Caribbean restaurant - Irie Kaya
1/15/2009 at 2:58 PM
I noticed that we have a Caribbean restaurant opening tomorrow called Irie Kaya in the mini mall across from Superstore. They were previously in a tough spot at the old Jerry's Bistro location in 2006.
I had a chat with it's owner Marba Taylor this afternoon and it sounds like it's going to be a welcome addition.
Marba has been to Jamaica a ton of times over her life and has made a point of staying with the locals rather than at the resorts. When she's stayed there the locals have taught her the Jamaican way of cooking.
Some of what you can order include:
Roti, Jamaican patties and jerk chicken.
They have seating for 12 in addition to offering takeout.
Will be interesting to hear thoughts from folks that have eaten there!
