Video summary
Press to jump
- 0:50Teezee introduces himself and explains how he came to open the restaurant.
- 2:42The menu introduction covers boulet, griot, Haitian mac and cheese, and djon djon rice.
- 6:14Alex tastes boulet with pikliz and plantain, immediately remarking on the seasoning.
- 8:18Teezee teaches Alex Haitian Creole phrases for describing good food.
- 12:24A passion fruit drink arrives with epis, the herb-and-seasoning blend Teezee uses in cooking.
- 14:12Teezee joins Alex to discuss his childhood in Haiti, move to the US and family-run restaurant.
Alex recognizes Teezee from the face on his own shirt before the food even arrives. That little introduction sets the tone for LATRYGUY's visit to Teezee Tasty Cuisine in Little Haiti: a first taste of Haitian cooking with the owner there to explain the spread.
The boulet comes with plantains and pikliz, followed by fried pork, goat and baked mac and cheese. Teezee also supplies some vocabulary, teaching Alex "bon bagay" as the tasting gets underway. By the snapper course, Alex has found his own wording: "The snapper is snapping!" Later, Teezee sits down to discuss growing up in Haiti and running a family restaurant.
"I Tried Haitian Food for the FIRST TIME!!" was the most watched of two new uploads, reaching about 116,000 views. It followed "Trying Cuban Food in Miami for the FIRST TIME!!", which took Alex through Little Havana for a Cuban sandwich, coffee and a visit to Old's Havana Restaurant. The two meals have drawn similar totals, though the Haitian visit is attracting substantially more daily viewing right now.
Haitian viewers are discussing seeing their cuisine introduced to someone new, while Jamaican commenters add their own cross-Caribbean greetings. Several also focus on Teezee and their hopes for his restaurant.
Across the channel, the week brought roughly 1.25 million views while subscribers held steady. Jack's Dining Room and ahnestkitchen had larger viewing weeks among nearby food channels; LATRYGUY sat around the middle of that group. Beyond Miami, "My Mom Made Me Dinner | Enough Food to Feed an Army!! #foodie #momscooking #homemade #homecooked" remains busy, alongside the Dallas tour with cousins TBPcam and breezylashayy, covering barbecue, seafood plates and cafeteria-style soul food.
