and so has his ex-wife. They ran the stand together for years, then they split. However she continued to serve her doubles side-by-side with George, and loyalties were tested, and you had to choose which queue to join. Now "George's X", as she is officially called, has moved to her own patch at the end of the street in a... More

George has been selling doubles outside the Brooklyn Bar for many years. Doubles is like a sandwich made with a fried chickpea paste called bara and filled with curried chickpeas and topped with a variety of chutneys. Very ecomical and tasty!

A unique food, almost like a bean burrito (although better than any bean burrito that I have ever eaten). Optional three sauces. None of the locals were ordering the pepper sauce and neither did we. The tamarind sauce gives the double a pleasant taste.

Doubles are sandwiches of curried chick peas between two fried fritters of split pea flour. Sauces include sweet sauce, chutney and chadon beni suace ( reminiscent of coriander). This is breakfast in Trinidad and what a breakfast it is. Cheap and very filling, but super delicious! George X is one of the best doubles stands
