Guam’s favorite Jamaican restaurant may soon be coming to a Manila street corner near you. The owners of Jamaican Grill, located in HagÃ¥tña’s Chamorro village and downtown Tumon, are looking to expand their successful local business with franchises of the restaurant in the Philippines.

“The product has already been test marketed to the Filipino community here on Guam,” says Kenney. More.
