COLUMBUS PEGASUS RESTAURANT-
Columbus is
the only Italian restaurant in Kingston Jamaica. Located on
the first floor of the Kingston Jamaica Pegasus Hotel, the
Jamaican restaurant boasts fine Italian cuisine and décor. The
look and feel of Italy is invoked in the Kingston Jamaica
restaurant with a choice of deep jewel blue fabrics on the
chairs. The anti pasta table in the far end of the Kingston
Jamaica restaurant is also decorated in the deep blues and
also adds to the unique Italian Jamaican look. Suspended from
the ceiling in the Kingston Jamaica restaurant are grapes that
remind the travelers from the wine country and Kingston
Jamaica locals that they are in an Italian setting. The
bulkhead of the Kingston Jamaica restaurant is painted in a
warm deep yellow representing the sun.
The Columbus Kingston Jamaica restaurant has a ship's mast
in the corner carved in the traditional shape of a woman. The
food and beverage manager at the Kingston Jamaica Pegasus
Hotel remonstrated that very experienced Kingston Jamaica
staff members serve you the customer. With a wide selection of
Italian dishes the Kingston Jamaica restaurant most of the
dishes are done flambé cooking in front of the guests table.
This is one of the only Kingston Jamaica restaurants that
employ this method of preparing
Jamaican food. The Kingston Jamaica restaurant comes
complete with a full selection of wines. Serving this wide
array of wines by the glass or bottle the Kingston Jamaica
restaurant is superbly tailored for the budget-conscience. The
Kingston Jamaica restaurant observes a strict dress code where
no shorts, tee shirts or sneakers are allowed.
The aim of the Kingston Jamaica restaurant introduces
people to an alternative venue. The restaurant provides most
of the Kingston Jamaica locals with a change from the ordinary
dinners and Jamaican meals provided by other everyday Kingston
Jamaica restaurants. Some of the great Italian Jamaican meals
include, as an appetizer, costini alla florentina which is
actually Florentine toast with chicken liver, anchovy and
fresh cream. Though this recipe does not sound delectable the
taste of the dish is often described as heavenly by the
Kingston Jamaica locals. Another favorite among Kingston
Jamaica visitors is the panzanella di pomodoro which is
actually tomato and bread salad with olives, cucumbers, onion
and basil. Antipasto, or the famous soup Passato Di Cipolla or
Jamaican onion soup. The Lasagna Bolognese is also a favorite
among the Kingston Jamaica locals as it is made from beef,
along with, pollo con pepperoni e fungi or sautéed chicken
breast with sweet peppers and mushrooms. For dessert ice-cream
and a delicious Kingston Jamaica soufflé.
