Where to Dine and Drink on Mackinac Island

"Chef Shawn Fearon, originally from Kingston, Jamaica, first came to Mackinac as one of the island’s many summertime work visa employees. Some 20 years later, he owns Kingston Kitchen—which not only serves Caribbean flavors that remind Shawn of home, but is one of two restaurants on-island to stay open year round. This gem, located just off the main drag on the east side of Hoban Street, is a locals’ favorite for good reason. Look for dishes such as ackee and saltfish, curried goat, and jerk-dusted salmon. Don’t forget to stay cool with a pint of sorrel beer, a Jamaican favorite." - Stacey Brugeman
