Imagine food that makes you feel like you’re on an island vacation. Food that wows you with every flavorful bite and makes you feel warm and homey. That is the gift of the heartwarming food and hospitality that is Caribbean Gourmet.

Yonette Alleyne is the lovely woman behind Caribbean Gourmet. When she was young at home in Guyana, she found what she loved to do early in life. She asked her mother for a cookbook for her 11th birthday and has been cooking, baking, and refining her talent ever since.

Today, she is a beloved caterer with followers who will travel far to get her special food featuring Caribbean favorites like oxtail stew, jerk chicken, chicken curry, vegan curry, beef and turkey patties, and pastries baked from scratch.

We are very proud and excited to soon bring a place where everyone can experience the wonderful cuisine of Caribbean Gourmet six days a week!

Until we open, find her at the Baldwin Hills Crenshaw Farmers’ Market on Saturdays from 10am to 3pm and the Atwater Village Farmers’ Market on Sundays from 10am to 2pm.

Stop by to say hello and try some samples and you’ll understand why everyone can’t stop talking about her amazing food.

The best is yet to come!
