CUISINE
CONTEMPORARY AND ECLECTIC
Our contemporary menu with eclectic Caribbean and Latin American cuisine is inspired by traditional recipes from tropical places in the West Indies and Latin American region, such as Cuba, the Netherlands Antilles, Jamaica, Surinam, Trinidad and Tobago.
SOUP IS A HEARTY AFFAIR
The Caribbean Housewife makes Hot Soul Soup, which is plant based, vegetarian, vegan, gluten- and lactose-free, and as far as possible made with organic or biodynamic products. Caribbean soup is a hearty affair. The soup dishes are often rich and seasoned with fresh herbs like thyme. There is no thin broth and the soup is not a “boring” first course. Instead, our soup is the star of the menu and the highlight of your day! Examples are the ‘Surinaamse Dame’, a creamy Surinamese peanut soup, ‘Take me to Trinidad & Tobago’, a cassava corn chowder, or the ‘Caribbean Queen’ a zesty carrot ginger soup with cashew nuts. We are currently developing our soup into a new convenience product! Next to unique soups we make vegetarian and vegan dishes, such as delicious salads, pão de quejio, cornbread, empanadas, jackfruit, pupusas, plantain, and desserts.
HUSMORMAD
For those who want healthy home-made meals like our ‘Husmors Lasagne’, ‘Mac ‘n Cheese’, and ‘Chili sin Carne’. For the omnivores we occasionally offer options such as ‘Jerk Chicken’ or ‘Chicken ‘n Waffles’ on the menu. The last dish is also made in a vegan version with jackfruit. We make many amazing dishes with jackfruit, including curry, taco’s, and even burgers.
