I was obsessed with visiting Blue Ridge Café ever since I saw the Blue Chocolate Tea on Instagram.

I asked my friend Sean about transportation to the location and he indicated we needed to take a Mavis Bank Taxi or a Minibus costing JMD 150.00

Bryanna and I decided to take a visit on a Sunday which was a bad decision in terms of time and cost.

There were Mavis Bank transportation available. We had a 12:00 PM reservation and we were running late so we decided to charter a taxi costing JMD2,500.00. This cost was my fare to Portland St Ann St Mary or St.Thomas which was further away from Kingston.

The roads were full of pot-holes but the scenery was beautiful which made everything perfect.

We arrived just in time. We had the restaurant to ourselves for about twenty minutes. We ordered the famous Blue Chocolate Tea were longing for.

Blue Ridge is for sure a well-kept secret hidden in the hills of East Rural St.Andrew on Salt Hill Road.

We saw stunning views of the Blue Mountain which was heavenly. I knew paradise exists on earth. Blue Ridge is for sure a place to disconnect and restore your energy.
