First time trying Curry Goat — completely converted

I had never tried Curry Goat before this visit and I wasn't sure what to expect. The smoky from the jerk pit taste hit immediately and made sense of the dish in a way descriptions never quite do. scotch bonnet is an ingredient I'd not encountered used quite like this before.

The a roadside rum bar setting added something to the experience — this kind of food makes sense in that environment. Jamaican jerk cooking traces to the Maroon communities who preserved meat with allspice and chilli. My server recommended sorrel drink alongside and it was exactly right. I've been telling everyone to try Curry Goat. Outstanding first encounter.
