| - Hidden gem alert, folks! Pass through downtown on I-277 and get on 77-South. I know, I know. I hate 77, too. But, don't fret. You won't be on it long. Exit almost immediately to West Blvd. and settle in for a couple miles. After 5-minutes or so, watch for Lawrence Caribbean to appear on your left. It's a colorful, little hut that will immediately make you wish you were on an island somewhere.
Once inside, you order at the window and receive your food packed to go. If you want to stay and eat, you can either sit at one of the few tables inside or outside on the patio, where there are a few more seats. Service was very fast and friendly.
I went with the small jerk chicken (white meat), with cabbage, collard greens, and plantains. Everything was delicious! The collards had some spice to them and the cabbage was well seasoned. The jerk chicken was moist and the sauce that accompanied it was fresh and spicy. The real star of the meal were those plantains though... Man, I could eat those plantains every day, for breakfast, lunch and dinner!
They had a sign on the door advertising delivery through Postmates. I have a sneaking suspicion lots of deliveries from Lawrence are in my future!
