It’s quite obvious she doesn’t know much about the island given she’s only been there since 2020. She hasn’t ventured outside St George’s much it seems. Her knowledge of the island is quite limited.
Ah go see you later is the most common way of saying goodbye..... With all due respect Ms Tamara please visit other areas in Grenada 🇬🇩. Calving is only a very small community in St. George 's. Please visit Gouyave in the parish of St. John. The fishing capital of Grenada. St.Patrick, St. Mark St. Andrew and St. David. You will have a much better idea of what Grenada is all about. Thank you for all the nice things you said about Grenada 🇬🇩 I love my Grenada Grenadian living in New York
@@eileenwatt8283 it's ok for most ppl needs. Is there room for improvement? Certainly. Only thing is you have to move like very early morning like 4 am or late in the night like 9pm then that will be difficult unless you hire a private taxi. Public transportation usually Starts from 5:30am to like 8pm.
Very true and as for Star Apple, we Grenadians call it star Apple also and have more or a variety of mangoes than Jamaica. I'm a Grenadian 🇬🇩 living in Canada 🇨🇦 and Jamaica 🇯🇲 is home away from home for me so I'm away or the differences and similarities. I Love Jamaica 🇯🇲 in spite of the negative reviews.
What! Sis go to the market please! Friday and Saturday Saint George’s or Grenville straight from the farms you getting everything mentioned you’re not finding. We love your Resturant we get the jerk and pizza every Friday 💛
She lives in st George's, u want fruit and veg ...she has to go to the breadbasket of the island of the country which is st.andrew....mangoes every kind u can imagine....spices grow wild. Living in the south doesn't give u the advantages to all spices that u can acquire.
Grenadians do not equate spices with hot pepper like some people do.Spices in Grenada is a general term for a range of condiments we use such as clove, nutmeg, pimento,cinnamon etc.To get a broader view of the food, people, culture and island, you should visit, explore, and spend more time in the countryside.Notwithstanding, this may not be easy due to you running a restaurant.
Right. We are the Spice Island because we grow more spices per square mile than any other island. People's idea that we put spices in EVERYTHING is asinine.
I’m a Grenadian but I live in the US. I enjoyed this show. Thanks for sharing. I’ll check out this restaurant whenever I visit Grenada again. So glad my Sister is getting immersed in our culture.
I’ve been to Grenada about 4 times and I love love love love love everything about that place, the people are awesome and the vibe is great, I would live in Grenada right now… ❤️
I appreciate your program very much That's a Great initiative I learned a lot from your many interviews. Your friend mentioned Grenada have six parishes but we have two sister's isle Carrlacou and Petite Martinique they are considered One parish so in all Grenada consist of Seven parishes.
The expression of God's Will to ever question is the Fear or Reverencing God; Example We always Say" Tomorrow Please God " or Tomorrow God's Willing". Blessings always my Brother 💞💞💞💞
This young woman need to discover Grenada especially the Northern areas such as St. Patrick's, St. Andrew's, St. John's and St. Mark's. We have lots of variety of mangoes and spices.
Hi Xavier, I enjoyed the interview, but as a Grenadian, it's obvious to me that the interviewee hasn't interfaced with a wide cross-section of Grenada itself and Grenadians as a whole.
@West Kingston, being a dot is relative. When compared to bigger countries Jamaica is also a dot. So, it's a matter of dot and a bigger dot. I have been living in the USA for years, a first world developed country, and I can choose to ask the same question you asked about all the caribbean islands including Jamaica. How much more there is to be discovered? But I won't, because I love everything that is caribbean and I Look for and respect the uniqueness of each island. So, please don't go there. It's unnecessary. One love❤
@@kadmountairy6997 Jamaica has more than 250 times Grenada's population. Kingston has 10 times the population of Grenada. Stop playing semantics. It's not that difficult to understand that a place that's so significantly smaller than Jamaica does not require you to meet the entire population yo get an idea of the people that reside on the island. Every community has generalities unless you are from the elite 1% of Grenadians or she is ONLY interacting with the elite 1% of Grenada.
@@Favouredandree funny how she said we doesn't "finnese". The amount lyrics we does run on women Herr most of them don't even study us because the women always hear it from the men. I assume most men she meet is at her restaurant so it pretty much is just business. So naturally most us will be a bit more considerate and respectful because she running her business.
