When it comes to food there is nothing that beats good and I mean GOOOOD soul food. Soul food is what Mamma cooks and Russell's Caribbean Takeaway does it just like she does.
If you want the true taste of Caribbean cooking Russell's is the place to go. The menu is really tasty offering an excellent selection of traditional Caribbean dishes. Curried Goat, Fish Stew, Oxtail Soup and of course Chicken, Rice & Peas are just some of the most popular delights. Snacks include Lamb or beef patties, fried dumplings, plantain, Mmmm I've got to stop, I'm salivating all over my keyboard!!
From the counter you can see the chefs prepare your food in a clean, well equipped kitchen, this always fills me with confidence that what I'm eating is going to be good. Although it's a Takeaway there is a large seating area where you're welcome to eat in, there's no waiter/waitress service so you're responsible for clearing your table once you've finished.
A full take away dinner (and they are healthy portions) will cost £6.00. If you're looking for a real taste of the Caribbean, this place is a must. When the Jamaican Olympic team come to Birmingham in a few months I wouldn't be surprised to find them at Russell's.
