Belgian Frites.

Lobster Quesadilla.

Ackee & Saltfish: with rice & peas and coleslaw on the side. (S) Rice & peas and coleslaw....*drools. Either there was too much pepper on the saltfish or it wasn't salty enough, I don't know.

Jammin' Jerk Chicken: with rice & peas and coleslaw on the side. (S) The Jerk Chicken was falling-off-the-bone good, yumm! (J) Mmm jerk chicken was so good. I think I could have eaten the large portion. I will definitely go back to try the other stuff like the goat!
