We might be famed for our tasty Jerk chicken but there are plenty more Jamaican delicacies to whet your appetite. How about some freshly caught seafood, lobster, snapper and festival or pork marinated with traditional Jamaican spices? Of course, if you really want to eat like a local, you can always try curried goat or Ackee and Salt fish – both islander favourites.

If you want to learn more about our island drinks, you can always visit the Appleton Rum factory or visit a local rum bar for a game of dominoes.  After dining the best way to wash down all that Jerk chicken is with a Red Stripe Beer or Rum Punch of course. They go hand-in-hand. Why not see what your bar tender recommends, my suggestion is a long yellow bird, or a cool Rum N Ting, or a Planters Punch; in Jamaica it all no problem! http://www.visitjamaica.com/things-to-do#cuisine