As a Grenada who studies in Jamaica, I love the interview. Welcome, Tamara and I will check out your restaurant. I am surprised that you did not mention how much Fern Gully and Grand Etang resemble. When we say goodbye, we may say Later, Me Gone, Tomorrow, Another Time, When You Miss Me Ah Gone etc etc
we dont like pepper - how about Kuchela that's pure pepper lol this one got me :) I think you need to really explore food around Grenada Curry Roti, Rice and peas is a staple. Someone please feed this lady haha
Same thing I was thinking most Grenadian families have rice and peas (lentils, dry peas, green peas etc) every Sunday. Now pepper is subjective. It's different pepper here. It's called seasoning peppers and is not as scorch bonnet
Don't use this interview as a way to measure Grenada. She only had 3 years in Grenada. She needs to visit the country, it is different. Spice Island is comprised of 3 islands. Spices: nutmeg, cinnamon, clove, etc. We have hot peppers. The city people are a little different,
@@jenny-im9gc so correct if she wants the true grenadian experience she needs to spend some time aware from the city and go to the country. That part where she lives is very urban and industrial. It is called calivigny and it is basically just a main road. Not really a community to say. That's why it is good spot to set a restaurant because ppl transverse there on their daily commute. So it is not really a place to experience authentic grenadianism
Comparing Jamaica dollars with EC east Caribbean currencies is much better than Jamaican dollars, she seems happier in Granada, stay there you will be happy there send for your family too let them come and stay with you ,welcome to Granada 🇬🇩
You should visit River Antoine estate, the oldest and only water windmill operated rum factory in the Caribbean.There, they still make rum the same way as they did in the 1700s.You can also visit Belmont estate and the Chocalate factory in St. Patrick's.
She doesn't know much about Grenada, because she only been to st Georges go to the outer parishes and you get all the stuff that you get in Jamaica and yes scotch bonnet Peppers in Grenada. Next time do a proper research and get the information before you do an interview . But anyways it was still great you gonna learn as you go along.
@@westkingston3135 we understand that but her information was not accurate, she also said Grenadians don't cook rice and peas and that's not true, rice and peas is huge in every household especially on sundays. And we use the pigeon peas not the red beans, Grenada have so many varieties of mangos and other fruits, there is also lots of Scotch bonnet people in Grenada but she settle in the city and doesn't know anything much about Grenada because my neighbours back in Grenada are Jamaicans living there over 30+ yrs and they always say the both country are similar because they get everything here that they use to get in Jamaica... so I would love for she to go out and see and take in the warmth and friendliness of the people. She was wondering what to say because she don't know much. We are laid back and easy going no big hustle or bustle we roll with the flow cool and calm, you want relaxation come to the spice isle.
We love our little island the pace may be slow the people are laid back but so what they are friendly helpful and u can get most of the fruits and vegetables that are available on the other islands dont knock it until u tried it walk a couple miles in our shoe u may find that it fits and you love it
Big up yourselves Xavier & Tamara, Interms of cost of living, honestly if you start calculating the money wherever you live against the Jamaican currency (or any other country you reside). It can cause real worries & problem.
Loved this, she's definitely treated different than a local. So different but so similar. 🇬🇩 Love Grenada, can't wait to go back. My homeland. #OilDown
she haven't been around the entire island there is a lot of different types of peppers mangoes all fruits they have in ja they have in grenada and sweeter
Lovely interview, however Spice does not mean SPICY 🤣. It the actual spices of the island. I like that she enjoys the salt fish souse, u unfortunately no mention of we oildown . French cashew is French cashew and apple is apple, star apple is star apple.
A lot of that violent perception comes from the dancehall style music, we know Jamaicans are a lovely people. Our sense of humor is very different, a lot of our vernacular would offend the average Jamaican.
We do have rice and peas tho,just not always kidney beans,we use any peas to make it and we dont have it all the time like Jamaicans do.Its the beauty of how diverse each Caribbean islands are. Anyway i will definitely check ur place out in Calivigny,correction tho,its not in the city,but in d parish of St.Georges.Its about 15 driving mins away from d town of St.George.I look at a lot of Jamaican utubers and I love the vibe.Although am kinda scared of the island,I will love to visit one day soon.
Two million tourists come to Jamaica every year and enjoy their stay and leave unharmed.Many people from other Caribbean islands come to visit and to study without experiencing any violent incident.Some choose to stay and work here and again feel safe.Its a vast country with the vast amount of people being non violent and never experiencing violence.Only certain arreas have violence due to gangs fighting gangs.
@@steveross4151 kmt every Caribbean island have somebody in Jamaica..Jamaica has immigrant population of 95thousand.,30 thousand ppl shy of Grenada's entire population...I Used to do maintenance for the university..Alot Trinidadians work in the media and medical fields also
A lot of Little or smaller Islands seem to think that Jamaica is the same size as there Island. Jamaica is about 40 times the size of Grenada.. The lady said she's from Portland Jamaica, that parish is 3 times the size of Grenada.
Lady how can you say Grenada does not make rice and peas. Also our national dish is oil down. You need to educate yourself about Grenada befor you come to people Island and talk foolishness.
