Hahaha! Yes, dem mi good friends. If you have a chance, try a patty from Ali. You'll probably have to give him a day's notice, as he makes them to order. His juices are great, too.Originally Posted by yamon

Is this Allie, who is a bit down the road if you make a left out of Catcha on the opposite side? Was there back in July and his stand looked much smaller than it was the year before, and in much worse condition. He's a really nice guy, and I hope he's doing OK. From talking with him, I don't think the last year or so has been very kind to him. I plan on stopping by next week and I always get his fish patties and he makes a mean smoothie... but yes you need to order them ahead of time, as last time he didn't have the ingredients and had to leave to get them.
Have dropped by and seen Ali a couple times in the last 2 days.
His stand was hit by a taxi recently (not sure when), and it wiped out
the front of the stand and also hurt a girl who was working @ the stand
Cost about 800.00 not including the girls dr. bills
Mike, I have had his patties a few times over the last few years and they are really good and huge.
I will tell him Hi for you when I see him tomorrow.
Didn't know this, if it happened prior to July 2015 it would explain why his shop looked the way it did.
If you stop by, could you please ask him if he still has the tablet I gave him last year? I have an extra charger here for it (it has a special plug, not the typical charger that also works with phones) and want to see if he has any need for it... the one I left with him was was very short and I'm sure inconvenient.
HarryS, yes I will ask him when I see him as I am just going out for a walk.
When I arrived on the Westend last week all along the road from the Out of Town bakery to the Rockhouse,
there was a cleanup project going on - it was the best it had looked in years
hundreds of bags waiting to be picked up
and right across the street from this sign
and this @ a garbage site
such a beautiful country and to let it get like this
SORRY RANT OVER
HarryS, he does have the tablet
and yes he could use the cord as he has bought a couple cheap ones that haven't lasted
he asked if I could get your phone # and I told him I would not post it online, so here is his
Yes, that's the one. Funny how things work, I thought that cable was long gone, then I find it just as I'm about to return to Negril. Thanks for checking! I didn't want to just show up with it, and then if he didn't have it feel like he had to explain where it went. I didn't want to put him on the spot.
I notice the number is different from the one on his sign... I'll consider sending him a text, but have made a point not to exchange numbers with people in Jamaica... I guess I don't want to get caught up in a situation where I'm always being asked for something, whether its to bring something with me, or a request for money... I've read stories of how that goes, and while I don't think everyone is like that, I know with my luck, no good deed goes unpunished...
Did you happen to see his kids? The tablet was actually a gift for his children, but they weren't around when I visited last summer... he alluded to family issues...
And finally, can anyone comment on his mushrooms?
