Reflecting the different peoples and cultures that have inhabited the island throughout its colorful history, Jamaican food is a deliciously exotic fusion of indigenous, Spanish, West African, English, Portuguese, French, Dutch, Chinese, and East Indian traditions, herbs, and spices.

In Jamaica, you go to a Tastee or a Juici Patties for a quick, affordable meal. In the DC Metro Area, you come to Negril Jamaican Eatery.
