The Brick Oven, known for its delectable pastry, invites you to sit and eat. This you can do in style and with ease on your pocket during RW come November.

Now located at 49A Hope Road, the expanded space has allowed the popular eatery to up its menu offerings. Chicken or pork sow bow is new on the line items; however, Brick Oven's one-of-a-kind Yaad slice pizza is a must-have. The thin crust is laden with mouthful morsels of barbecued or jerked chicken, green peppers, pineapples and real mozzarella cheese with none of the oily residue common with other pizzas.

But the dish to really watch out for is the tuna melt combo that will be making its debut specifically for RW. Based on your choice of whole wheat or white, half of a warm moist cocoa bread is stuffed with perfectly seasoned tuna and cheddar cheese that really brings out the flavour. The sandwich is paired with the soup of the day - red peas with pig's tail, gungo, beef or chicken. With most of their recipes being family secrets that have been passed down through generations, you are guaranteed the real Jamaican taste.
