    I stopped by a place I never heard of until now Dickie's Best Kept Secret and learned a lot from the veteran waiter with a vast experience in service to both the Royal family and the island.

    Young man, you have just gain my full respect, for the way you have given the chef a chance to relive his glory days.
    This quality that you have shown, will definitely take you on a long and prosperous journey through life. I can tell that your parents have brought you up very well. Keep up the good work.

    I wish I had the money to renovate Dickie's place. It should be updated and preserved as an iconic part of Jamaican history. The minister of tourism claiming to turn St. Thomas into the Ochi of the East maybe things will begin to look up again for Dickie's. There are so many hidden gems in Jamaica. The ALL INCLUSIVE hotels have stifled the growth and fruitfulness of these small businesses.

    I remember someone did a video at Dickie’s about 15-20 years ago and it was quite pleasant at the time. Cooking there is not a rushed thing and that was understood then as it is perceived now. The experience was enjoyable and received great reviews when it was aired. It is encouraged that one should take their time and a good thing should not be rushed, as what Dickie has always tried to reflect. Its still nice to see the place in operation till this day.

    Great VLOG. This place is a historic spot, and it should be advertised some how, before it fades away from Jamaica's history. I hope this video get out to as may people as possible so that Dicky can retire and feel happy that he made an impact to the Jamaican restaurant industry. Again, Great VLOG😀😀
