The taste of Jamaicas countryside has come to Queens Village

meat dishes and desserts that supply quality foods that are "so good its got to
be Jamaican," as their slogan emphasizes.
Since its grand-opening in December, the cozy establishment has gained
wide-recognition with growing delivery requests from the South Jamaica area
An 8 a.m. opening allows time for a choice of six varieties of
breakfast porridge like banana, peanut and hominy corn and other early morning delights
such as ackee and saltfish, rundown which is salt mackerel simmered in coconut milk
or stewed liver.
Hot beverages, milo, horlicks and Ovaltine are undoubtedly country
tastes everyone should try in addition to homemade juices, sorrel, carrot juice and sea
moss for the completion of a hearty lunch or dinner.
Wheres the meat?
Chicken, pork, goat, and seafood including roast fish Port Royal style,
bring the meat of the matter out of the Caribbean.
Vegetarians have a special place at the new establishment, which offers
dishes to suit special dietary needs.
After dinner, ask for a pint of Taste of the Tropics ice cream to go,
or various cakes carrot is my favorite.

They can be found at "Country Style"- a grand choice in
Jamaican cuisine.
