Jerk Pit - Richmond

Jerkin' it. I've been wanting to come here for a while, but they are usually closed around the times that I'm looking for food. Lunch seems to be the best time to come here; with its small, quiet, ambiance with little decoration outside of a couple Bob Marley posters, awards, and a map of Jamaica.
