One of my favorite meals in the world! I'm slowly working my way through all the Caribbean places around my home neighborhood (Prospect Heights/Park Slope), which has a lot of offerings, and my work neighborhood (Gramercy/Flatiron), which, now that Golden Krust on 23rd has closed, has very little, with the exceptions of some decent (and big) roti from an otherwise 'regular' looking deli on 5th or 6th Ave., though I try to avoid it because I'm not into portable food with a ton of bones, and Negril, which I've yet to try because it sounds like it takes too long for an hour's lunch. So the only places where I've had curry goat so far are Christie's on Flatbush Ave. in Brooklyn, Buff Patty on Myrtle Ave., also in Brooklyn, and the ubiquitous Golden Krust. I liked it at all three places, but I have to say that Buff Patty's, despite what seems to be a mandatory 1+ hour delivery time even they're so close that they're in walking distance and they deliver by car, was by far the best. I plan on calling Brawta, Islands and Stir It Up pretty soon for some takeout, but beyond those three, Negril in the city, and a few other places I can't think of right now (mostly in the Bronx), I'm at a loss. I'd especially like some suggestions for the Flatbush area and parts east of Prospect Park here in Brooklyn. So, what do you think? It's not the most popular dish in the world and, from what I've seen, does not yield too much in the way of variations, but it is one of my favorites and I'm sure some others' too!

Forget it's name... Sat May 03 16:13:35 -0700 2008 3621001 11694 anil 1 3654838 How about Annie's Roti on Rockaway BLVD?

She somehow gets rid of all the usual gristle and bone fragments, and the meat is tender and flavorful.

It's quite good.

I go out of my way to eat it here. It's not spectacular, just lots of it, all you can eat, for like $11.50 and very satisfying...
