Horniman Jerk
August 20, 2006

Went to the Horniman Museum today to see the new Aquarium - Which was unbelievably busy [it is free] with families everywhere! It's not a huge aquarium though, so it didn't take long to negotiate the gaggles of kids with noses glued to the tanks. Nice thing to have practically on your doorstep though.

On the way in we noticed hordes of folk heading into the gardens as well. Given the cloudy, overcast day that seemed odd, until we saw the sign advertising the Jerk Cook Out! So when we came out we followed our noses and found a dozen or so stalls selling Caribbean food with steel drum accompaniment... Didn't stop it raining a bit though but that didn't spoil our jerk chicken, rice & peas. Bought from Jerk Rock, whose restaurant we later found in Lordship Lane.

The Horniman shop had these great cuddly singing garden birds made by the RSPB. And a large range of the Rough Guide To World Music series of CDs amongst other stuff!

So it looks like you got to experience a tropical rainstorm as well as some caribbean food and music.

I hope you enjoyed the food!
