Lakay Venus is a Crown Heights Haitian kitchen serving griot, legim, diri ak pwa, and classic Caribbean-Haitian comfort food. A neighborhood staple for the Haitian diaspora in Brooklyn.
Home cooking. Soup joumou on Sunday tasted like my grandmother’s — actually a little better. Griot is crisp, pikliz has the right burn. Takeout is generous.
