Chaconia

Trinidad and Tobago’s flag hangs in Chaconia’s windows—your first indication that roti should be on your order. The indication that you should (try) and get it with richly spiced curry goat will be because it’s sold out. Or, if you’re early, on recommendation from the welcoming owner and chef of this takeaway and delivery-only Trini spot in Deptford. She’ll also nudge you towards adding tart tamarind sauce, which you should get too. Chaconia is low on decorative fuss, but big on being looked after so expect huge bundles of soft, stuffed roti and doorstop slices of macaroni pie.
