 I went to Jamaica, Jamaica Restaurant last Saturday night.  I had read
 someone's post on this bboard a while back and decided to try it since
 my parents were in town.  We were the only people in there and the place
 almost looks like a dive from the outside.

 But the food is excellent.  I had Jerk Chicken, my mom had Curry
 Chicken, and my dad had some shrimp stir fry thing.  All of the food was
 good.  The owner/cook came out and talked with us awhile about-well
 everything it seemed like.  The meals came with ordinary bread and a
 salad and was about $7-8 a person.

 I recommend this place to anyone who dares to park down on 5th Avenue. I
 personally recommend the Jerk Chicken.  It was fairly hot, and the
 chicken fell off of the bones.  I have also had they meat patties (kind
 of like a meat pastry).  They normally just serve these at lunch.  These
 things are fantastic.
