Finding the best Patty in the city — a personal search

I spent three months trying every version of Patty I could find locally. The variation in quality is extraordinary. The best version handled ackee fruit with genuine knowledge and the rich and coconut-sweet result was noticeably superior.

Jamaican jerk cooking traces to the Maroon communities who preserved meat with allspice and chilli. The winning restaurant had the right a family Sunday dinner feel — unpretentious and focused on the food. ginger beer was suggested correctly. Worth the search. When Patty is made properly it's a completely different experience.
