In September 2009, Kingston 11 Cafe played host to Rohan Marley, one of Bob Marley’s sons.

Rohan was in Vancouver promoting Marley Coffee and while being interviewed on radio had mentioned he would like to find a place during his stay that served authentic Jamaican food.

A listener called in and suggested he try Kingston 11 Cafe in North Vancouver, a few hours later, Prince Rowe, owner and chef of the restaurant was cooking up a delicious fish salad for Rohan.

Rohan Marley declared it the best Jamaican food he had eaten in 20 years and reminded him of his Grandmother’s cooking. Rohan has eaten in Jamaican restaurants in Montreal, Toronto and LA and has never had more authentic Jamaican food than at Kingston 11 Cafe.

No small praise from the son of Reggae icon Bob Marley. Check out the photos below!
