Not too much quality Jamaican restaurants here in DE, but I'm glad to share my collection of 82 different rums with you. Wilmington is 20 minutes from West Chester.

Send me a pm.

Cheers - Tom

I wish I was going to be in town to link up with you. Too bad you aren't coming the folowing weekend since that's DC Carnival weekend. For food.....hmmmmm, I'm not a fan of the carribbean restaurants but that's probably b/c I get home cooked JA food at my parents place but you many folks like the following: Negril, Crossroads, Pepper Pot Cafe, Tropicana. For nightlife.....Crossroads or Bukom Cafe. Bukom Cafe also sells food but it's West African but curry chicken is on the menu.

Is it actually DC you're coming to or surrounding area?

Great news Bea! There is a good club that opened not too long ago in DC off of U street called Patty Boom Boom. It takes you right back to JA...it's dark, crowded, and HOT! The music is always good and you will dance til you can't feel your feet...or have a heat stroke (whichever comes first). Check it out here...

I really like it, but like I said, it does get HOT...and I mean like as soon as you hit the stairs going up the humidity hits you like a brick wall...but after you get up, have a drink and vibe to the music, it just doesn't matter :D

I'm sure it is only that packed on the weekends...never been during the week.

I have heard how hot it is in there. I was told Tuesday night is a real nice vibe and might just be my speed rather than a swet box. nevertheless, I will go.
