Join us for a night of traditional Jamaican fare with Chef Kyle Francis from Mary Ellen’s Kitchen & Boonoons Jamaican Eats. Kyle is the face behind the food at Mary Ellen's and Boonoons Jamaican Eats, serving up delicious and authentic Jamaican flavors in every dish. Kyle was born and raised in Trelawny, Jamaica where he started cooking from a very young age. He moved to Key West over 7 years ago and since arriving he’s been serving up soulful, old-school Jamaican dishes that taste like home.
