Bassculture Islands No 5 | Page 149

bassculture islands end nights after dark, there are a lot of local seafood cooks out there with conch, fish, jerk chicken, soups. A lot of local foods. It’s also right by the statue and school dedicated to Donald Quarrie, he was the first popular Olympic medalist Jamaica contributed to track and field, which we eventually went on to dominate globally. So there’s also some history there. Once you said An- thony Bourdaine, immediately I began thinking food though. It’s also in Harbor View where I reside in Jamaica, so of course I’d wanna support the local vendors. But aside from that, it’s good food, it’s by the seaside, close to the airport and it’s a truly Jamaican vibe. So I’m assuming people wanna know where the good eats are at. I wouldn’t recommend a foreigner to go anywhere I thought had too much of an overseas vibe. Five Steez: I almost said Hellshire, maybe Port Royal, lots of history there, plus I like fish, festival, bammy and dem ting deh. So a stop at Gloria’s restaurant would be included.
