This is my 3rd visit and it didn't disappoint. I brought couple of my friends with me for their first time. Our waitress was very helpful since they had 20,000 questions for her. Food was fresh as always with good portions. Love stopping at Cool Runnnings every time I'm in Michigan City. Love the atmosphere & mural of Bob Marley.

Driving to Blue Chip…I saw the unmistakable Jamaican flag. I quickly did a Uee and went across the railroad track and found this unassuming small restaurant. Went in…a young lady was celebrating her birthday, after quick salutations, gave the waitress my order of two lunch specials of Jerk chicken & catfish. To my culinary delight…the chicken was delicious! I questioned my partner on the catfish….through his stuffed mouth he gave a two thumbs up. Ample portions. Delicious....

First time trying this place and we will be back. Had the Shrimp Mac and Cheese which is served in a cored out pineapple and has bits of pineapple in it as well. Also had the jerk catfish which was good too. The jerk sauce was sweet initially and the heat kicked in later but had great flavor. Would recommend if you're looking for a good jerk spot.
