Ting Irie Turns 9: A Flavour-Packed Anniversary Party Like No Other

Celebrate Nine Years of Jamaican Good Vibes, Island Flavours and Irie Beats on 8th May

UAE’s first Jamaican restaurant, Ting Irie, located in Souq Al Manzil, Downtown Dubai, is marking its 9th anniversary with a lively island-style buffet party on Wednesday, 8th May, starting from 8pm until late. Known for its bold Caribbean flavours and high-energy vibes, Ting Irie invites fans old and new to come together for a night of great food, music, and celebration. The buffet includes classic Jamaican favourites and is priced at AED 175 + VAT & Dubai Municipality Fee per person, inclusive of a welcome Rum Punch — a signature rum-based beverage.

The celebration features a buffet-style feast that showcases the very best of Jamaican soul food. Guests will kick off the evening with a refreshing Rasta Salad, hearty Potato Salad, and creamy Coleslaw — the perfect openers to set the tone. The Likkle Tings bring a punch of flavour with spicy and sizzling Pepper Shrimps, smooth Jerk Hummus with a Caribbean twist, and crispy Chickpeas Tostones served atop golden-fried plantain bases.

A true highlight of the evening is the full showcase of Ting Irie’s signature Jamaican Patties, featuring 12 unforgettable flavours: Spicy Beef, Cheezy Beef, Oxtail, Curry Goat, Jerk Chicken, Coconut Chicken, Curry Chicken, Ackee & Saltfish, Shrimp, Callaloo, Curry Veg, and Stewed Peas. Each patty is wrapped in flaky golden pastry and packed with bold, satisfying fillings that reflect the island’s culinary heritage.

The Big Tings offer a hearty spread that brings home the authentic taste of Jamaica. Guests can savour Oxtail N Beans slow-cooked to perfection, rich and fiery Curry Shrimps, succulent Dat Lamb Tho served with jerk hummus, smokey grilled Jerk Chicken, and creamy, spicy Rasta Pasta tossed with bell peppers and jerk seasoning.

On the side, guests can enjoy fragrant Rice and Peas, caramelised Roasted Plantain, buttery Butta Corn, and a vibrant mix of Seasoned Vegetables. To round off the meal, desserts include the irresistibly smooth and creamy Cheesecake Mon and a unique Plantain Tarts, adding just the right island-style indulgence.

To elevate the evening further, guests can choose from a range of signature cocktails available à la carte. Highlights from the menu include Marley’s 7 Sons – A Rum Diary from JA, a tribute to classic Jamaican rum blends; the fruity and playful Dutty Wine – Wine Me Up; and Bon’s Lolly – Keep Yuh Cool, a chilled tropical mix perfect for the Dubai heat. Other popular picks include Cool Rummings – Dem Real Feels and Coco-Loco – Good Vibz, each crafted to deliver bold flavour and a taste of the Caribbean.

Overall, Ting Irie’s 9th anniversary promises a night to remember — a vibrant celebration of Jamaican culture through bold flavours, signature cocktails and lively beats from multiple DJs and an emcee.
