A friend of mine Wayne and his wife Kristy recently opened “Jammin Wings”. It’s a Sports Bar and Jamaican influenced restaurant in Brooklyn Center. Wayne is from Jamaica and has some recipes he is using to give the Jamaican influence. Me and Vicki stopped by for dinner a couple of nights back. Wayne recognizing me as we entered came over immediately and greeted us at the door. I introduced him to Vicki and he in return introduced us to his wife Kristy, who is lovely and just as outgoing as Wayne.
As you know me and Vicki travel to Jamaica quite often and enjoy the kindness and gratitude of the people. Wayne is from a small village on the North Coast. The type of people we enjoy meeting and spending time with when we go. Not the Hustlers in the tourist areas. Well instantly Vicki was glad I dragged her out on a cold night as Wayne and Kristy immediately made us feel welcome. Hearing his accent brings back warm memories. Ask him about his brother and the chicken inspections and watch him light up. We chatted with Wayne for awhile as he explained his plans for their new endeavor. Place has had an up and down history and most recently was more of a Hip Hop nightclub. They are aiming for a different crowd and plan to have some Reggae artists performing when they get more settled and work out some logistics. They have a lot of hard work ahead and enthusiasm, I wish them the best.
We ordered some Jerk and Jerk Mango wings which were quite tasty and tender. Next time we are going to try the Jamaican Jerk pizza with sun dried mango and pineapple, and ordering wings for take home.
Congratulations to Wayne and Kristy. If in the mood for some good tasting wings and can’t make the trip to Jamaica, stop in and tell Wayne hi from me and Vicki. They are at 2950 Freeway Blvd in Brooklyn Center attached to the Country Inn. The location used to be the former Oak City Bar, and before that TGI Fridays. It is North of 694 off the Shingle Creek exit.
Very Irie and Soon Go!!
