Meet Chef D

Hi, I’m Mrs. D, and this journey started at a table for two. I’m the founder of Simply Caribbean Foods, and I’ve been cooking the flavors of Trinidad and Tobago for 25 years. My husband and I began this dream together, hosting cooking classes in person and sharing our food with anyone who wanted to learn. Then came setbacks, and then loss. For a long time, I didn’t want to continue. But after many years, I chose to start again, and when COVID moved everything online, I found students all over the world cooking my food in their own kitchens. Since then, I’ve catered over 250 events, taught more than 5,000 students, and built a community of nearly 400,000 people, all through organic growth. Doubles is the heart of Trini street food, and I’m excited to teach you every technique so you can make it with confidence at home. Come cook with me. This one is for him too.
