Dinner at MarketPlace with Auntie Donna

We went over to the MarketPlace on Constant Spring last night. Auntie Donna treated us all to a dinner out, thank you very much! This is an interesting place. Five restaurants and a deli surround an open air courtyard. Each restaurant is independent with its own seating. But if you sit in the courtyard you can get service from several at once. Our party split between Chinese and Indian. Continental, Japanese, and Latin are also available.

It was a really pleasant evening, passing dishes back and forth. It has been cool and rainy for a couple of days in Kingston. The temperature was perfect. The food was very good.

It was remarkable that the setting could have been anywhere. It really did not feel like Jamaica. This could have been a little slice of the US or Europe, except you do not see restaurants so close together except in food courts.

The family knew a lot of people going by, so there was a lot of greeting going on. Maylene (whom we met at Donna's mom's house) was there with her family. There were lots of others as well.

After dinner, as we got to the parking lot, we had a group hug for Auntie Donna. She is a sweetie!
