Best little gem in the square!

My husband has to research a wee bit when he wants to take me for a special meal. I am dairy free and finding places that can accommodate my allergy can be challenging. It was my birthday lunch date and boy…he came through with one delicious meal!

The family that runs this eatery are just the most friendly and kind people. The daughter and mother both remembered my husband coming the day before to scope it out. They both wished me happy birthday…and honestly it made me feel special!

The meal was plentiful and absolutely out of this world delish! I had Caribbean bowl and had the veggies from the vegan bowl added. Hubs had the Caribbean bowl with a drizzle of the jerk sauce. We also ordered the friend plantains, sweet japlapeno corn bread, and a beef patty. Soooooo good! Also, if you like spicy…ask for the house made hot sauce. The after burn is glorious.

They also offered to make me a special coffee because it was my birthday! It was such a sweet gesture to make my birthday lunch a little sweeter.

Look…if you or any of your family members have allergies, you know the challenge that faces us every time we eat out. Darlene can accommodate vegan and vegetarian diets and is careful about the cross contamination. She and her family run this place with not only love and passion for what they cook, but concern and care for her guests…a rarity in this day.

Lebanon FINALLY has good food!! We decided to stop in for a late lunch and we were instantly greeted by the biggest, friendliest smiles, and the aroma of food cooking as both ladies said "Welcome In".

We were asked have we been in before, then the menu was explained to us. We all 3 went with a plate, which comes with 1 protein and 2 sides. I ordered jerk chicken, fried plantains, and mac and cheese. My boyfriend ordered jerk chicken, collard greens, and mac and cheese. His son ordered jerk chicken, a chicken patty, and mac and cheese.

The portions were very generous!

The jerk chicken was amazing. The fried plantains were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside with the best flavor. The mac and cheese was just okay, but better than any mac we've had from any other restaurant in town. My boyfriend liked his collard greens and said they were seasoned well.

The plate options rotate daily. They are open Wednesday through Saturday. And Darlene and Gabby are the sweetest! We...
