Couple Keith and Judy Cyrus launched their catering business CaSpanish to create delectable food menus that stem from a Caribbean and Spanish fusion. Judy's cultural background is Dominican and Puerto Rican, and Keith is a Trinidadian American. CaSpanish's Latin cuisine gets a Trinidadian twist, with menu selections that range from empanadas, fried chicken and waffles, and traditional drinks. This includes empanada flavors of beef, chicken, pork, veggie, pizza, as well as Nutella, marshmallow, guava, and pineapple.
What makes their fried chicken and waffles stand out is the waffle itself, with the options of either coquito waffles or red velvet coquito waffles. Coquito is a latin drink that traditionally features a blend of rum, vanilla, coconut, and cinnamon. CaSpanish also offers plenty of coquito flavors as well, including chocolate, birthday cake, pineapple, cherry fireball, as well as morir soñando.
