I don't think we've had a problem in recent years waiting for food.
But, I'll relate a story about my first trip to Negril in Feb. 1998 when we had lunch at a restaurant on the "land" side near Samsara one day.
Our friend wanted an egg and toast.
That sent the entire restaurant into a tizzy.
A little boy was dispatched to the store to buy an egg and he ran from the property down One Love Drive and was back about 15minutes later.
Then the egg had to be prepared, and when the rest of us finished our lunch, the egg was finally delivered to our friend.
We laugh to this day because the toast and coffee was like 3 U.S. dollars and the single egg was 4 dollars more.
We always joke about 4 dollar eggs.
