GOLDEN KRUST CARIBBEAN BAKERY & GRILL – Restaurant

Golden Krust on North University Drive gives Tamarac a proper Jamaican counter. Patties first — beef, spicy beef, chicken or vegetarian in that flaky signature pastry — with coco bread to wrap them. Then the hot trays: jerk chicken, oxtail braised into its own gravy, curry goat, brown stew chicken, rice and peas. Spice bun, hard dough bread and carrot cake sit on the bakery side. The consistent word from regulars is that the seasoning lands and the portions are honest, which is most of what you want from a lunch stop. Simple, quick, satisfying.