Grenada had 16 murders as the highest in a year for a couple of years. As of December 2022 Grenada has less than 10 murders. Jamaica has 100s of murders. Currently there several state of emergency in Jamaica. Saint Vincent and Grenadines which is North of Grenada with similar population is at 39. Trinidad at the south has 100s. Barbados to the east has over 20. So yes, Grenadians are not murderous. Jamaicans just like Trinidadians view the other islands as small and not in their category. Hence, the reason for their attitude.
Grenada was the first foreign country I ever visited back in 2009. I stayed in Crochu, St. Andrew, in a clifftop spot. Night time was something. Pitch black with night sounds and the only light was where we sat eating on the verandah. I remember: seeing the flag colours on the sidewalk, on walls etc; taking public transport and found it interesting to tap the roof of the bus to call for a stop; had "Oil dung" in a market and could barely move after, the way mi belly did full; the several spiced tamarinds I brought back home along with spiced mangoes; visited a chocolate making factory that was a former plantation in St. Patrick and I went through the whole process of making chocolate. I always have fond memories of that place and always wanted to visit again. 😊
I'm sorry but this wasn't the best representation for Grenada.. I do understand every one sees things different but there's a lot more to Grenada.. A Grenadian to say good bye would be something simple as ...Later.
we mostly grow the sweet scotch bonnet pepper’s in Grenada because it’s what they use in Grenadian cooking for flavor without heat. We have the hot one to but it’s not being grown as much and that’s the one Jamaicans usually need for their jerk chicken so she likely can’t get the amount she needs unless she grow it herself or find a framer that’s going to grow it for her. My grandmother grow’s the hot one’s but we don’t grow a lot of them because they don’t sell like the sweet one’s.
@@Junjo11 I was referring to the "sweet scotch bonnet" that @StillAReal1 referred to. I want to know if that pepper is what people in Trinidad call Pimento peppers. In other islands, these peppers are called "season pepper".
Just to educate, first off, seeing Grenada in 3 hours is only the mainland and it shocks me when many Caribbean people don't know that Grenada is a tri-island country, so if you try to see the whole of Grenada then you need to visit all 3 islands and that does not take 3 hours, period. Grenada never asked Jamaica for help during any invasion, check the history. Any stereotype about Jamaicans came from the media not Grenadians and Secondly many other islands including Jamaica stereotypes others but some so called stereotypes like I said are based on the media. There are Jamaicans who insult Grenadians and other islands by referring to us as small island but remember the African slaves never chose any part of the Caribbean but were dumped in various islands against their will so stop calling us small island to insult us as if we and Jamaicans had a say during slavery about the size of an island. I lovingly say this comment upsets a lot of Caribbean people who are not from Jamaica. Why insult us about the size instead of remembering that neither island or ours was chosen by the slaves and call us out about the good things of our islands?
These Grenadians talking all these negatives about Jamaica..If Jamaica was such a bad country why would we send our army to help when America invaded?If we were so bad , why is it we allow Grenadians to attend school here in hopes of achieving a track and field career🤔🤔🤔 People are so quick to mention the EXAGGERATED stereotypes of Jamaicans, but never mention what Jamaica did for other countries.
She is not knowledgable about our culture. Peaceful and no body gaurds to go to the hood, Our oildown is is the best and our neigbour carriacou has the best beach in the carribbean, The cost of living is better, So witout bias we love hot sauce ,
Lolol It's also an Antiguan thing, where they call you "gal". I know that song she talking about, heard it in Antigua. If am not mistaken, it's called mind yuh business.

Would love to visit all these islands. If only we could get back the days of Air Jamaica express island hop service.

Which part of the island is your restaurant
Scott Bonet dont grow in Grenada??? That don't sound correct.
Yes it does. Gotta go country for that
That’s the most wrong statement ever.
If someone wants to come to live and work there what is the procedure. What type of work can you do there.

Thanks for sharing.
she looks ok but she sounds she does not know much about that country she is holding back something
I think she is trying to be extra careful, lol!
Scotch Bonnet grow all over Grenada
Get your facts right lady, 1 US DOLLAR IS EQUIVALENT TO $2.68 GRENADIAN DOLLARS.
U need to visit the country side especially gouyave
Grenada had 16 murders as the highest in a year for a couple of years. As of December 2022 Grenada has less than 10 murders.

