Coconut vendor in UWI opposite U-WEE doubles in University of West Indies, St Augustine, Sweet T&T, Sweet TnT, Trinidad and Tobago, Trini, vacation, travel

St Augustine vendors on roadside

A coconut vendor sits and waits for his next customer at an intersection on UWI campus in St Augustine. His coconuts are small, large, contains water only, or both water and jelly. Customers can even enjoy an ice cold coconut if they like.

You need to step back as he draws his cutlass and chops the nut very skilfully right before your eyes. The coconut vendor is situated right opposite a doubles and roti shop. Most of his customers are probably ones from across the road who fell victim to the doubles and roti man’s pepper sauce. After eating a couple doubles and roti with heavy pepper, nothing touches the spot like very cold coconut water.
