Ocho Rios Jerk Centre

By now you would have realized that I’m a lover of driving to the country side and food. Put them together and I’m good to go, no encouragement needed. You might also have noticed that good Jamaican jerk is one of my favorites. Whether chicken, pork or fish, as long as it taste good I don’t mind, so naturally I always check out the jerk joints on route where ever I go.

My last outing took me through Ocho Rios, so Ocho Rios Jerk Centre was my obvious stop. I must say that since my last visit they have done some improvement on the facility, bright lively colours and thatch ceiling made from palm leaves. All in all, the ambiance is relaxing, encouraging to just sit back and unwind. Of course the bar right there also helps to lift your spirits.

 

We had Manish water, jerk chicken, pork and fish, some BBQ ribs, festival, bammy and plantains. I must say my favourite was the jerk pork. We had to wait a bit for the fish but it was worth it. The ribs weren’t jerk but the children enjoyed it. A bit of variety, something for everyone, this is always good for a restaurant. 

 

Something I’ve noticed lately, it that there seems to be a football or cricket field attached to these jerk stops, or is it just coincident. Any way, there is one beside the Ocho Rios Jerk centre and it does encourage patrons to linger especially if there is activity going on.

As usual I took pictures to share with you, enjoy.

Nuff Love.

Three Ministers

Three ministers - a Presbyterian, a Methodist, and a Southern Baptist and their wives were all on a cruise together. A tidal wave came up and swamped the ship, and they all drowned. The next thing you know, they're standing before St.Peter.

As fate would have it, the first in line was the Presbyterian and his wife. St. Peter shook his head sadly and said, "I can't let you in. You were moral and upright, but you loved money too much. You loved it so much, you even married a woman named Penny."

St.Peter waved sadly, and poof! Down the chute to the 'Other Place' they went. Then came the Methodist. "Sorry, can't let you in either," said Saint Peter "You abstained from liquor and dancing and cards, but you loved food too much.

You loved food so much, you even married a woman named Candy!" Sadly, St. Peter waved again, and whang! Down the chute went the Methodists.

The Southern Baptist turned to his wife and whispered nervously, "It ain't looking good, Fanny."
