Offering local cuisine, int'l flair

Dine under the stars while your mind takes a trek back in time. This is not the scene out of a novel but yours for the taking if you choose the Grogge Shoppe located at the historic Devon House on Waterloo Road as your restaurant of choice during the eighth staging of the Gleaner-sponsored Restaurant Week.

Known for its authentic Jamaican dishes, there is that and more this year with a touch of international flair.

For this year's Restaurant Week, think callaloo stuffed chicken breast in a light curry sauce with garlic mashed sweet potato on a bed of seasonal vegetables. Think of a hint of spicy, with the aroma of garlic and a sweet hint from the sweet potato in the perfect marriage. Or how how about the other white meat? Boneless jerked pork on garlic callaloo and, mashed sweet potato.

And to top it off, they have the most divine desserts that include cornmeal pudding, cheesecake, bread pudding and chocolate mousse.

Whatever flavour you desire can be yours during Restaurant Week at the Grogge Shoppe, so call and reserve your space today.
