After arriving back in Port of Spain to finish my epic trip through Trinidad and Tobago, I did something I’d been told I needed to do from the very beginning…eat some KFC! Come with me as I experience Trinidadian fried chicken at KFC in Port of Spain, Trinidad!
KFC in Trinidad was ranked the tastiest KFC on Earth, so I was excited to try it out! There are 16 locations in total on the island. There, I met their marketing manager, Jillian, who would let me try their famous chicken!

Inside, it looks like a typical KFC, but they do something different here: all of their chicken is fresh, never frozen. It’s brought in fresh every day!
KFC uses 11 special herbs and spices in their original recipe. In the kitchen, I watched them flour and fry some original chicken. It fries in the pressure fryer for 16 minutes and it’s ready to go!
Then, I saw them make some spicy breading mix with 25 pounds of flour and their spice mixture. The flour looks more yellow once the spices are completely incorporated. Then, they add the chicken to it!
They have making the chicken down to a science! Depending on what you order, it’s cooked for a certain number of minutes and dredged a certain number of times. That way, no matter what you order, it comes out perfect every time!
We got an order of their original recipe, as well as the hot and spicy, which is what the KFC in Trinidad is known for. The original with 11 herbs and spices was juicy and crispy. I loved the crispiness of the batter. It’s the same recipe everywhere!
I had some pepper sauce with it, which was glazy and hot, but not unbearable.
Then, we jumped on the hot & spicy, which also had a doable level of spice. The pepper sauce was hotter, for sure. It was a spicier version of the original!
Then, Jillian mixed together some ketchup, mustard, and pepper sauce, which was amazing together with the chicken. What a combination of sweetness and heat! The ketchup was different from the ketchup in the U.S. It was sweeter!
Next, we got some fries, corn on the cob, buttermilk biscuits, and Trini coleslaw. I started with the biscuit, which was brown and crispy on the outside and fluffy in the middle. They finished it with some butter!
The fries were perfectly salted and crispy. They were fantastic in the sauce mixture. Then, I tried some of the Trini coleslaw on the biscuit. I loved the hot biscuit with the cold and crunchy coleslaw. It wasn’t too wet or too dry.
The corn on the cob was super buttery and very tasty. It was delicious!
Next, they brought us the Zinger, a chicken sandwich made with a spicy fried white meat filet, mayo, and lettuce. I liked that it didn’t have tomato on it, which makes the sandwich soggy. I liked adding more coleslaw onto it!
The Zinger was developed in Trinidad and Tobago in 1984, and it’s now available in over 100 KFCs around the world! I loved the light amount of mayo and lettuce. Adding the pepper sauce was amazing, too!
Then, Jillian gave me a KFC Carnival sweatshirt with a bucket with a steel pan on top.
Finally, we finished with a scorching hot sweet apple pie! It was straight out of the fryer, but was flaky with a gooey interior.

About Me:
My name is David Hoffmann. Since starting David’s Been Here in 2008, I have traveled to over 1,300 destinations in 88 countries to experience and document unique cultures on my UA-cam channel, travel blog, and social media.
I highlight culture and historical sites, but my passion is food! I love to experience and showcase the different flavors each destination has to offer, from casual street food to gourmet restaurant dining.
Where have you been?
P.S. Thank you for watching my videos and subscribing!
A few years ago I was chatting with a new co-worker here in Toronto and asked where he was from. He said Hong Kong. He asked where I was from. I said Trinidad. He then said "OH! Best KFC in the world!" So I asked when he'd been to Trinidad. He said "I've never been, but I'm a foodie, every foodie knows Trinidad has the best KFC in the world!"
That's crazy 😆
lool doh let jamaicans hear that nah
Imagine that ...only in TNT you can take some one else's thing and make it even better.
wow thats incredible! So I need to go to Jamaica to compare them two :)
@@Davidsbeenhere trust me Bro I had both...Jam rock is up there with there KFC but Trini Win hands down..but u be the judge. Whispering they don't have doubles lol
Jillian did a great job explaining everything local KFC. KFC couldn't of have a better marketing manager for KFC T&T. 👏.
She was amazing!!!!
Also well spoken.
