Later that day, I had Michael, one of my drivers, take me to Soldiers Camp restaurant. This place is very poplar, but not all drivers know how to get there. It's not on the main roadway, but tucked away in the neighborhood. Thankfully Michael did so we went with empty bellies to find out for ourselves if all the raving about this man’s food was on point.

Short story even shorter, the restaurant is closed on Mondays and of course that’s when we went. So no food. However I did have a pleasant visit with Mr. Daley. I plan to go back and try the snapper he spoke highly about. I guess you’re asking, why even post about the place if I didn’t get to eat??? It was a nice experience just going there, checking out the digs and meeting Mr. Daley.

After leaving Soldier Camp, our bellies demanded food. I let Michael select the place and without hesitation, he said KFC. This was my first time ever doing KFC in Jamaica and I gotta say the recipe is not only different from the US but tastier. I wanted more, but the line was ridiculously long and slow. Fast food is NOT fast food in Jamaica...lol
