Grand Cayman: Champion House

With such gourmet restaurants and food around it was surprisingly difficult to find some decent food for lunch nearby the office.  Speaking to my colleagues, coming to Grand Cayman and not have rice and beans would be sacrilage so I was told that the best on the island is at Champion House.  Because we didn’t have much time for lunch, Champion House had a cafe just one block away that served lunch, buffet style!  And when we arrived, not only was there beans and rice but jerk too!  I must admit, the beans and rice were good but the jerk pork was amazing!  I haven’t had much jerk in my time but I definitely plan to in the future!  The pork was tender and full of flavour from the spices and marinade, check out my lunch!

I don’t know about you but growing up in Malton, Ontario there was no shortage of beef patties being sold at lunch in our high school cafeteria.  So being in the Caribbean, how could I not try their beef patties!  And courtesy of my colleagues, it was the best beef patty I’ve had.  The crust was thick and flaky full of spiced minced beef – it brought back some very fond memories 🙂
