Hidden paradise in Monroe Louisiana
Lewin’s Jamaican Cuisine brings bold Caribbean flavor to Monroe with a personal story behind every plate. Co-owner Arlana Lewin said the restaurant grew out of her husband’s cooking, which first impressed her when they met in Toronto. After moving to Louisiana in 2019, the couple traveled and sampled Jamaican food across several states, an experience that pushed them to invest in his dream and open their own restaurant. Now at 4703 Pecanland Mall Drive, the husband-and-wife-run spot continues to grow its presence in the community, serving walk-in customers and catering for local events. “Nothing could really touch his flavor and his taste,” Lewin said.

Whitt explains why: “Saturday night was usually the time for distributing slave provisions. This made possible the tradition of a larger-than-normal Sunday dinner — a practice that has continued with minor modification in many African American households.”
