“Blink” and you’re in Negril at this Jamaican off the Avenue of the Arts where “terrific” oxtail, fried plantains and other “island classics” go perfectly with your BYO “Red Stripe”
If you are looking for island classics such as jerk chicken or curry foods, this is the place for you. i was surprised to learn that they make a vegetarian carrot cake, made without flour...it was awesome!
The Jamaican heritage is traced back to several distinct and varied cultures, in turn, this is reflected in our cuisine. Our native island fruits and vegetables are skillfully fused with the flavors of Africa, England, China and the East Indies, to name a few. Peppers and tomatoes from the New World, curries from the East Indies, ground provisions and stews from Africa and herbs from Europe. The result of these combinations is truly a treat for all your senses!
As if you did'nt know or read already in blog posts and papers all over Philadelphia this past week, the Food Network star, Guy Fieri, has been in town filming segments for his show Diners, Drive-ins and Dives.
