Jamaican D’s (Philadelphia, PA)

17th and Spring Garden

This week Dan and the VendrTV crew venture to Philadelphia for a taste of the Caribbean at Jamaican D’s, a truck owned and operated by Dave Dawes, and parked at The Community College of Philadelphia.

While there Dan samples Dave’s Oxtail, Mac & Cheese, Collard Greens, and Jerk Chicken, all of which were incredible.

    Just because you saw a black person doesn't mean you have to stop rapping!!!! LoL Ryan.
  • Danny and crew....

    Fabo fabo fabo epi, guys! You never fail to make me hungry....

    And, thanks for including the rap in the final bumper... certainly shows y'all love what you're doing!
  • Nice post. If you're diggin' Jamaican don't forget West Philly's Brown Sugar Bakery. Awesome Ox Tail... 'nuff said.
  • I'm super curious about the jerk chicken, because I've never really been anywhere known for having great jerk chicken.

    Nice vegan shout out, Dan! Loved it. :D
  • Wha?!? I wish to God that we had food like that around here. That Mac & Cheese looked phenomenal....and, mmmmmm to that Jerk chicken. I've very curious as to what you scrounge up here on the West Coast. When exactly are you going to be in the Bay Area?

    I love the character of the places you find, the people really make them....and the fact that their food is SO amazing.

    P.S. I've shown your show to my brothers and they love it! When are you going to be on the Food Network....or better yet, the Travel Channel? I'm serious, you're show is that caliber.
