Ok everyone. I'll finally come clean about why I joined ETJ.....

I'm a foodaholic and I need to know the best restaurants in Negril and Ochi

Please help on my quest to a full stomach and fat backside

1. Best pizza/italian
2. Best chinese
3. Best seafood
4. Best Jamaican..... you can pick a few of these.... I'll let you
5. Best atmosphere
6. Best for other special reasons

In Ochi the best is this stand down this side street that sells steamed snapper wid rice and peas!!! Its' di best, but mi dont know di name of the street!! LOL

Ok..if you go through the town and on ur lefthand side near the oldest hotel in Ochi you will find it..but that is the best I can do until I return someday!!

As for the rest of the food, I will have to ponder mi memories and get back on this.

In Negril...the burger king wasnt baad
seriously though..there was another local joint that was great for breakfast..cyaan remember dat name either, but it was next to the church and across from a deserted resort/castle place. Oh..and it was walking distance from the Xtabi

Thanks....

I've been to both Kuyabi and Xtabi.... both very good. I should have known that our great minds would think alike.

Anyone got any other hot spots they'd like to share?

I've heard there's a really great pizza place in Negril. Any ideas. We tried Angelo's (I think it was called), anyone been anywhere else.

Oh god my stomachs rumbling!

I just would never have pzza in JA...I am from New Jersey....its filled with Italians here there is pizza on every corner in NY and NJ so....I stick to things like the fish,,,mmmmmm When driving from Negril to the YS falls which is beautiful BTW...we stpped along the road and bought escovitch fish and bammy from the ladies who sell it there,,,,it was prolly the best food I had there.....and an Ice cold red stripe to go with it! Oh and those bags of Spicey shrimp from the roadside vendors too.....man now mi ungry......

Don't get me wrong I'm not a mad pizza addict. Honest.

Just now and then when we're there we fancy a change..... and I obsess all day about where we going for dinner. I drive my boyfriend mad!

It's funny when you're on holiday when you've not got the usual crap to worry about, I spend all day planning breakfast, lunch and dinner, and what oufit I'm going to wear. I just can't help it.

lolol Well I don't eat very much so I don't really think about eating...D is always the one who drags us off somewhere to eat or he stops and gets food...he usually eats his dinner and the rest of mine....lolol I lost 5 lbs after my last trip there

Jamaica Tamboo in Negril claims to do the 'best pizza in town' though Ive never tried it yet.

I like Fatties near the Medical Centre for Jamaican food. Its not touristy and you dont get ripped off like the places directly on the beach. Oh I can recommend Sea Star at the West End too for beautiful food of all descriptions. The Jamaican chef did a beautiful Pot Roast Beef to satisfy my english craving.

LadyS - so right about Fatties. You get a good amount of Jamaican food for a reasonable price. And he runs out of a lot of choices if you wait too long at night to get served, so you know others are enjoying his food.

Another great place on West End is Chef Juniors, about half way down. Although his prices are not as economical as Fattys, he puts out a great meal and still within a good price range.

Thank you Lady S and Jamaica M.

I'm writing all these down....

Foodaholic...LOL

I guess mi ah foodaholic as well. Neva memba much bout di restaurant dem inna Ochi but mi love di restaurant dem inna Negril.

Best pizza mi have dere was at Home Sweet Home (West End)

Best seafood hands up wud haf to be Cosmos(beach) or 3 Dives(west end)
Best Jamaican is a tuff one!...Mi love Colletta's,Sweet Spice,Jah B's,Juicy J's,Ackee Tree,Hungry Lion,Ozzies,...Nuff ah dem!
Best atmosphere mi wud haffi pick Rockhouse(west end) and Kuyaba(beach)
Mi yard open 24 hours...dat special inna itself!

Thank you soooo much. That's a pretty comprehensive list.

I've only tried a few of those you suggest, so that gives me lots to go on.

I'm probably in Negril 5 days. So 5 places for lunch, 5 for dinner.....

Brilliant. Again thanks for sharing.
