Tickets go on sale July 27th at 10 amMY TRIP TO IRIE KITCHENIf you're tired of burgers and pizza, check out irie kitchen (Jamaican food). Think chipotle layout, but it's Jamaican food. The place was super clean and had a Jamaican vibe. You zip through the line quickly.I had the skewed chicken, Plantains, and pineapple coleslaw (so good). This takes three bites if you've never had this type of food as it doesn't taste like anything I've ever eaten. Quite yummy.All of this is on top of Jamaican rice, and that mean I was not leaving hungry. They are located at 837 W Market St, Akron or you can call ahead and pick it up.Their website is https://www.iriejakitchen.com/DERBY WEEK - RENT THE TRACKAugust are derby days and some of this has been moved out of downtown Akron to EJ Thomas.see https://www.soapboxderby.org/CHECK OUT THE AKRON EVENTS CALENDARakronpodcast.com/eventsSUPPORT DOWNTOWN ARKONSee https://www.facebook.com/10242143011/posts/10161886435948012/VOTING LOCATIONS HAVE CHANGEDSome polling locations will be changed for the Aug. 2 primary election, the Summit County Board of Elections announced.