Well spoken, smart and gorgeous too
Ouhooooo aaahaaaaaa hmmmm hmmmm... david expression
I didn't even see this comment and I posted a similar reply..It's so true.She did a epic Job..Beautiful..well spoken...and no misinformation and she did it with a Balance...if you never Had Trini KFC she made you feel for it.
Trinis have been dying for this video for ages
Now i have seen it all. David enjoying KFC in Trinidad. He is now an official Trini.
To the bone, love it
Yesss
Yerrrr I’m just a 21 year old Mexican trying to get out the hood 💯 i smoke weed on my UA-cam channel & i did a Mukbang inside Lowes🍔🥶
@@SevenHunnid lool didnt expect to see u hear aswell hahaha
Lol yeah Trini
As someone who's worked as a cook at KFC I can assure you that all the patience shown in this video to make the chicken is only for the video.
It is crispy and tasty compare to what we have here
Haha factss 💯
Was now about to rain on their parade ......so fake
i worked in a KFC express at Madison Square Garden in the 90s and your correct its not as perfect as this as it was busy all the time specially with sporting events and all kinda shows daily so don't believe the hype i moved back to Trinidad as a adult an its true our KFC is the best
It's a reason it's the best kfc in the world sorry to rain on your parade but the video portrays the real deal in this kfc in trinidad 🇹🇹.
Now everything makes sense, there is a process to KFC in Trinidad and Tobago. That's why it tastes so good. Proud that Hot and Spicy and the Zinger was born and breed here. Jillan you did an amazing job well done too.
When was hot and spicy invented in Trinidad?
David did a great job here in TnT. He ate in different spots, diverse food selection, ate with different host and sometimes without the hat on but the one consistent thing in all the videos was the band aid on his finger.
and he always wearing TTFA bol t-shirts
JJajajajjaaja
I wish he came to towns restaurant in port of spain
Your episodes on our country Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹 were great ...Showcasing our cuisine, culture and craft was exceptional. Can't stop watching.
he is very good at what he does, I agree with this series
trini and tobago is a paradise
I am so proud of our country, Trinidad & Tobago. Give us a chance,
might take us the entire year touring and tasting showing off our heritage and cultures😍💯🙏🏽
David's kfc host was sooooo beautiful. Awesome job from Jamaica.
Jillian was a knowledgeable host. She did a great job showcasing KFC
The lady was awesome in explaining everything, the workers friendly, and glad you got to have Trini KFC which I saw you enjoyed, Thanks and stay safe on all your travels.
Trinidad kfc really is the best I've ever had especially with their special hot sauce and u don't find anywhere else
Lol i had no idea trinidad had the best kfc in the world nor that the zinger sandwich was invented here. Good to know. Great hostess/staff. So much precision and technology involved in cooking. I definitely will try if I'm ever near that branch. Great video as usual. Gonna mis your trini videos but will watch all your others as well. Hopefully you return and try more foods all over trinidad & tobago.
Good day, David I must say thank you for showcasing Trinidad and Tobago food and culture in a way it should have been done you and Jason did a great job. it has been awhile since Trinidad and Tobago have not been viewed this way. My name is Derwin. All the best were ever in the world you are PS you are now a brother to me and my country
Derwin Gordon: Thumbs up for your comment and to David for doing such a great job. Thumbs down for Peru for not arranging a more comprehensive trip to showcase more of Trinidad and Tobago's culture and history (something he probably doesn't know much about), hence the reason why he put so much importance and emphasis on food. Sorry David, this is not a reflection on you because you accomplished what your trip to Trinidad and Tobago was all about. You were well prepared and l appreciate the effort you put in it. Well done. 🇹🇹🇨🇦
Jillian, you represented KFC and 🇹🇹 well
Great job Jillian 👏 ...you were the perfect host! Thanks for marketing our KFC the best!
When I was a kid I would beg my grandma to buy KFC and bring it with her on the plane when she came to visit. The chicken and ketchup from TnT just hits differently.
Yes trini ketchup is truly different
Thank God Swiss exports
@@jasminespencer2872 Right?! The ketchup mixes so perfectly with the peppa sauce. US ketchup just isn't the same.
Trini ketchup reminds me of Chinese ketchup. They invented it, actually.
