Good Ole Country Cooking

Hey World! :)

How did you spend your Easter Weekend? I went to Ocho Rios, Jamaica for the weekend then got a lil greedy for more time so i stayed a lil longer ^_^. So much funnnnn, i really needed a break from everything i had on my mind and a break from school *throws confetti*. Anyway below are some pictures from my mini-vacay.

While in Ocho Rios waiting on my cousin to get her hair done, we decided to stop by Miss T's Kitchen, after seeing the sign on Main Street. As well as remembering i wanted to sample the menu from Restaurant Week but never got the chance to go there. Took a while for us to find it but when we did, we were pleasantly surprised. It was a cute little picturesque restaurant based on that "good ole country cooking" theme. Clean, nicely lit, simple decor restaurant with pleasant staff (in the beginning). The menu is pretty affordable. I ordered the curry goat which was really good. (I took a huge chance on this, because i have a fear of buying cooked meals that includes curried anything!) But alas, no worries! hahaha :)

Curry Mutton with Rice & Peas

Tender chunks of goat meat seasoned with Miss T's special blend of herbs and spices and simmered in a rich curry sauce.
Highly Recommended

 

How can you have a vacay without a beach day?

Scheduled Spontaneity

Hey World! ^_^

Can spontaneity be scheduled?
Two besties all dolled up, going to two restaurants and a bar in one night, in a few short hours with a subaru on an impromptu girls night (with the occasional 'passerby men' dwl).... sounds like fun to me!

Below are a few pics of what we ordered, tasted, loved, disliked and took home.

First stop :: Tracks & Records, Marketplace

Jerk Chicken Spring Rolls

This has been my craving for a long time. I wanted it so bad that i can't even express in words.

 I love spring rolls/ egg rolls but the filling in this was delicious! It was so heavenly.

Highly recommended

 

 Sticky Jam Asian Wings

My bestie chose this appetizer, which she loved.

I approve of these asian wings, being the wings-obsessed-girl that i am. Delicious.

Highly recommended

Piña Colada

 Not impressive. Less than impressive.

I do blame myself however, since it was not on the menu but i requested it.

(I guess i could give 2 points for effort, for making something specially requested)

 

 Then we headed to 'Gauchos' now renamed South Avenue Bar & Grill

Chicken & Shrimp Fettuccine Alfredo

This. Has. Always. Been. A-MAHHH-ZING!!!

Never fail me yet. A few bites of my fettuccine alfredo was savoured while the rest was taken home.

Ps* As confirmed or agreed by my friends and my sister, letting this sit in the fridge overnight and warming it the following day makes this dish even better!

Highly recommended

 

Mud Slide

(& my Cherry Juice in the background)

Chocolate liquor is the way to my besties heart!! Lol watching her with this was hilarious.

Next time i gotta find out a way for her to get one to go. This was CHOCOLATE-Y GOODNESS!!

Highly recommended

Hey World!:)

Fish and Festival - Jamaican style! Fresh off the beach at Hellshire. I couldn't even wait to take the pic before i bite into that festival at the top.^_^

Here's another reason why you need to get to Jamaica ASAP!
