For those fortunate enough to have strolled through the cool waters of Frenchman's Cove or have dove into the stillness of the Blue Lagoon, have definitely tasted the region's famous spice. Of course, we are speaking of the richness of Jamaica and the birth place of Jerk Seasoning. Just outside of Port Antonio, Jamaica, high in the hills, over looking the most beautiful water in the world, you will discover Boston Bay. It is in a small house, when each morning, the "Pit" is prepared for the day's feast. Fourteen different spices and Pimento wood are used for flavor and Scotch Bonnet Peppers; add the fire that is Jerk. Before 11:00am the line of locals and tourist, alike, exceeds thirty minutes. This is the very place, that Scott Durrah, restaurateur and Chef, discovered his love of this country's famous flavor and was taught the exact technique that is known by only a few.

I'm addicted. I love the curry shrimp and the jerk chicken. There's nothing like it in Denver.

Scott opened his first 8 Rivers on August 1, 2005 in Colorado . Turning up the heat in Rock Creek, just outside of Boulder, he is now poised to take on Denver !
Opening on June 1, 2006, 8 Rivers Café in Highlands Square in Denver, Colorado will be the Caribbean restaurant this chef has always wanted. “Not just great food, but a relaxing atmosphere that’s small and intimate. Many chefs enjoy meeting their guests, for me it is a must.”
The beautiful decor, relaxing atmosphere and great food are the heat that is 8 Rivers!