I remember: seeing the flag colours on the sidewalk, on walls etc; taking public transport and found it interesting to tap the roof of the bus to call for a stop; had "Oil dung" in a market and could barely move after, the way mi belly did full; the several spiced tamarinds I brought back home along with spiced mangoes; visited a chocolate making factory that was a former plantation in St. Patrick and I went through the whole process of making chocolate. I always have fond memories of that place and always wanted to visit again. 😊
You lived in the country that is why, tammi have to visit the country side to get a different prospective 😊
As a 🇬🇩 Grenadian she sounds more Grenadian than Jamaican
You are right, and I'm Jamaican
@@marlobrooks5998 😆
Can Jamaicans start a business In Grenada? Do they need work permit? I feel these programs never mention these important things
For good byes. We usually just say "later"
Some Grenadian local good bye: “Okay. Awright. Later. We’ll catch up.”
Honey Grenadian men don't beat around the bushes we come straight to the point
You could say you could live in Grenada because Grenada is one of the safest countries in the Caribbean right now the violence is not as much as
We say later
Nice .that was good
How can I contact you
I'm sorry but this wasn't the best representation for Grenada.. I do understand every one sees things different but there's a lot more to Grenada..
A Grenadian to say good bye would be something simple as ...Later.
Unfortunately that is the experience of her and what she know. Cant knock her like I see in the comments. Its her experience.
I thought all the island has scotch bonnet are similar.
we mostly grow the sweet scotch bonnet pepper’s in Grenada because it’s what they use in Grenadian cooking for flavor without heat. We have the hot one to but it’s not being grown as much and that’s the one Jamaicans usually need for their jerk chicken so she likely can’t get the amount she needs unless she grow it herself or find a framer that’s going to grow it for her. My grandmother grow’s the hot one’s but we don’t grow a lot of them because they don’t sell like the sweet one’s.
@@mikeyjames thanks for explaining
Is it the same thing Trinidadians call pimento pepper?
@@1marialatoyaScotch bonnet peppers are rounder full bodied
@@Junjo11 I was referring to the "sweet scotch bonnet" that @StillAReal1 referred to. I want to know if that pepper is what people in Trinidad call Pimento peppers. In other islands, these peppers are called "season pepper".
You havnt had our oil down and other foods it seems. Try to experience some more of the people ,culture and the food.
Tivoli: Copenhagen, Denmark. Italy ...
My best Parish!
Is it easy to get a job in Grenada 🇬🇩
OIL DOWN IS GRENADA NATIONAL DISH. NOT SALT FISH SOUSE. NICE VIDEO THO.
Watching from Antigua and Barbuda Chef Selwyn James ESQ a Grenadian.
Just to educate, first off, seeing Grenada in 3 hours is only the mainland and it shocks me when many Caribbean people don't know that Grenada is a tri-island country, so if you try to see the whole of Grenada then you need to visit all 3 islands and that does not take 3 hours, period. Grenada never asked Jamaica for help during any invasion, check the history. Any stereotype about Jamaicans came from the media not Grenadians and Secondly many other islands including Jamaica stereotypes others but some so called stereotypes like I said are based on the media. There are Jamaicans who insult Grenadians and other islands by referring to us as small island but remember the African slaves never chose any part of the Caribbean but were dumped in various islands against their will so stop calling us small island to insult us as if we and Jamaicans had a say during slavery about the size of an island. I lovingly say this comment upsets a lot of Caribbean people who are not from Jamaica. Why insult us about the size instead of remembering that neither island or ours was chosen by the slaves and call us out about the good things of our islands?
I can relate to the GAL name calling from Antigua and Barbuda. I reacted the same way. Who you a call gal?????
Ooooooh Calivgny... I'll look out for it
These Grenadians talking all these negatives about Jamaica..If Jamaica was such a bad country why would we send our army to help when America invaded?If we were so bad , why is it we allow Grenadians to attend school here in hopes of achieving a track and field career🤔🤔🤔
People are so quick to mention the EXAGGERATED stereotypes of Jamaicans, but never mention what Jamaica did for other countries.
Well, it was America that called the Caribbean islands to help the American army not to help Grenada. Trinidad did not join. Look up the history.
All Jamaican on your show has lovely teeth😁
Hun we do love hot 🔥 pepper 🌶️🌶️🌶️ s but more the older folks
South Caribbean food is way better than Jamaican food imo. Look at TerriAnn’s Kitchen…
Better..Sorry but Jamaican food has won national geographic awards and is loved worldwide
Then you haven't tried authentic Jamaican food
She is not knowledgable about our culture. Peaceful and no body gaurds to go to the hood, Our oildown is is the best and our neigbour carriacou has the best beach in the carribbean, The cost of living is better, So witout bias we love hot sauce ,
I don’t think you are quite correct about the men though. They are not bold like that
Lolol It's also an Antiguan thing, where they call you "gal". I know that song she talking about, heard it in Antigua. If am not mistaken, it's called mind yuh business.
Soon visit jammy restaurant 🇬🇩🇯🇲
We have star apple. Apple is apple. Cashews with the nut and then the french cashew without nut. Wax apple came from China.
