‘You can get it if you really want.’ With the words of this refrain and the hope of good groceries, The Jamaican Kitchen will visit you. In the magnificent harbor, of Road Town, Tortola, there are special goodies. And more. For, five days a week, fine food and variety reign nearby.

The spices we know,the sense of cuisine at its best, Jamaica can come to your doorstep. There is a fine system of simplicity that will do three things, Monday through Friday, without fail. The menu of the day will appear on your internet, true. The list is varied and predictable at the same time. Things you remember, once upon a time,and new things to try,that will delight the palate.

A phone-call will also do. You can check with Miss Diane what’s on for the day. Right up until early afternoon, two cooks busy themselves with the generous effort that ends up with you,the person who orders the fare. The dumplings find their way to delicious soup and the shredded cabbage decorates the salad and the salad dressing, well,it’s a secret.

Curry is a big favorite there,and here,I must say. ‘Manish’ soup is a new one for us, an old one for others. In some countries,it’s referred to as ‘goat water.’ Watch out for the macaroni. It will trap you,for sure. And the sweet and sour fish,with three choices to choose from, must be lovely. The spices blend gently together to inspire.

Order by ten  and there will be a delivery around noon. You don’t need to travel. You stay put and Mr. Kenrick appears,with a smile and a word of news from outside. It’s just what could be expected of a fine kitchen combined with a wise delivery concept. Order a drink or some side choices, ranging from salad to ground provisions. Delish!

So, a rare recommendation, a fine idea. While you may be busy with the work of the day, this small outfit is right there,right here, waiting to serve you. Just lunch,but lunch is going to remain a good memory for you, anytime!

  ‘Singing sweet talk, melody loud and clear, this is my message to YOU!!
