Jamaican beef patty in Toronto is a turmeric-yellow flaky pastry turnover filled with spiced ground beef, often served in coco bread. The Toronto-style buttery crust differs from the Jamaican original.
The Jamaican patty arrived in Toronto with Caribbean migration through the 1970s and 1980s. Patty King opened in 1981 in Kensington Market, supplying convenience stores citywide; Caribbean Queen of Patties followed in 1995. The patty-in-coco-bread sandwich, a soft white roll wrapping a hot patty, is Toronto's distinct contribution to the dish and the most-eaten street food after the peameal bacon sandwich.
