She shared on the inspiration to launch this business at that specific time saying, “We wanted to bring back community, job security and a safe space to enjoy each other’s company. My deep-rooted passion for Caribbean flavours and a drive to showcase the richness of this cuisine to a wider audience coupled with this void left by the pandemic, birthed Jasmine’s Caribbean Cuisine, the lively culinary escape to the Caribbean right in the heart of Manhattan.”
Drawing on inspiration from her Antiguan, Dominican and Virgin Island roots and her travels across the Caribbean islands, Jasmine, along with Chef Basil Jones and her diligent team continue to meticulously curate a menu that showcases the rich tapestry of tastes for which the region is known, while embracing modern culinary trends.
