A 100% Haitian company

Founded in January 2015 in Pétion-Ville, Pot’iwa Pizza has seduced pizza lovers with its unique specialties such as aransò pizza, topped with herring, and griyo pizza, inspired by the traditional Haitian fried pork dish. In addition to these classics, Pot’iwa offers around twenty other varieties of pizzas with flavors as diverse as they are original, delighting the most curious gourmets.

On January 13, 2023, Pot’iwa Pizza made history by becoming the first Haitian restaurant company to open a franchise in the United States. This first foray onto American soil took place in North Miami, Florida, where the Haitian community and lovers of exotic cuisine welcomed the brand with enthusiasm.

With the opening of the Brooklyn restaurant, scheduled for Saturday June 1, 2024 at 5 p.m., Pot’iwa Pizza is strengthening its presence in the American market. This new restaurant joins the four existing establishments: in Pétion-Ville, in Les Irois, in Cap-Haïtien, and in North Miami. This rapid and strategic expansion demonstrates the growing popularity of the brand and the quality of its products.

The Pot’iwa Pizza team is extremely excited to share the delights of Haitian cuisine with residents of Brooklyn, as well as those in neighboring states like New Jersey, Connecticut and Pennsylvania. By bringing a touch of Caribbean flavor to the New York culinary scene, Pot’iwa Pizza hopes to not only delight the taste buds, but also promote the cultural and gastronomic richness of Haiti.

The grand opening in Brooklyn promises to be a memorable event, celebrating not only the opening of a new restaurant, but also the extraordinary journey of a small Haitian business becoming an international culinary ambassador. Pizza lovers and the curious are invited to join the party and discover the best that Pot’iwa Pizza has to offer.

A symbol of Haitian pride

For Jude Vaillant, CEO of Pot’iwa Pizza, this new opening is much more than just an addition to the restaurant chain.

The design of the restaurant, the standard, the quality of the pizzas that will be served, the music that will be played... everything has been designed with the aim of making Haitians proud, commensurate with the glorious past of the first republic black people in the world

, declared Jude Vaillant.

The choice of New York also has personal significance for Vaillant. In 2014, he left New York to return to Haiti, where he founded Pot’iwa Pizza with his associate and partner Rock André. Ten years later, the opening of this restaurant in Brooklyn represents a true "comeback" for him, symbolizing his dream come true to bring back to New York something precious, designed and born in Haiti.

Caractéristique d’un lapin

Les lapins sont des mammifères appartenant à la famille des Leporidae. Voici quelques-unes de leurs caractéristiques principales : 1. **Physique** : Les lapins ont un corps couvert de fourrure douce, des oreilles longues et droites, de grands yeux sur les côtés de leur tête, et une queue courte et duveteuse. Ils possèdent de puissantes pattes arrière adaptées au saut. 2. **Taille et poids** : La taille et le poids peuvent varier considérablement selon la race, allant d’environ 500 grammes pour les plus petits à plus de 5 kilogrammes pour les plus grands. 3. **Comportement** : Les lapins sont connus pour être sociaux et peuvent vivre en groupes dans la nature. Ils communiquent entre eux par différents moyens, y compris par des sons et des mouvements corporels. Les lapins creusent des terriers pour y vivre et se protéger des prédateurs. 4. **Alimentation** : Ils sont herbivores, se nourrissant principalement de foin, d’herbes, de feuilles, de fleurs, et de certains légumes. Leur système digestif est adapté pour traiter une grande quantité de fibres. 5. **Reproduction** : Les lapins sont réputés pour leur capacité à se reproduire rapidement, avec des gestations courtes d’environ 28 à 31 jours. Une portée peut compter de un à douze lapereaux, selon la race. 6. **Sens** : Ils ont une excellente vision périphérique pour détecter les mouvements tout autour d’eux, mais ont une zone aveugle juste devant leur nez. Leur ouïe est également très développée, leur permettant de capter des sons à de grandes distances. 7. **Espérance de vie** : En captivité, les lapins peuvent vivre de 7 à 10 ans, selon la race et les soins prodigués, tandis que dans la nature, leur espérance de vie est généralement plus courte en raison des prédateurs et des maladies. Ces animaux nécessitent des soins appropriés, notamment un régime alimentaire équilibré, de l’exercice, et une attention particulière à leur bien-être émotionnel et physique pour vivre une vie saine et heureuse en captivité.

Haitian rhythms: Exploring musical and dance traditions

Haiti, a land rich in history and cultural diversity, offers a unique musical treasure through its captivating rhythms. Haitian music, deeply rooted in the fusion of different African, European and Caribbean influences, constitutes a vibrant expression of national identity. One of the distinctive elements of Haitian music is its rhythmic diversity, reflecting the many facets of daily life, from religious celebrations to moments of joy and sorrow. Haitian rhythms, carrying contagious energy, are a reflection of the soul of the Haitian people. One of Haiti’s most iconic musical genres is direct compas, which emerged in the 1950s. This catchy rhythm, coupled with captivating melodies, has captured hearts globally. The direct compass embodies the fusion of different musical styles, including jazz, merengue, and elements of traditional Haitian music. Haitian musical traditions are not limited to contemporary sounds. Vodou, an ancestral spiritual practice, also has a major influence on Haitian music. Vodou rhythms, often associated with religious ceremonies, create a deep connection between spirituality and artistic expression. Furthermore, dance is inseparable from Haitian music. The graceful and energetic movements of traditional dances like rasin, combined with captivating rhythms, transport dancers and spectators to a world where bodily expression becomes a living art form. Exploring the musical and dance traditions of Haïti is like diving into a universe where history, culture and spirituality are harmoniously woven together. These rhythms, passed down from generation to generation, are much more than simple notes; they embody the soul of a people and the richness of its diversity. Celebrating these traditions pays homage to Haiti’s exceptional cultural heritage and its invaluable contribution to the global music scene.
