Thats top secret information
Fredas. Its one of the best because Columbia Univesity is close by and NYC pretty much caters to Columbia University because they treat it like royalty so if u come uptown thats my #1 suggestion


Feeding Tree by Yankee in the Bronx....... its more a 'to go' thing


If u want a place where u can sit down and eat and drink and listen to Cariebbean music Negril Villiage in downtown manhattan is my go to

Three that I haven't seen mentioned yet:

1. Negril Village in Manhattan
2. Henrica's in Queens
3. Tropical Jerk in Queens
Jerk chicken lo Mein :wow:

What y’all know about the buffet Jamaican Breeze off Laurelton in Merrick. Go there with 23- 30 Dollars because, your gonna end up buying extra on purpose when they weigh your food. It’s worth the mistake :ahh:

What's wrong with Golden Crust? I buy their frozen patties at Harris Teeter

I don't think he meant Golden Krust in general, maybe just that particular location; could be that particular area is always live. I didn't even know they had a Golden Krust in that area; I always frequented the one on Flatbush by Albemarle Rd.

How you like those frozen beef patties? I've never tried them; if I had a taste for beef patties I'd always go hit up Lee's Kitchen on Capital.

I'm closer to Cary so I go to Touch of Jamaica off Maynard

Lee's Kitchen is good but expensive AF and I feel like a damn refugee in that long ass line wrapped in some funny shape going outside the door. I usually cross the parking lot to Alpaca.

I may have to check that place out; I rarely go to Cary but I'm willing to go try it out.

You absolutely right about Lee's being expensive; that's why I stopped getting plates from there. Besides, if I want ox tail stew; I give my wife's homegirl $25-30 and she makes a pot of ox tail stew that I can eat off for a couple days. :blessed: Alpaca is dope too; my wife has been wanting to go back there to eat. There's not many Spanish places here that she actually likes. Mami Nora's is supposed to be opening up near us in the old Blinco's location off Glenwood Ave.
