While
getting into the historic Kensington Market to search for an exotic yet
reasonably priced lunch spot, I was immediately drawn to a restaurant that
fuses both my cultural background cuisine and one of my favourite international
cuisines into one. I am talking about
RASTA PASTA, which is a fusion of both Jamaican and Italian cuisines through
their selection of pizzas, pastas, and staple main dishes.
Thanks
to this unique fusion of cuisines I was curious to check out what they are
offering. What drew me instantly is
that they have their daily small Jerk Chicken Special at a bargain price
($5). That alone drew my friend and
myself to check out this cuisine. And
what a great decision that was.
Instead
of serving pre-made, tough chicken, theirs was cooked on the spot, made to
order. The chicken was juicy,
tender, and fall of the bone, finger licking good, and the sauce was
tantalizing and has a great kick. The
meal came with an order of rice & peas and vegetables, which accompanied
the chicken very well and added a healthy kick to the meal.
I am
definitely coming back to this restaurant again whenever I hit the Kensington
Market area. This is Jamaican food
done right, and being a Jamaican descendant myself I am a stickler when it
comes to my own ethnic cuisine served outside of my house. One moment from eating here you will leave
out singing “One Love”, the next moment you will leave singing “O Sole Mio”. For that, I shall say, YEAH MON!
