Ziggel’s Cuisine – Voorhees Township, NJ

Ziggel’s Cuisine – Voorhees Township, NJ

Small Bites Radio has been named Top Hospitality Shows on the Planet from 2020 – 2024, #Bluejeanfood.com named Top Philadelphia Best Philadelphia Lifestyle Blogs and Websites from 2021-2024, Best Philly Food Blogs and Websites 2023-24, Top 25 Philly Food RSS Feeds in 2024, nominated by Metro Philly Newspaper 2022-24 Best of Philadelphia Arts & Entertainment, and WINNER of Metro Philly Newspaper 2023 Best of Philadelphia Arts & Entertainment.

Ziggel’s Cuisine in Voorhees Township, NJ may be small in size, but it’s big on flavor and even bigger on friendly service. While it might not have a ton of seats for dining in, that just adds to its charm. It’s the kind of place where you feel like you’re part of the family from the moment you walk through the door. The jerk chicken with rice and peas and cabbage is a true taste sensation. The chicken is perfectly seasoned and cooked to juicy perfection, with just the right amount of kick from the jerk seasoning. And let’s not forget about the sides – the rice and peas are fluffy and flavorful, while the cabbage adds a satisfying crunch and freshness to the dish. It’s a little of a fancier version of Jerk Chicken and not as smoky as you would expect so some may complain about that, but regardless it was tasty. I would certainly go back to try more of the menu. 

Again, in 2023, Small Bites with Donato Marino and Derek Timm of Bluejeanfood.com was blown away by winning the Best of the Best in the Philadelphia Region Arts & Entertainment category out of 80,000 votes tallied in total through Metro Philly’s Best of Philadelphia for 2023.

Small Bites Radio has been named Top Hospitality Shows on the Planet from 2020 – 2023, #Bluejeanfood.com named Top Philadelphia Lifestyle Blogs, Websites & Influencers from 2021-2023, Best Philly Food Blogs and Websites 2023, and nominated by Metro Philly Newspaper 2022 and 2023 Best of Philadelphia Arts & Entertainment.

This location has seen quite a bit of turnaround. It seems nothing has been able to separate themselves from the crowd and become a destination. Can Nonna’s change that? Well during my visit the staff was a pleasure to be around, friendly, food was delicious, and prices reasonable. I enjoyed the Godzilla which is fresh homemade chicken cutlet, prosciutto, balsamic dressing, and roasted peppers on a nice seeded roll. If in the area I would certainly visit again and try more of the menu.

A tiny little spot, but serving large personality. Just be aware GPS may take you to the wrong location. They are located next to Anthony Simon Jewelers. I had their jerk chicken with cabbage and rice and peas. One of the highlights was the friendly service. They couldn’t have been more welcoming. The food was lower on the spice profile than other Jamaican destinations around, but it was still an enjoyable meal. I would be interested to try a few other choices on their menu and visit again next time in the area.

Jameridad Caribbean Cuisine – Camden, NJ

Small Bites Radio has been named Top Hospitality Shows on the Planet from 2020 – 2023, #Bluejeanfood.com named Top Philadelphia Lifestyle Blogs, Websites & Influencers from 2021-2023, Best Philly Food Blogs and Websites 2023, and nominated by Metro Philly Newspaper 2022 and 2023 Best of Philadelphia Arts & Entertainment.

Whether you’re seeking a taste of the Caribbean or want to explore new and exciting flavors, Jameridad Caribbean Cuisine provides a delightful culinary journey through the region’s diverse and mouthwatering dishes. The signature dish I like to order is jerk chicken, a spicy and smoky grilled chicken marinated with a blend of herbs and spices and it did not disappoint here, but was just a tad dry. The Jamaican cabbage was a flavorful and colorful medley of vegetables. It offered a balance of tastes, combining the natural sweetness of the cabbage and carrots with the savory notes from the onions, garlic, and spices. The rice and peas were cooked perfectly as well. The only wish would be for more sauce as they only provide two tiny cups of sauce, but I’ll know to ask for more if and when I go back.

This place is a South Jersey hidden gem. As soon as I stepped inside the woman at the counter yelled, “I know this is your first time here isn’t it” and that was correct. She continued with demanding I take a free passion fruit drink she prepared right then and there. Not only was the drink great, the meal was amazing. From the jerk chicken, plantains, rice, and cabbage everything was cooked perfectly and tasty as could be. It was very affordable as well for the amount of food provided. If you love Jamaican food or happen to be in the area you should give them a try for sure.

Great meal here. I had the jerk chicken with rice and peas and cabbage. The service was above and beyond friendly, food was delicious, and serving size was overflowing. You could tell the chicken was smoked with a nice smoke ring in every bite, rice was fresh, and veggies were crisp and high quality. Without a doubt one of the better Jamaican / Caribbean dining destinations in South Jersey and if you haven’t tried them you should.

Jamaican food is one of my favorite types of cuisine. The flavor profile is mixed beautifully when done just right with that little bit of spicy elevating the dish in a good taste type of way instead of just spicy to be spicy. Let me tell you that Irie Mon Jamaican Restaurant’s Jerk chicken was spot on. I hate when some places just bake the chicken and throw spice on top. Not here! From the smokey flavor to the crisp skin every bite was delicious and really enjoyed my visit. They should be on your radar if you are fan of this cuisine. A welcome addition to this area of South Jersey.

One of the greatest joys in life for me is enjoying good Jamaican food. Let me tell you that Caribbean Paradise Jamaican Restaurant is a good spot to stop by as their Jerk Chicken was really good. The portion was generous and prices very reasonable. If in the area this is a decent spot to order from.
