M & A Caribbean Restaurant, Del Prado Blvd., Cape Coral, Fl., Here is my chatter and 2 cents on the food.

First off let me warn you the folks are nice BUT are on Jamaican time. Which means they are usually 45-60 minutes behind in our time span.

Also though there are tables to sit down to eat, they are more geared for take out. Plus this is listed as a grocery store. There was not a lot on the shelves. Only to go containers were available.

Now my food. I requested the jerk chicken, rice & cabbage. $9.00. At 1115 AM this was the only thing ready. ( the hours stated they were open at 9 AM)

I have been to Jamaica and have had jerk chicken here..But never had it with a sauce on it. It tasted okay, I just not was expecting it.

To be honest this was just a mediocre meal. You can find MUCH better jamiacan food in Ft. Myers.

I will pass on coming back and go to Ft. Myers when the need for jerk chicken or...

Food is great. I generally get oxtail and have been back many times since, even though me and my family can and do cook oxtail as well. Portion size is good for the price.

One issue is that the chicken and pork are chopped up into fine pieces which I absolutely hate when it comes to food. The jerk flavor is really good though, so even though I hate the tiny chopped up pieces of meat, I will endure it at times just to get a taste of home. Jerk is one flavor that isn’t easily replicated through bottles of spices, etc. Prices are pretty good in my opinion.

The only other issue is that it takes a while for them to put the food together so be prepared to wait a while, this is not an order and out in 5 minutes type deal.

Hope...
