On the very first day landing in Negril we were famished and luckily this place was very close to our hotel - literally a 5 minute walk. It was also one of the places I had noted down while doing research for this trip as it came highly recommended in many travel groups. Best in the West can be described as a street food restaurant that is right by the roadside along Negril’s Norman Manley Boulevard.

We are in Ocho Rios today🇯🇲 Miss T’s Kitchen came highly recommended from the internets so I was excited to finally try it out. It’s such a vibrant place with so much colour and a little playground right at the entrance😊 The hostess we met at the door wasn’t in the best mood though, not sure why… she barely wanted to seat us yet the place was quite empty for a Sunday evening.

Starting the Jamaican series today is the Pelican Grill that is located right on the Hip Strip of Montego Bay, overlooking the sea. It’s a family owned restaurant that’s been in business since 1964, serving up authentic Jamaican food. We came here for dinner on a Saturday night and didn’t find it too packed, which is nice. The decor feels very classic diner like, nice cosy booths with lots of room for big or small groups.
