Exploring Jamaica's best Indian & Chinese Markets with Marianna!

We're with the ultimate Food Curious guide today in Kingston Jamaica, Marianna! She's known all over Jamaica for her restaurant's constantly changing and evolving menu. Part of her unique menu comes from her exploration of the many different cultures in Jamaica. Today we're exploring two large cultural groups in Jamaica....first visiting Pushpa Indian Spice (Indian) and Fresh Approach (Chinese). The variety of ingredients is amazing, I highly recommend checking these places out if you want to expand your culinary mind! Safe Travels back to France Marianna, Jamaica will surely miss you! 🙌
Bless up,
Matthew
Marianna has now moved on from her restaurant in Jamaica and is back in France, give her a follow here to keep up! (big things coming in 2024😎)

It is funny, I just learned about white poppy seeds today. I ordered some from Amazon. If you are suffering from high blood pressure according to some reports it may help reduce your pressure. I will use it in my smoothies. Not sure how can you cook with it

[@AnastasiaLUVSU]

Nice to see that when Indian and Chinese people move to Kingston they have a shop to go to for all their needs.

Nice to know these spices are available, great selection. We need more stores like these in Jamaica. Thanks for sharing.

[@NATURALMYSTICMK]

Not really. We dont eat majority of that stuff.

[@AnastasiaLUVSU]

@@NATURALMYSTICMK It's not for you. it's for the Asian Jamaicans already living in the country and Asians moving to the country. Anybody who cares about their health will shop in the Asian stores for the specialties that they have.

[@NATURALMYSTICMK]

@@AnastasiaLUVSU most of their stuff and concoctions are very unhealthy. IYKYK. Plus dont assume u know my ethnicity.

[@AnastasiaLUVSU]

@@NATURALMYSTICMK I already know you're black. Let's not kid yourself. Talking about "we don't eat most of that stuff". Who is the "we". These shops aren't for you. Funny cause im black and would gladly shop in these stores. I love Chinese foods and snacks.

[@user-friendlyhuman]

Ah man, I just wish Marianna would have showed us the animal products and not been so quick to whisk you away from her personal kryptonite. It's not cool to be like that, imo! Just because one person don't like the h'eggs and fish, does mean it's to be ignored. So many people enjoy fish and eggs and chicken, beef.

Yep 90 percent black colony now. Very different than it was in the old days of the arrowak n taino

[@alyciacahn663]

Due to globalization, advance transportation and refrigeration, many modern forward thinking countries are able to offer their citizen’s a variety of FOOD AND SPICES’S ( from around the world ) l really don’t think anyone is taking over Jamaica thur a spice. Or are they? Maybe some spice named “ CONSPIRACY NUT! Flavored with paranoia! “ 😂😂😂😂 relax, some of us folks love cooking and trying different foods, life is too short for nonsense…😊❤
