Here'Which foods do you like in Negril more than anyplace else?
I can think of a few:
I love the bread, nice and thick, better than any bread anywhere in the world.
I love the chicken, better than any chicken anywhere in the world.
I love the coffee, better than any coffee anywhere in the world.
I love the Ketchup, better than any ketchup anywhere in the world (though Heinz is good 2).
I love the lobster, better than any lobster anywhere in the world (especially at Booby Cay for the scenery, too)
I love the fruit juice, better than any fruit juices anywhere in the world ....
I also like patties, coco bread, festival, dumplings -- lot of stuff local to Jamaica.

Gerry IMHO. Had better bread in France. Had better chicken in Portugal. Better lobster on the Iles de la Madeleine but nothing is better than eating jerk chicken with hardo bread with a side of lobster, in JAMAICA!
Re: Here'Which foods do you like in Negril more than anyplace else?
great thread Gerry......I have to say chicken and coffee for sure!!!!!!
Fresh fish is what I love and crave when back in US. And calaloo is another item I LOVE and can't find where I live. And patties........Most else I can try to recreate (and I do try lol).
To me tomatoes are always exceptional here ALWAYS so that homegrown taste every time spoils me too. Same with banana, oranges, pineapple and mango......best I ever tasted so far :-)
Re: Here'Which foods do you like in Negril more than anyplace else?
Definitely the coffee. All of the fruits amd veggies also taste better.
Re: Here'Which foods do you like in Negril more than anyplace else?
O my where to start!! Love the jerk chicken and callaloo.....I dream of callaloo and have tried to recreate it but can't. Hope to find seeds this reach. Chances Pizza, Niah's patties, the conch soup I will have my first night there from the guy across the street from Rooms! Anything from Collettas or Montanas or Miss Sonia I love them all. aww now I've made myself sad. Pasta from Jah B's mmmm...... 15 weeks this Friday!!!
Re: Here'Which foods do you like in Negril more than anyplace else?
Nice thread! Jerk chicken and pork...nothing better in the world to me!! Ackee..sublime! Calalloo, top shelf veg to me! So the many fresh fruits that are the best. Dasheen, breadfruit, yams, curried goat and anything curried! LOL Lobster is smaller than Maine lobster, but somehow a likkle bit sweeter. Not dissing on Maine lobster...for it is totally awesome. But, love the one your with..lobster. Being from West Virginia, trust me, fresh lobster is perfection...no matter where it is from. No comparison to frozen!
And the patties...OMG, wonderful. Coffee, the best! The soups are always to die for...and the fish, well, nothing but the best! And of course, don't forget the combos of fresh fruit juices. And of course, who can leave out the rum! Use to be a vodka gyal, but I am now converted to rum. Can't wait to get back to Jamaica to enjoy all the food, people and sunshine. Soon come and counting the days......

Eating pasta at Bentley's with friends who are tearing up their crab, and the conversation becomes non-existant because everyone is deep into their meal......
And having a random phone conversation with GerryG while I am doing it..
Re: Here'Which foods do you like in Negril more than anyplace else?
For me its all the fresh veggies, they just taste so much better there. It has to be all the locally grown everything.
