New JamaicaN 🇯🇲 Restaurant in Osaka
[Brown stew Jerk] 
I’m always on the hunt for some good food from Yawd and I like taking my none Jamaican friends along for the ride. It has become something that they look forward to and these days they are often the ones to indicate that it’s time for another search.[Fried chicken] 
As I mentioned some time ago, end of year is drinking party time so I got a message from a friend to meet up for some liquid. We searched and found Jamaican restaurant that we hadn’t tested before and of course we decided that we had to go dig in. 
The website said that it would open at 6pm so I arrived just in time. However, the signboard there indicated that it would open at 7pm. I could see the man inside and judging by his movements and slight tardiness I said - must be a Yawd man, yes iya - a Jamaican restaurant run by a Jamaican 🇯🇲. 
This is content gold for a reggaesteemian!
Kevin is from central Jamaica and has been in Japan 🇯🇵 for a few years. He’s been running this little place for about two years. Prior to doing his own thing he was the top chef at one of the well known eateries in Osaka. 
As you walk in you get that island vibe. The place is small and can seat about 10 people comfortably. 
The shelves were decorated with spiritual flavors of the Caribbean with a dash of Japanese and international liquids to offer variety to patrons. I was busy taking pictures as Kevin did his magic in the kitchen,

Drinks are reasonably priced - they also taste good. I had a few so I can testify. 
The menu has a Jamaican food and some Japanese crossover seeing that a lot of Japanese people don’t do well with spicy food. 
Most dishes had a bit of jerk seasoning in it - this is in an authentic Grace bottle but this was made by Kevin- true Jamaican. 😀
Not much of a white rice fan but it’s loved by Japanese people so I indulged my guest. 
A bit of sweet and sour - one of the best things that the Chinese Jamaican community has given to us. 
A bit of Captain Morgan on the rocks causes no harm.
Thank you for stopping by the ReggaeKitchen. Just another Jamaican being : 
Check out this big guy as you enjoy the food.

Nice review
Thank you my friend - I entered some contest there in the past. It’s a tight circle to get into. I’ll definitely look into getting back into the various contest.
Work Hard and play hard. Down that side seem to have a lot of yard restaurants.
"spiritual flavors of the Caribbean" LOl like how you worded that.
HAHHA Grace home made jerk.
So dem two chicas not in the ting again star?
There are quite a few more that I haven’t checked out yet.
Yes man- spirits for the spirit.
Man , I don’t even want to talk about the missing flowers. I might do some personal projects with them.
Looks delicious, it's always great having a taste of home when you are an ex-pat. I've been avoiding Jamaican restaurants the past couple of weeks, you know why :D
😆 best to avoid them and wait until you get to the source! You won’t want any of that other stuff!
Best POST yet.
RedStripe $7 ish. Yikes

Give thanks 🙏 well,they do mark up the red stripes - distance and all that fancy stuff makes it a scarce commodity.
How good everything looks friend @missaj
I don't know Japan, but according to what I've seen on TV, the space reminds me of those restaurants I've seen on some shows. I'm passionate about cooking. The dishes presented are great, they look great in presentation and are certainly appetizing.
And whoever watches it from the outside, the Caribbean is present, Jamaica as a brand.
Thank you for bringing it in.
Thank you 🙏, foodies have to unite and share the passion. Respect for stopping by the kitchen!
Wow, every time I pass by your blog it provokes me to print the food plates to feel its taste, for sure it's 3d, that stew looks great.
Then go on, print it and test it 😀it’s as real as it looks and taste real good. Thanks for popping in the kitchen.
