Caura River lime with the cook hitting the sweet spot on this day. No short cuts because “it’s only doubles”. Rather curry duck to die for. And a la Maracas bake and shark, a superfluity of dressings and topping to enhance the experience.
I had Doubles with goat in the Fatima fete this year. I thought it was a Fete thing. It’s now become a street thing. And at twelve dollars a pop (duck doubles), not bad in terms of value.
Baked doubles can’t be far away.
