Mimi was great. I love J*** chicken and I know what it tastes like. I've had it in Jamaica too. This was no where near the taste and was just bland baked chicken with bland yellow rice and a few peas. I didn't bother with the small condiments, because I shouldn't have needed them. The meal was plentiful and I will doctor it up tomorrow for leftovers. I make tastier chicken with the j*** chicken seasonings I buy from the Jamaican market in Oakland.
I wanted a hearty meal for dinner since it was a cold day and I thought getting a chicken curry meal would hit the spot. I ordered the food and it took quite a while. I was quite disappointed with the chicken because it tasted dry and overcooked and there was not a wow factor in the flavoring. The only thing I enjoyed in the meal was the cabbage.
Incredible food! Great service. Chef Verna & team have outdone themselves. We need more Guyanese + Carribean representation in the Bay Area and Calypso Rose has set the bar extremely high
