Back A Yard - San Andreas

This little joint in down town San Jose was something I had to check out.

Here from out of town to take a job exam and was looking for place to eat while hereLanded on this spot and decided to give it a try.

We had originally came here for the corn breadwe tried both the regular and festival corn breadthe festive corn bread was definitely something you

I usually arrive on a Wednesday to her Slow Cooked Brown Stew Chicken, but today Thursday was the order of the Coconut Curry Shrimp with vegetables. The shrimps were perfectly cooked with the right amount of chewing, the vegetables were crispy and fresh, and the coconut curry was the perfectly seasoned so that you had the heat, the spices and the cool with every bite. The fried plantains were dense and sweet and the rice and the beans are almost a meal in themselves as tasty and fill them. Even if you cannot enter it for a specific Daily Special, the entire menu is worth it. I personally love her Jerk Pork, and on days when I am not in the mood for Jamaican spices, their BBQ options are gorgeously sharp in front and sweet on the back.

Last Saturday I tried this place and it was better than I expected! One word: Flavorful (in every bite). I was a bit worried about the digestive effect (if the food/season was too heavy), but I had no discomfort. I had Jerk tofu (comes with rice beans and fried plantains) and my friend enjoyed the Combo Ruck Lachs Ruck cattle oxtails (also comes with rice beans and fried plantains). The tofu really had the taste of a piece of meat, and the rice is full of taste, I still think of it! If you like Jamaican food or want to try, go to this place o its other locations, they have a lot of options, you will not be disappointed.
