Caribbean cooking draws on African, indigenous, European and South Asian influences layered over centuries, with island-to-island variation but a shared emphasis on bold spice blends and slow-cooked or grilled dishes.
Expect dishes like jerk chicken, curry goat, rice and peas, and plantain, with the specific style varying depending on which island or region a kitchen's menu draws from. As island cuisines, Caribbean cooking has a real seafood tradition, saltfish, curried or grilled fish, and dishes built around shrimp or conch are common across the region, so it's a genuinely seafood-relevant category rather than an incidental one.
