Jerk Pan Truck Gives the Jamaican Dutchy Cart a Run For Their Money
With the Vendy Award nominated Jamaican Dutchy cart on vacation for another two weeks, Midtown Lunch’ers are being forced to get their jerk chicken fix elsewhere these days. Caribbean Spice (on 46th and 6th) has always been an ok substitute, but I thought it might be time to suck it up and brave the line at the Jerk Pan cart on 48th and Park. Much like the Dutchy when they first opened back in 2007, Jerk Pan popped up back in July and instantly had a line that seemed to move at a snail’s pace. The menu (and wait times) were clearly meant to be modeled after the Dutchy, but is the food as good?
I finally got a chance to check it out on Monday, and boy am I glad I finally did.
