Fishing for Compliments
Where:
Fish Pot Restaurant
39a Half Way Tree Road
When:
Thursday, April 25
Who:
Jamaica Observer Food Awards judges Annaliesa Lindsay, Rochelle Cameron and Emma Sharp Dalton-Brown met at Fish Pot for breakfast.
What they ate:
The ackee and saltfish, chef knives down, could well be among the best on the island; the steamed fish could make Hellshire cooks swim for their supper; the signature snapper burger ($540 for a combo with fries and a drink), while great for ‘fishatarians’, could pass muster in any fabulous hamburger joint; not one of the soups should ever be overlooked; the sides of fried festival, bammy, green plantain and ripe plantain pleased everyone, including seven-month-old Shay Dalton-Brown; and as if we could still be hungry, Chef Ebanks brought out the succulent hot coconut shrimp rundown and rice (only $385) for us to taste.
Cost:
With all meals (which are large) costing under $500, and generous sides only $145, Fish Pot is right up there when it comes to value for money.
The verdict:
There really is no need for them to fish for compliments. Fish Pot has ours!
