Description

When chef-owner Carena Ives first opened this restaurant in 1994 selling the food she grew up eating, it was so popular that customers were begging her to move into a bigger space. Jamaican cuisine is known for comforting stews, like the classic oxtail stew that blew Guy away. “It’s luscious!” He said of the tender braised meat. Another standout is the fried chicken, which is served with a bold ginger gravy.

Episode Description

On this trip, Guy Fieri's taking a detour to find some not-your-everyday eats. In Richmond, Va., a jammin' Jamaican joint serving outrageous oxtail and fried chicken with true island flavor. In Reno, Nev., a sandwich spot going loco with the bird and putting a unique twist on the breakfast burrito, and finally, a funky place in Ottawa, Canada, serving Newfoundland specialties like a 400-year-old cod cake recipe.
