I don't patronize anyplace that charges U.S. for food/drinks. I think it's an insult to Jamaicans
and people who aren't from the States.
I understand accomodations being in U.S. dollars- because that is always paid by credit card.
But when I'm walking around Jamaica with J$ in my pocket and go to buy a drink - when it's priced in US, I'm getting whacked for a double currency exchange. (CAN$ -> Jam$ then US$ ->JAM$) so I simply don't patronize.
Come to think of it, I find it ironic that a place called 'Push Cart' charges in US$
