CURRENCY CONVERTER

The "JERK" in the phone number refers neither to the Steve Martin film nor to the guy two cubicles down from you at the office, but rather to a spicy marinade: bay leaves, scotch bonnets, allspice, garlic, soya, green onions, vinegar, and cloves. The result is piquant, scrumptious chicken. The Reef serves up a number of jerk dishes, including their signature quarter jerk chicken breast. Other dishes are equally delightful, including a tropical salad of fresh mango, red onions, and tomatoes; shrimp with coconut milk and lime juice; grilled blue marlin; and Trenton spiced ribs. Choose a glass of wine from the thoughtfully selected list, and you have gourmet dining in a great room -- cleverly decorated with chicken wire, bamboo, and original mixed media artwork -- at a bargain price. Afternoons, the tiny patio is drenched in sunlight, while in the evenings a deejay spins the sounds of the Islands.
