Jaywok › New York City
14 Guyanese restaurants in New York City, listed by borough.
Guyanese cooking mixes Indian, African, Chinese and Portuguese roots. Pepperpot, a dark, cinnamon-sweet beef stew, is the Christmas dish. Cook-up rice, curry with roti, and a Guyanese-style chow mein are the everyday orders, with cheese rolls and pine tarts from the bakery.
Nearly all of it is in Richmond Hill, Queens, along Liberty Avenue from about Lefferts Boulevard out past 130th Street, the stretch known as Little Guyana. Our adventure there stops at Little Guyana Restaurant and Lounge and Singh's Roti Shop. Further east, Sybil's Bakery on Hillside Avenue in Jamaica was on Tastebuds.
