Come here for authentic Jamaican food, from the curried goat with coconut rice to oxtail and beans and jerk chicken. The all-time favourite snacks are the soft buttery coco bread pockets filled with slow braised pulled oxtail and Jamaican coleslaw. The reggae soundtrack completes that laid-back-in-the-sun Caribbean feel.
