Onondaga County Legislator Linda Ervin visited with George Kilpatrick at the Jamerican Diner this evening.

New Inspiration for the Nation’s George Kilpatrick held a “Power Schmooze” event this evening at the Jamerican Diner, located at 415 East Washington Street. The guests were treated to home-made Jamaican fruit punch and samples of sweet cheese bread and savory jerk chicken.

The cozy spot on the edge of downtown maybe one of the best kept gastronomic secrets along the Connective Corridor.  If you are planning a foodie tour of center city, this place would be a great place to kick it off.

Got Punch?
