The Houseboat Grill
Location: Jamaica
Bartender: Rick
The Houseboat Grill is a delightful floating restaurant in Montego Bay that requires taking a small barge a few feet from land to the eatery.
The food and drinks, with their divine taste, are a true indulgence and the scenery captures the beauty of Jamaica.
Having lived in Jamaica, I can attest to the saying that a part of your soul never truly leaves. Jamaica holds a special place in my heart, with its breathtaking beauty, rich culture, vibrant music, laid-back lifestyle and deep respect for others. It’s a place that truly has it all.
Our wonderful host, Rick, introduced us to The Spirited Jamaican Yard Vibes, a delightful rum-based drink that he personally crafted.
For those seeking a more mellow option, the Jamaica Me Happy is a colorful concoction of various fruit juices, offering a refreshing and vibrant taste of the island.

IRIE!
That sound says, “All’s well,” accompanied by comfort and chilling out.
It’s not the sound I heard when I face-planted on a moped, losing consciousness and waking up to hear the doctor say, “Don’t let her see a mirror!”
My Rastafarian friend brought me medicine grown in her garden to treat the 36 stitches in my face. She also made me daily fresh hand-squeezed juices.
And the miraculous transformation from injury to healing, thanks to her concoctions, would rival the most expensive plastic surgery, which was Irie indeed.