Ketchup is the World’s WORST tomato sauce; the World’s BEST tomato sauces are made by Mexicans and Southern Italians
@@PSYCHIC_PSYCHO You're the world's worst tomato sauce. 😁
Yes indeed “We are very proud of our culture” 🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹
I love the sing-song accent ❤️💥
@@stillirise7813 we have a British colonial history.
One would say "Its just KFC" right? Perfection this one!
We all know kfc from Trini is the best 🇹🇹❤️👍☺️😋🍗🍗
Trini KFC is my fav,then Jamaica,Mexico and Costa Rica
You're spot on
I’m from St. Lucia, but I love 🇹🇹 food. I still remember that one week I spent there and the food was just to die for. 😍
Very educational video. Had no idea all that goes on when in the kfc kitchen.
I want a hoodie too. That's the nature of my Trini people. You never leave with your hand shaking....meaning we always gift a guest something. That is truly who we are as a people.
Wowwwww!!!..now David this is a very pleasant surprise! I don't know whose idea it was to introduce to the world's best kfc but Gawd I am glad they did. Our chicken is by far the best and the flavours are second to none. Since migrating to the US, and after eating the kfc here (crap) noting how small the birds are, I yearn for my trini KFC. Yes our ketchup, mustard and pepper sauce are by far the world's greatest gift to mankind. Zingers are waaay better than any commercial branded chicken sandwiches in the US. David please do go back and njoy carnival and more food that you haven't eaten yet.
So glad Jillian was here in this video with David, it was so refreshing!!! KFC is a Trini staple but it would've been good if he also got to try Royal Castle, the local flavour!
True, maybe in the next video he will.
Royal castle is actually better than kfc in trini
I always thought Royal Castle was better
@@MarlonR-mh6dv Maybe a long time ago but certainly not recently.
@@__Queen_of_Hearts__ tbh I find the taste of everything decline... maybe it's because I'm getting older lol. I used to prefer royal castle, haven't had it in a long time so idk. Had kfc once for the year and it was terrible. I prefer supporting the little small businesses or making these things at home. Would've been cool if David could've stayed in with a trini family to truly experience our everyday food
I am glad you showcased kfc...cos it really is truely unique and just so ubiquitous to trini life and culture.
The crust on the fried chicken...Omg....feeling so hungry 😋😋
Me too 🤤
Ok now I want to fly all the way to Trinidad and Tobago just for KFC!😍💖
Can you pick me up some kfc while you are there ? 😅
Trinidad have one of the best KFC in the world, so I have heard,it is nice off Jillian with the gift, she did it with perfection
KFC make it here.Trinis really hooked on KFC 🤣🤣🤣🤣.
Another great vlog.
I experienced this recently when I was leaving for vacation in Florida.
Boarded Caribbean Airlines and the smell that hit me when I walked onto the plane is like I now walked into a KFC restaurant 😎
Every passenger seems to be taking back a couple buckets of KFC.
Thanks to Jillian and the KFC staff for allowing David to talk and express himself with regards to the process and eating the food
Another awesome video
THANK YOUUUU!! It was feeling like the Jason show
Agreed it was nice to get a break from Jason too who always stick up under the man.
@@israel7400 the worst was the Tobago pizza where Jason behaved as if it was birthed here and the process is so unreal
Jeez
Love how humble David is
@@sandybeaches9952 yeah. He acts (or over acts) like he had never eaten any type of the foods they had. Hated the way he gets in David's face when he is talking and eating. His eating habits are so disgusting. He sticks his fingers in the food, puts them in his mouth, licks them and then touched the food. And why is it that he always want to share when he could have gotten his own. Can anyone tell me how much Peru spent on any food he shared with David?
@@JudyT868 in agreement with everything you said
Oooh yes...we have the best KFC. Its at the airport and pple take it all over the world. The cooking method was very interesting to watch. Want some now
You know how much trinis love their KFC....there is a special line at Piarco airport for travelers. When u land in Miami and or ft lauderdale, US customs always ask you if you're bringing in KFC...NO LIE..., it happens everytime🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂
Really?!
I hope they don't cause any trouble
Jamaican customs tell us say, no cooked raw or meat
And throw away we ham 😒
They gonna start charging import tax on our KFC 🤣
@@jasminespencer2872 When ever i go to Jamaica my jamaican family always tell me to bring a bucket of Trini KFC
Doesn’t happen in New York yet.
