Negril Village
70 West 3rd Street
New York, NY
Have you ever had Caribbean food? Well, you better try this! Every dish is packed with immense flavor at Negril Village. Eating out is always an adventure, so why not try something new and different? On this particular evening, I tried Sorrel which is a juice made from a plant that they cook down; it has a very distinct taste that words simply cannot describe. The Codfish Fritters appetizers are fried batter-cakes served with an avocado salsa. It has a crispy shell and a delightfully flaky center.
I had the Curry Goat Stew which is tender organic goat meat stewed in house blend curries with whipped sweet potatoes. I loved the flavors in the stew and the sweet potatoes are yummy.
Shaun had the Ackee & Saltfish which is Jamaica’s National dish served with boiled green banana, dumpling, and fried sweet plantain. This signature dish is certainly unique and with an abundance of flavors from the saltfish this dish is a winner!
This meal was so delicious that we were still reminiscing about it the next day! So if you are adventurous and want to try something a little different from your typical Saturday night out, go to the Negril Village and let your tastebud do the talking.
