Fleurimond who’s a proud plantain enthusiast, says her restaurant pays homage to her Haitian heritage all while elevating plantains from just a side dish to the main course.

“I was tired of plantains being a side dish,” she says before raving about how plantains are loved across numerous cultures including African, Carribean and Latin American. “So I wanted something that would connect everyone and show how similar we are as it relates to food.”

Are plantains pronounced “plan-TAIN” or “plan-TIN,” asks Deveen.

“It’s plan-TIN,” says Chef Fluerimond about the proper pronunciation. “Do we say mountain or moun-tane?” she adds.

Very valid point!