Hi Jillian u were a great host and David u took d words out of my mouth see u next year "gods willing" 4 our carnival experience and well displayed event
Safe travels David 👋
I didn't know our KFC was the best. No wonder foreign KFC taste bad to me🤣🤣🤣
I feel like we need to start calling the spicy chicken the Trinibagoian Style KFC and put it on all the menus across the world. I imagine seeing it a foreign country (here too) on the screen display branded with carnival graphics, a little 🇹🇹, Trinibagoian Style text and hot and spicy 🔥 subtext!
True but that taste I do not feel they could recreate that taste that is d original T&T taste only we could get I feel
@@karenthomas6233 agree...I live in the US..n the length of time between me Having KFC is determined by how long I stay before my next visit...I definitely cannot eat KFC here..not when I know what it should taste like.
@@karenthomas6233 If there's money to be made trust me they can find a way.
@@trinigodblessyouth4964 same here. I don't eat KFC here in Maryland. But as soon as I land in Trinidad I get some and probably eat it every day for the duration of my trip. 🤣
@@Brklyn_NuYawka that's the proper way..I usually tell who ever coming to pick me up to oder it when my flight get inn..that way I not waiting long lol
(2 mins in) If it's one thing about us Trinis, we love KFC. 😩😅 Hope you enjoyed.
i was born and raised in trinidad and these videos make me miss the food so bad! the kfc definitely hits different compared to the US....
Never thought I would see KFC featured on one of these videos but some of their local sauces sound fantastic.
I hope or at least wish that you got to try Royal Castle’s fried chicken while you were in T&T. If not, please try it next time.
Great job David for showcasing our food here in Trinidad 👍👍👍✌✌🙏🙏
Yummy David you make us dribbling here in NYC. Happy you are tasting all the delicious food in sweet Trinidad 🇹🇹👏😘❤️🙏🏼😋😋
Amazing video Jillian was de boss she did an excellent and exceptional job explaining everything workers super friendly restaurant clean food look great Jillian u lived up to your position my girl fantastic job David u got a taste of sweet T&T from all cultures our food is so diverse and infused into each other I am super proud
Mrs Jillian you did a fantastic job. Hats off to you and your hard working staff.
David hopefully Chef Jason Peru cooked for you as well he's a boss in the kitchen. One love from beautiful Trinidad and Tobago ❤ 🇹🇹.
Jillian is gorgeous!
Glad to see my country being recognized for something positive. Much love from T&T 🇹🇹
Lol,kfc
👌, Jillian was perfect at explaining...have to try from the west next time I visit
I enjoyed this episode a lot. Well-versed hostess. David's so cool!!!
Lisa Pamponette: Jillian was a breath of fresh air. Quite a big difference to the other guy who was always hogging the spotlight and talking too much. And thank God we didn't have to put up with him in this one. By now I am so disgusted with him that I can't even mention his name anymore. Jillian was very well versed in her job and through her I learned that the zinger and spicy chicken were developed in Trinidad and Tobago. Now I can boast a little about that fact. And it's true that people say that KFC in Trinidad is the best.🇹🇹🇨🇦
I've always heard we had the No. 1 KFC in the world, but the story is amazing. Jillian is wonderful at showcasing our local culture. Love how she made sure our steel pan was mentioned. Not sure who the guy in the end was🤔, but nevertheless another great episode. Keep eating your way through T&T David
Am 🙏
Guyana has number one KFC in the universe
@@joelitwaru45 lmao
Every Caribbean KFC is amazing, with the exception of Barbados...
@@joelitwaru45 what do you all call it over there "chicken fry"
Wait a minute - Trinidad created their own type of KFC style chicken - Hot and Spicy, we reach ‼️🔥
I real happy to see you enjoying everything
David you will LOVE carnival. It is one of the most fun things i have ever done in life
Glad you sampled our KFC, David...I always have some before flying out on holidays to top me up 💜...hope your tried the other fried chicken franchises 😁 nothing like 🍗🍟...great job, Jillian 🌟
Impressive operation - gotta try it one day - I’ve heard that it’s amazing.
