The Best Haitian Patty in NYC || 5 Buck Lunch

Most people know all about Jamaican patties, but less people are aware of the decadent, buttery deliciousness of the Haitian patty. Unlike a Jamaican patty, savory fillings are stuffed in a buttery puff pastry instead of a flakey turmeric shell. But knowing where to indulge in this delicacy is a little less obvious than its tastiness. Join host Cody Reiss as he takes us to the dankest Haitian spot in Brooklyn for the cheapest lunch our duckets can buy. Kafe Louverture in Bed-Stuy is serving up some of the best Haitian patties in NYC and we’re showing you why. That is, after all, why Thrillist is your go-to, be-all and end-all for food recommendations. You know the rules: We’ve only got $5, so we need to make every penny count... and we’ve definitely got you covered.

Thrillist is bringing back its popular cheap-eats show, but bigger and better than ever with three new hosts. Every week, we’ll explore all the best places to eat (that actually taste good) for under $5, and not a penny more. This season, we’re taking it beyond just New York City and traveling to Washington, DC and the San Francisco Bay to show you where to get the best bang for your buck. So if you need a break from the expensive, the chains, or you’re just looking for new places to try in your city, this is the show for you. Welcome to “5 Buck Lunch.”

Cody Reiss is a Brooklyn-based food writer, comedian, and actor making video and written projects at the intersection of food and comedy. Over the past decade, he has traveled to over 35 countries and all over the US, working as a cook, farmer, cheese maker, and cheese monger.
