Just as there are hundreds of thousands of people in the streets during West Indian-American Day, there's a seemingly endless array of Caribbean dishes from which to choose. Stands along Eastern Parkway sell everything from jerk chicken, roti, salt fish, oxtail, and coo coo soup to macaroni pie and coconut bread (among many, many other options).