Gillian should be the Minister of Tourism for T&T
Wow David you made our KFC look so unique. Now I want KFC too. Thanks for showcasing all the great food my country , Trinidad and Tobago.
Not trying to be mean only one thing is unique about it, the pepper
@@matthewdarby9290 nope. It's not just the pepper. It's the local season they use apart from the original KFC receipe. It's why it's considered the best tasting KFC in the world. You don't get those bragging rights just by using a single condiment.
@@rawhenrnh thanks you very much
@@rawhenrnh well i cant wait to try it
@@matthewdarby9290 where you from?
If you say the Caribbean, then I can understand
The taste tends to be pretty similar
But if you're American or British, I hear Trini KFC is a vast improvement
David you make us proud in the world market of food buddi love your
I'm so glad you're planning to come for our Carnival. I'm hoping you have a good experience especially with all the fun activities. You could even show your kids footage of Kiddies Carnival if they're not able to come along with you
As a born Trini living in the US, I miss this soooo much! Awesome job guys!
Seeing that you love trini pepper sauce David...maybe try royal castle chicken and pepper sauce as well don't forget to buy some berties pepper sauce to keep at home.
Trini kfc is different, many foreigners say it is the best
That looks like very delicious KFC 🍗 loving your videos so entertaining man
I loveeeee kfc. The videos are fantastic, I think we should try to talk as locals, being local we sound much better.
Yes David best in the world, plus the number selling branch in the world is the one in Port of Spain
Actually the #1 selling brand is Mayaro.
Yooo my g I love this country and I love that you did such a great job showing off how fantastic it can be. One of the biggest aspects is the food...so much influence, so much flavour but my guuuuuy no way you thought that green pepper was hot. That was like a 4 at the most my guy and see you use a fork on that chicken. I love it haha. Anyway great content, man! The one time I am glad Google suggested your video to me
He needs to taste that moruga scorpion pepper
thank you for this amazing video! I NEED TO GO TO TRINIDAD!!!!
Just stay there man. Loving these videos of Trinidad!!
29 years i eating KFC and never seen such good service ! good video David!
😂😂😂😂😩
I must say much respect to the workers...it’s a lot of work that goes into preparing and cooking great job 👍🏻
Jillian a super fantastic host... one can tell she is educated 👍👍. Representing KFC and TNT wonderful job!!!
Toni Singh:Agreed. Compared to the other guy who was in it for himself and for the food, Jillian showed what a true host should be. I hope he watched her because he could learn a thing or two from her about manners, courtesy, decency and how to be a humble and gracious host. Good thing he wasn't in this one because he probably would have overshadowed Jillian.
Great video, Trinidad is a beautiful country. Their kfc seems delicious, that lady represented kfc well. Keep up the good work David!.
👍🏾. Every time I head back home🇹🇹. It always on my list to get some even when I flying back must pickup a one for the flight.
Yeah boi David😁👍Enjoy🇹🇹👍
How in the world did I miss this video! Nice to see you enjoy the Trini style KFC haha! I eat it sometimes but not too often! Earned a sub too!
There's no arguing about your title David we have the best KFC in the world
The best!!! KFC!🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🇹🇹🇹🇹
I really loved this video but he should try the Churchs Chicken biscuit here in trinidad it tastes soo goood

YESSIR! KFC is loved by T&T. We couldnt live without it
Great job Jilly !

One of the best KFC for me
😋😋😋😋 well done to the host explain it well about our local KFC 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Yes I love how we are being recognized for having the best KFC in the world it tastes so so good oml it's the best thing we could eat here 🇹🇹✨♥️
The place is sooo clean
Trinis love dey KFC...
Enjoy the trini kfc you will be blown away you doing a great job in my sweet twin island it jas been a great joy to look out for your videos on your quest enjoy 👍👍👍❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Looks delicious ☺️😍
If only the usual KFC staff that greets you at the KFC cashier tills was THIS friendly- Oh what a flawless service it would be!
Wow KFC your methods use for frying changed from when we used to work there..quicker and easier... Great video...
That is QUICKER and EASIER!!!
That's crazy
What did they have you doing before?!
The technology has changed but not the methods so much. But it's been over 40 years since I worked there. Those pressure cookers look much safer nowadays. We used to make by BBQ with leftover fried chicken....
David go to Royal Castle next!!
