3pm called a Jamaican spot about 20min from my house. Wanted to make sure they had patties b4 I made the drive. Nobody picks up, called 3 Times.

My wife had errands to run in the area so we took a chance to stop by.

Walk in the spot and there is 1 customer and 2 workers. I walk up to the counter and ask if they have any chicken patties and of course she’s like no only beef. :stopitslime: So then I’m like I called b4 I came and nobody was picking it up is the phone working? She’s says yes it’s working but she was so busy she couldn’t get to the phone, I literally said out loud BUSY:mjlol: there’s nobody here!!!

She then just says no more patties and I’m fukking flummoxed!:gucci:

No offers to make more. No I’m sorry sir I couldn’t get to the phone. Nothing!

Basically she was like fukk you fukk your money you want what’s left or not??

So I grabbed my wife and left.

Why do Jamaicans run such shytty ass businesses??? I only know of one Jamaican spot that has great customer service.

:camby:

This thread is accurate asf:mjlol:




I've been looking for a new spot in the 804 for weeks since the spot I was going to closed down. The owner was a sweet lady. Proper portions. Delicious coco bread and she had a phatty:takedat:

Now I'm out here struggling for a decent curry goat :mjcry:
If you're in the 804, there are spots near the campuses of both VSU & VUU.

Fortunately my man's wife knows how to hook up ox tails, so whenever i got a taste for them I either give her the dough for them or buy them myself and give them to her. Still hit up the few Jamaican spots in Raleigh on Capital Blvd. though

Jamaican and Nigerians spots here in the DC area are all alike.
The front facing customer service is terrible and the wait is atrocious. But idk, I just think of it as part of the experience :yeshrug:. I've just come to accept it for what it is.

I order that chicken sampler :whew: and then pull off to the side and read the Wall Street Journal. Might even nibble on a patty with some Heineken while I wait :ehh:
