Mama’s Jamaican Kitchen, Swindon (and Paddy’s Gym)

Paddy Fitzpatrick opened a gym down the street from our house not long after we moved in and does good things for the community (like offering a program that earns kids qualifications in coaching along with their physical training to kick ass).  I met him outside the place and it turns out we share an Atlanta connection although I believe he lived mostly out in DeKalb County toward Stone Mountain.  Still his business and his family are welcome additions to the buurt.

Down the alley you travel to get to the gym, they also have a food stand set up Thursday through Saturday serving some wonderful Jamaican and down-home treats.  I can heartily recommend the jerk chicken. (Note, I have grabbed food here a few times but this first entry was prompted more by the freshly finished mural and other paint job than by the cuisine.)
