Spicy (not too, but substantial) jerk chicken plate with half a chicken served over a bed of delightfully aromatic red beans and rice (unfortunately a bit dry) and a slightly overcooked, sweet piece of corn on the cob. But the star of the show, without a doubt, was the chicken... Beautifully grilled / smoked half chicken, super moist with flavor that lasts and lasts. I have been following Chef Champion online and made it a point to stop in today, regardless of the rain, to meet him. I am so glad I did. The food truck staff were friendly and polite, and chef was outgoing, personable and even stepped out to turn on the outside patio heaters in the middle of the rainy afternoon just for me. Thank you!

I should say that for non-Caribbean folks the food would taste ok, but for me I think the food lacked effort. I must say that I was impressed with the bone to meat ratio for the goat curry.

They're covered in a tangy, somewhat spicy sauce, and are tender. I mean, finger licking good delicious. The other items of rice and peas and cabbage are good and are plenty to fill you up paired with the ribs. The time from placing your order until getting your food usually takes about 15 maybe 20 minutes. And the price for everything is bad, typically comes in under $15. I've been to a few Jamaican restaurants in the area and this one seems to be the most consistent and best tasting if you ask me. So I highly recommend them.
