Celebs' Fave Fast Foods

Thursday, October 20, 2011



Whether a steaming hot patty, spicy jerk, or crispy wings, almost everyone has their fave fast food guilty pleasure. We check in with fast-food lovers from the business, food, entertainment, and beauty pagaent spheres to see what their faves are.

Chavoy Gordon, second runner-up Miss Intercontinental

"I'm a fast food junkie. I love a Burger King whopper with fries and a Coke. It was actually the first thing I bought after I returned home from Spain as it was mostly healthy food available there. I also love Tastee beef patties with cheese; and oh yes, glazed donuts. While I do have a soft spot for fast food, I believe in having a healthy balance in your diet."

Kevin Broderick, Executive Chef of the Rockhouse Hotel and Jamaica Observer Food Awards Chef of the Year

"My fave fast food is jerk chicken from Scotchie's from Montego Bay. That's what I call fast food, you go in, order and it's ready! I love it because I'm a grill fanatic and I have a thing for grilled food. It has a nice marinade to go with it and the chicken is flavourful."

Harry Maragh, chief executive officer, Lannaman and Morris (Shipping) Limited

"I'm a Burger King guy ...I always visit the Manor Park location...the food is good and the staff is well trained... kid's cheese burger, it's not too big and not too small...and I love the fries. I can't say burgers are the healthiest thing in the world but everyone is allowed one sin."

Dr Shane Alexis, past president of the Jamaica Medical Doctors' Association

"From time to time, I'll have a good cheesburger with extra pickles from my favourite place in Liguanea."

Jacqui Tyson, caterer and proprietor of From Thought To Finish Jahmento Production

"I absolutely love KFC's corn-on-the-cob. It's always moist, full of flavour and cooked to the bite -- not too soft and not too hard."

Jeremain Brown, TVJ sportcaster

"I love Island Grill's seasoned fries especially when they're steaming hot. I enjoy the taste and the fact that unlike other fries, they don't whimper quickly.

Tifa, female entertainer

"I'm a big fan of KFC's hot wings. I usually get the mixed wings. I love spicy taste and that they're very convenient since it's grab and go."

Don Wehby, Group Chief Executive Officer, GraceKennedy Limited

"I really love jerk chicken and pork. I love spicy food and jerk is really unique to Jamaica. Pork Pit in Montego Bay is very good."

Patrick Casserly

Trade Ambassador/Special envoy with responsibility for (ICT) sector

"I'm a KFC three piece big meal deal (leg and thigh) fan. I also enjoy a Tastee beef patty with an ice cold Pepsi."

Alaine, female entertainer

"I'm a Burger King lover. The Junior whopper combo is absolutely Yummmmm."
