| - Mr. Patty/Pattie is a stone's throw away from my aunt's place but I've never actually stepped foot into their shop till this trip. My cousin absolutely loves this place and always brings back a dozen or two bags back home with her. For those that don't know, they specialize in Jamaican patties, which you can get either hot or cold.
The main menu is all about the patties but there is also roti, desserts and drinks. Specials menu is only available Friday and Saturday. Jerk chicken, jerk pork, curry goat and oxtail! Wish I tried one of them out.
For hot patties, there's a chart for you to figure out their costs. 1 patty = $1.75, 6 patties = $10.50. Not sure why you don't get a deal ordering more but c'est la vie. If you buy them cold, it's $13.00/dozen. There's also the cocktail (mini party) size option.
Three options to choose from: chicken, beef and vegetarian. You can tell the chicken from beef as the former has a little red marking on one of the corners.
- Dozen cold patties ($13.00) - six chicken and six beef to share with the fam jam. Pop them into the oven and they're just like new. The beef filling was hands down the better choice. Nice blimp of heat, incredibly flaky and tender. They make them fresh everyday and it's tasty because they use lard. So not the healthiest option but hey, that's why you share.
I haven't tried any other Jamaican/Caribbean places in the city but this family run shop is worth the trek out west.
