Health Ministry Closes Popular Jerk Centre in Portland
The Health Ministry has reportedly ordered the very popular Boston Jerk Centre in Portland closed.
According to the Gleaner, the health ministry team cited, among other things, poor sanitation and preparation of meat which was not approved for human consumption.
“This comes as no surprise to me,” said Derron Wood, who is seeking to represent the Jamaica Labour Party (JLP) in Eastern Portland.
“It cannot be that lovers of jerk pork must be subjected to some of the most unhealthy surroundings at a place that is internationally recognised.”
“For far too long jerk men have been providing food to patrons with dirty finger nails. The practice of handling cooked meat with bare hands is a thing of the past, and it is high time that they (jerk men) improve on their standards.”
