It's always a wonderful experience to discover a funky place serving unique, delicious, affordable food. Caribreeze is as "chowhound" as you can get! Walking in it looked like just another Jamaican takeout with a high counter and only three or four tables. A friendly grandmotherly Jamaican woman described about six dishes (the menu changes daily). All unusual vegetarian concoctions. All Caribbean, with some Jamaican dishes (vegetarian patties were available). She gave me a taste of each and I couldn't decide because they were all SO delicious! Lots of "mock" chicken curries.I ended up ordering a large $9 plate sampler and it was a bargain. There was a giant bean dish that really knocked my socks off. In many ways this place reminds me of the now defunct Green Symphony restaurant in Port Chester, only I like Caribreeze even better.

If Caribreeze were located in Westchester I would be eating there two or three times a week. Since I'm over in Rockland once a week, this will be a regular stop. Unfortunately I know of no other restaurant like this anywhere.

Location: 42 North Main St. Spring Valley 10977. Phone: 845-426-2600. Set your navigators and enjoy.

Video from CHOW-TO

Superfood fads come and go, but the moringa plant (often referred to as the "miracle tree") has been used for centuries in countries like India for its alleged health benefits, including healing and cleaning wounds, preventing cancer, and potentially treating depression. For this episode, Guillermo visits Pondicheri in NYC, one of the first restaurants in the city to include moringa on their menu, to learn more about the green powder, and use it to prepare ice cream!
