Owning Forkin’ Good Café for eight years was one of the most rewarding chapters of my career.
Our food was fresh, seasonal, and inspired by local farmers’ markets — everything made with intention and community in mind.

As a woman-owned restaurant, I took pride in creating a space where great food and heart came together. Our chef team worked hard to bring farm-to-table dining to life every single day.
We were even featured in a few magazines that believed in what we were doing — proof that passion and purpose can fill more than just a plate.

Little Kingston 🇯🇲 Jamaican Restaurant review:
1. Oxtail: incredible flavor that's sweeter and thicker than most. Must Try!
2. Curry Goat: portion is out of control! A mix of tender and not so tender pieces
3. Jerk Chicken: smokey and well-seasoned. Some pieces are dry.

Where are your fave Jamaican spots in LA??
