Where can I get peppa shrimp in negril
Big fan of peppa shrimp from the hills, always get some on way to Kingston. Had pushcarts version, not bad but not authentic. They used real shrimp. I prefer the swimps they use inland, plus the incredible burn they have. Any in negril? If not the trip to get em is usually a blast.
Re: Where can I get peppa shrimp in negril
Kuyaba has peppa shrimp on their menu. Whether or not they have it in stock is another matter. Much like Pushcart, it is not as authentic as the ones you buy on the side of the road in the little baggies.
Re: Where can I get peppa shrimp in negril
The ones at Kuyaba are not spicy hot. Maybe you can ask for them that way. I never had the ones from inland so I can't compare.

Kuyaba is really the only place I know of.

Sometimes you can buy them from a vendor on the beach (I was at Alfred's beach when I bought them). These are the "swimps" and are very spicy and great. You have to keep an eye out because he is not often around - unfortunately.

Thanks, next question would be where is the closest to negri that one could acquire said swimps? We usually got them in Faiths Pen near ochi from that row of food shacks. Is there a place closer?

Several years ago, on our first ride with Sala and Sienna (also to YS), we stopped at Middle Quarters for a late breakfast... fish and bammies (the real ones!) and peppa shrimp. I always assumed it wasn't a Negril "thing", since I've not seen or heard of them since. They were delicious!
Re: Where can I get peppa shrimp in negril
Yup, Middle Quarters - on the way to YS Falls. There is also some good soup on the side of the road, up there.
Re: Where can I get peppa shrimp in negril
I've only had Pushcarts version too which are whole (head on) saltwater shrimp. I too have been looking for the real thing whenever in Negril. No such luck. Looks like I may have to venture out to try them.
