The wife and I leave on Sunday for 6 days of heaven in Jamaica. We decided we'd better get away for some romance and RnR before this restaurant gig takes hold in April. On a side not, we'll be signing a contract on April 6 and it will be official! Oh, and my brother and I worked things out so I'm back to the original plans.

This is our 3rd trip to Jamaica, but this time we're headed to Ocho Rios. We've been to Negril the other times, and I stopped in Ocho Rios and did the Dunn's River Falls thing on a cruise back in 1993. so we'll see what the east coast has to say for themselves. my guess is evryting e'll be irie, mon.

Looking forward to bringing back another 5 lbs of jamaica blue mountain coffee and hopefully finding some legit smokes as well. :ccool:


stay cool y'all, and don't miss me too much.

Have a great time! I dig the Jablum coffee! We were there on a day excursion.

I got so wasted on rum punch at the twisted kilt... That ended up costing me a ton in jewelry! :grin:

I went to Ochos Rios on a cruise a few years back. Didn't spend long enough there.
I did stop in the cigar shop by the port but didn't leave with anything.

We hired a tour guide in a van to take us around instead of doing the touristy packaged deals from the ship. I wanted to get some CDs and he brought us to a market with a rasta guy with a soundsystem selling mix CDs out of shoe boxes. Got some decent dancehall music.

Have a good time, and report back with pictures!

put together a gig to take over the food service at the local country club. my brother, with 20 yrs experience as executive chef, is going to be, well, the executive chef. we'll do bar and grille, banquets, catering, and restaurant.

walking into an established business with an established market share.

Good luck man. I am a executive chef at a private country club now. If you need anything let me know.
