Being from certain Countries and eating certain foods, we tend to think our dishes are the best, an outsider's view is probably the most accurate.
What dish, do you ask yourself, what is the big fuss about?

the title of the thread was 'overrated dishes'. black changed it after my post 
i didnt pay. dinner or lunch as the case maybe was at her place. she was a good cook too and loved fine dining. i learnt a lot about food, wines, pre and postprandial drinks and fine dining from that lady. we used to dress formally too. she is who taught me about single malt. had a great collection
every week would be a different meal, french, Mediterranean, Asian etc.

Is Trini souse the same as Guyanese souse?
I think souse is ok but it's not something I would die for.
2016-12-22 02:08:37
Alright
I humbly withdraw the labelling of souse as overrated
My wife, had she read this, would similarly express her horror at the souse diss

Chicken is too cheap in America for me to be eating the feet. As for the pork, I might have a bite or two but I would not indulge heavily.

Phew.
'Souse' is done different in Bim than in most of the Caribbean. Both style delicious.
Souse in Bim is more (much more) about pickled cucumber/onion
Bajan Souse
an example of a poor 'non-souse' souse that some restaurants in Bim pass as souse
Regular Souse
All taste good!

Wow...to me the taste of the cucumber is in the juice...the juicier the tastier...grating drains the juices quickly.

True, I never knew grated cucumbers were used.
I doesn't seem to make sense but, to each his own.
