This
is a simple and very Jamaican restaurant. The cement-sided
structure was built in the early 1980s; it's done with a beachfront
motif and set within a grove of coconut palms and sea grapes.
Patrons include mostly a cross section of Jamaicans, including
the occasional conference of librarians or nurses. Menu items-everything
is home style-include complete dinners (fish, chicken, curried
goat, oxtail, stewed beef, or lobster) with soup and vegetables,
served politely and efficiently by a staff of hardworking
waiters. A separate bar area off to the side dispenses drinks.

Set beside the coastal road stretching
between Bluefields and Whitehouse, this restaurant is housed
within an aristocratic-looking pink-sided villa that originally
functioned as the childhood home of its owners and chef. The
cozy and artfully minimalist interior opens to reveal a view
of a formal garden and putting-green lawns that sweep down
to the edge of the sea in vistas that evoke a tropical view
of the English countryside. The owners include Ann Lyons,
a former editor at a New York City publishing house, and her
British-born husband, John Belcher. Together, they direct
a polite, well-rehearsed staff who prepare flavorful food
that's considerably broader in scope-and more sophisticated-than
anything else in the area. Menu items include locally caught
fish that might be blackened, New Orleans-style; escoveitch
of fish (a whole fish served in a peppery vinegar sauce);
quesadillas stuffed with guacamole; or curried banana soup.
Dessert might include Key lime cake or a frothy version of
Pavlova-fruit and whipped cream in a meringue shell.

Jake's
Cuisine Jamaican, International
Location Calabash Bay, Treasure Beach, Black River & The
Great Morass
Phone 876/965-0635
Frommers
Even
if the sheer eccentricity of Jake's prevents you from an overnight
here, you should absolutely dine here. Part of its allure
stems from its raffish charm and unpredictability-you never
know who might show up to divert and entertain you during
a meal. (Likely candidates include everyone from Kingston's
most prominent doctors to loquacious local philosophers who
will predict your future through a rum-induced haze.) Jake's
offers two distinctly different dining experiences: a romantic
and secluded covered veranda out back, and a much more sociable
front porch where tables are hand-painted in psychedelic patterns
inspired by the 1960s. Menu items are announced on a chalkboard
and might include pumpkin, red bean, or pepper-pot soups;
fish tea (a clear broth checkered with herbs); and conch,
callaloo, or cod fritters. More substantial fare includes
plantain chips or carrot strips served with smoked marlin
dip; a marvelous steamed fish in coconut-flavored cream sauce;
tender pepper steak; and a revolving array of spicy jerk chicken,
beef, pork, and fish.

| Carmen
Sutherland is the hardworking founder of this pleasant,
unpretentious restaurant beside the main street of Treasure
Beach. Established in 1993, it occupies a colonial-inspired
concrete building whose simple interior is painted in
pale tones of blue and pink. Named after one of the owner's
favorite books and films (Breakfast at Tiffany's), it
features such items as soups, roast beef, T-bone steaks,
and peppered steak, three different preparations of chicken
(including a version inspired by Waikiki Beach, with pineapple
slices), burgers, sandwiches, and salads. |
