From fiery jerk
meat to inventive seafood dishes and
ubiquitous rice and peas, the Jamaican
diet is surprisingly varied, and the Rasta preference
for natural cooking means you can get good vegetarian
food fairly easily. Snacking is good, too, with beef, vegetable or
chicken patties the staple fare, and there is a vast selection of fresh fruit
and vegetables. Outside Kingston
and the north-coast resorts, international eating options are limited.
The classic - and addictive - Jamaican
breakfast is ackee and saltfish . The soft
yellow flesh of the otherwise bland ackee fruit is fried with onions, sweet and hot peppers, fresh tomatoes and boiled, flaked salted cod. It's usually served with the delicious spinach-like
callaloo , boiled green bananas and
fried or boiled dumplings.
Restaurants in Jamaica reflect the diversity of the people. Jamaica food has
African, European, Asian, and Middle Eastern influences that combine to form a
unique Jamaican cuisine in its own right. Restaurants cater to those seeking
both haute cuisine and down-home cooking, as both genres are dotted across the
island's popular resort regions and in some out-of-the-way mountain areas, with
prices varying throughout. "Authentic" Jamaica food includes grilled meats and
smoked fish, spicy seafood dishes, and lots of jerk (don't worry, it's a spice
not an insult!). To complement the food, many restaurants serve customers on
outdoor terraces so they can enjoy the Jamaican scenery as well.
At most of Jamaica's
cheaper restaurants and hotels,
chicken and fish
are the mainstays of lunch and dinner. Chicken is typically fried in a seasoned batter, jerked or curried, while fish can be grilled, steamed with okra and pimento pods, brown-stewed in a tasty sauce or "
escovitched
" - served in a spicy sauce of onions, hot peppers and vinegar. "
Jerking " is the island's most distinctive cooking
style. Meat - usually chicken or pork, but occasionally fish - is seasoned in a
mixture of island-grown spices, including pimento, hot peppers, cinnamon and
nutmeg, and then grilled slowly, often for hours, over a fire of pimento wood
and under a cover of wooden slats or corrugated zinc sheets in a customized oil
drum.
Rice and peas
(rice cooked with coconut, spices and red kidney beans) is the accompaniment to most meals, though you'll sometimes get
bammy
(a substantial bread made from cassava flour),
festival
(a light, sweet, fried dumpling), sweet or regular
potatoes
(the latter known as Irish potatoes), yam, dasheen (like a yam, but chewier), Johnny cakes or fried or boiled
dumplings.
Jamaica's water is safe to drink, and locally bottled
spring water
is widely available. For a tastier non-alcoholic
drink
, look no further than the roadside piles of coconuts in every town and village, often advertised with a sign saying "
ice-cold jelly
". Other soft drinks include Jamaica's own Ting (a refreshing sparkling grapefruit drink), Malta (a fortifying malt drink), throat-tingling ginger beers and fresh limeade.
Fresh fruit juices
- tamarind, June plum, guava, soursop, strawberry and cucumber - are always delicious if occasionally over-sweet. Jamaican
Blue Mountain coffee is among
the best and most expensive in the world, though the other local brews, such as
High Mountain, Low Mountain or Mountain Blend, are also good.
The national
beer
is the excellent Red Stripe. Heineken is widely available, as is locally brewed Guinness, which competes with the sweeter Dragon as the island's stout of choice. Wray and Nephew make the classic white overproof
rum : cheap, potent, available everywhere and best
knocked back with a mixer of Ting. There are plenty of less caustic brands of
white rum, the smoothest being C.J. Wray Dry. If you're after taste rather than
effect, try gold rums and the older, aged varieties such as Appleton Estate
12-year-old.

If you're looking
for a dinner date,
then I have to vote
for Kuyaba. I'm not
sure what the
general experience
is for most people
but for me and my
boyfriend it was a
perfect night. Right
on the beach, tikki
torches, wooden
furniture,
incredible food and
service. It was a
bit expensive but
the portions are so
huge that we split
an appetizer (conch
stirfry, at
recommendation of
server. Delicious!)
and the jerk chicken
skewers (2 skewers,
about a breast on
each, rice and peas
and potatoes/veg.
Homemade jerk sauce
so good I had to pay
off a staff to steal
me some, as it does
not sell it in
bottles like most
restaurants.) and we
had leftovers. So
splitting meals
keeps the cost down
and you get to try
an appetizer.I
thought Xtabi was
just okay, food and
price wise. Maybe it
was because I stayed
there. And I didn't
think Rockhouse made
for a great date
because there was a
little bit too much
service my liking.
Interruptions every
five minutes to see
if everything was
okay and can I get
you more water and
another drink is
everything okay
still and would you
like a dessert etc..
etc... Some people
like to be waited on
like that but not
for us. The food was
good though
