The Person, the Passion, the Purpose
Welcome to my Jamaican food haven! I’m Kerri-Ann, the founder, voice, and recipe developer behind Kerri-Ann’s Kravings Food Blog. Here, I celebrate all things Jamaican cuisine, sharing my love for bold flavors, unique ingredients, and the rich cultural heritage that inspires every dish.
Why “Kerri-Ann’s Kravings”?
The name is a playful nod to my insatiable appetite for all things food, especially Jamaican food. As a Kingston-born Jamaican, bold, explosive Caribbean flavors have always been close to my heart. Put it all together, and you get a delicious food blog filled with authentic and fusion recipes that I’ve perfected over the years.
My food blog started in 2019 as a creative outlet and has since evolved into a full-time business. Now, I can share my passion for Jamaican cuisine with the world, and nothing brings me more joy!

On my blog, you’ll discover a kollection of recipes that reflect my culinary journey. From classic dishes like jerk chicken, oxtail, curry goat, and rice and peas, to my creative spins on traditional flavors, I’ve got recipes for every craving.
My mission is simple: to make Jamaican cuisine approachable and accessible to home cooks of all skill levels. Whether you’re new to Caribbean cooking or a seasoned food lover, I want my recipes to inspire confidence in the kitchen.

Sharing Food Stories, One Plate at a Time
Food is more than just sustenance to me; it’s a way to connect with culture and bring people together. That’s why I love sharing stories through the dishes I create. Every plate holds a story, and I strive to educate, entertain, and inspire my readers to explore new flavors and cuisines.
Whether you’re a seasoned Jamaican food lover or just starting your culinary journey, my blog is here to guide you. I’m passionate about sharing my love for Jamaican cuisine and hope to inspire you to get creative in the kitchen, bringing bold and unique flavors to your table.
From Kingston to the Hudson Valley
Going beyond the surface: A personal look at me
I’m a proud Jamaican-Bronxite, born and raised in Kingston before migrating to the USA. Now, the lush Hudson Valley in NY is my home. As a single mother, my family means everything to me. Growing up in a family that placed a strong emphasis on food and cooking, I’ve always loved creating delicious dishes.
The importance of eating together, creating memories, and sharing stories around the table has stayed with me and is just as important to me now as an adult with my own family.
My culinary journey began after a long career in Sales Administration at Pfizer, Inc., but I’m grateful for the unexpected turn life took, leading me to a path that ignites my soul.
Join me as I share my love for big, bold, and explosive Caribbean flavors. Whether you’re a foodie or just love good vibes, you’ll feel right at home here. Pull up a chair, and let’s savor life’s delicious moments together! xo
