This place was just great I enjoyed my experience. A good friend of mine brought me to this cafe and it was somthing else. The food was unbelievable!!! We started off with the shrimp salad, curry chicken extra spicey, and of course jerk chicken. Had to make some room for dessert coconut cake and sweet potato pudding was out of this world!!! During the meal I was drinking LIBATIONS fresh juices they were to die I actually ended up drinking several. I suggest the guava or mango it was so gooooooooood. Oh there was also one with watermelon.. Cant wait to go back. So make sure to head out to BRAWTA if your ever in Brooklyn.
