De Original Jamaican Pattie Shop

Jamaican patty has it's pinatubo,it's my favorite.I love the spicyness and the crispy covering and it's meatiness

Lucky to find this stall at Greenbelt 1. I was rushing yet I needed something to eat and Jamaican patties seemed to be the fastest food I can grab around the area. The place has a counter style dining arrangement where up to 4 or 5 people can eat altogether. I like the beefy tomato and cheezy beef. You can feel that they didn’t skimp on the filling. From where I sat I could see the patties baked in the oven so really they are true to their claim that their patties are baked, not fried.

de Original Jamaican Pattie Shop is truly the original in the country. It started out decades ago, and there are other establishments that have tried to get into the pattie game with little to no success.

My love for Jamaican patties started out in this Greenbelt branch when I was a kid. And if I am not mistaken, this is their first branch. Also, the Pinatubo was one of the first few things in the past that started my love for spicy food.

It's been awhile since I went to this branch. There is one close to my work place in Pasig, and it's a kiosk, and that's the one I frequent most. But lunch with a friend in the area made me spot something that I have never seen.

Hungarian Sausage! Out of all the sausages in the world, the Hungarian without a doubt is my favorite. I love the slight saltiness that it has with it's bold notes of black pepper. Now in a pattie?! Even though I was super full after my lunch, seeing that made me want to try it out, along with a Pinatubo of course.

It had nice chunks of sausage. It also had some slivers of red pepper to give it that nice extra heated kick. That heat had just a light buzz that didn't over power the black pepper taste that Hungarian sausages are mainly known for.

Verdict: I loved it! Just bummed that they don't have it at the branch near work. Perhaps it's because of the kiosk just having a turbo to reheat delivered patties as opposed to having a full blown oven like in this Greenbelt branch.

The chairs at the side is a great nook to sit in. Grab that nice red hot sauce bottle, and I literally squeeeze some out on every bite.

Food: 5.0 - Love all the patties! Even the not spicy ones taste yummy.

Price: 5.0 - Around P60 it is light and filling. Nothing too heavy on the stomach or the wallet.

Service: 5.0 - Fast! The patties are just there. Point to what you want, and you got it. Stays nice and warm in the container, but having it fresh hot out of the oven is always better.

Ambience: 4.0 - The little nook at the side with 2-3 chairs only good for solo diners. Light isn't too bright, so it really isn't a place were one stays long and reads, uses wifi, meetings, etc. Really just a grab, eat and go place.

Double thumbs up! Bob Marley approved. I just wish there was something spicier than Pinatubo. They should level up their spicy game as there are now many peeps that enjoy really spicy food.

My favorites are Original Beef, Cheesy Beef, and Beefy Mushroom! During Holy Week, we remember that they have Tuna. Dining space is good for passersby with a couple of high chairs, but we usually go here for takeout.

I miss the good ol' days when Jamaican Patties were still very new in Metro Manila and worth only Php25 a piece.

I love its cheesiness and spicy. Beef is generously in here and a flavorful base bread. They always serve it hot. I'd always drop by this shop at Greenbelt whenever i need some stomach feeler while at the mall and it never fail me. I'd love their spicy pinatubo and cheesy beef ^^

Tried their original beef today. I must say that it really tastes delicious. I'm ready to try the other flavors next time! Wanna try the spicy one.
