If you want a real Jamaican dinner without all the formalities, be sure to go to "one mile", otherwise known as Uprising Bar and Cafe. No signs to it, you have to ask the locals. Jeanne runs it, and tell her "teacher" sent you. Two of you can eat and drink for about $10, and the food is better than the tourist restaurants. You'll get a limited menu, but ask what she has, and get either large or small, and eat at the bar right next to the kitchen. Drinks are more than reasonable, and with the food you'll get the veggies and dumplings that the Jamaican's have as part of their cuisine, but the tourists don't get.
