Caribbean cabbies gather at this modest storefront for fried goat, stewed chicken and other island favorites.

In Short
Across the street from the Howard El station, this long, narrow room serves as both social center and dining spot for laid-back cabdrivers craving dishes from their homelands. Island-inspired posters and ornaments adorn the salmon-colored walls; seating is at tight, two-person booths. The menu includes specialties like fried goat or griot (a traditional Haitian pork dish), plus generous sides of fried plantains and red beans and rice.
