  • The Best of Jamaica
    05_570641 ch01.qxd 7/14/04 10:06 AM Page 3 1 The Best of Jamaica Most visitors already have a mental picture of Jamaica before they arrive: its boisterous culture of reggae and Rastafarianism; its white-sand beaches; and its lush foliage, rivers, mountains, and clear waterfalls. Jamaica’s art and cuisine are also remarkable. Yet Jamaica’s appealing aspects have to be weighed against its poverty, crime, and racial tensions, the legacy of colonial rule and subsequent political upheavals. So, should you go? By all means. Just be prudent and cautious. The island has fine hotels and savory food. It’s well geared to heterosexual couples who come to tie the knot or celebrate a honeymoon. And Jamaica boasts the best golf courses in the West Indies, some of the finest diving waters in the world, and good river rafting. In this chapter we’ll lay out our favorite places and experiences. 1 The Best Beaches • Doctor’s Cave Beach (Montego sands are fine for families, though Bay): This 8km (5-mile) stretch of there are several (sectioned-off) white sand made “Mo Bay” a nudist patches where guests bare tourist destination.

  • A Culinary Travel Series
    The Caribbean a culinary travel series Rosemary Parkinson 2 NYAM JAMAICA INTRODUCTION 3 The Caribbean… something exotic The Caribbean…something fresh The Caribbean…something new THE CARIBBEAN IS HOT. The cuisine of the Caribbean is hot. From Bon Appetit, Food Network to Travel Channel, “foodies” have, and still are, scouring the islands looking to discover its tastes. But Caribbean food is not readily found. Secrets are not divulged to “strangers”. What has been captured in books and film is a “foreigners” view, far too often embellished by beaches, crystal clear waters and beautiful people sun-tanning without a care in the world. Rosemary Parkinson is here to change this. 4 NYAM JAMAICA INTRODUCTION 5 What Is The Caribbean? The Caribbean is made up of islands between North & South America stretching from Bermuda down to Margarita, Aruba & Curacao. Guyana, French Guiana and Suriname at the tip of South America’s mainland, Panama and Belize in Central America are oft thrown in the melee. Known as the Caribbean chain, these islands and lands brim with people of different cultures historically, traditionally and culturally. English, Spanish, French and Dutch speaking, each island has its own dialect – patois, Trini talk, kewyol, papimiento depending on the island. Each island has its own distinctive culinary flavours. Rosemary Parkinson describes and tastes them all. 6 NYAM JAMAICA INTRODUCTION 7 What Is Caribbean Cuisine? The cuisine of the Caribbean is individual, different. From South America food traveled to the islands with the Amerindians. Later, Europeans took same across the globe and back, creating a pot-pourri of tastes and stories found nowhere else in the world and influenced by: • Historically: Slaves from Africa, European settlers.
