JERK PIT – Caribbean
On East Fletcher Avenue, the Jerk Pit does what its name promises and rather more besides. The jerk chicken is marinated in the traditional blend of Jamaican herbs and spices and comes out properly seasoned; behind it sit curry goat, oxtail stew with beans and a jerk steak for the ambitious. Start with coco bread. There are salads, wraps and sandwiches for a lighter lunch, plus fresh juices and a short beer and wine list, and menu sections that run from Mama's Dutchpot to From the Ocean. Doors open at eleven, daily. Jamaican cooking with the heat left in.
