I know I took a while to visit this one Suga fam, but from Suga Taster reports, I wasn’t quite pulled in yet.
I visited on a GNO mid August. We had the Tacbar Platter (any 8 tacos for J$3950). We chose the Ahi Tuna, Oxtail, Shrimp and Lobster Tacos.
The Ahi Tuna Taco needed a tasty, spicy balsamic vinaigrette.
I’m not sure why crushed chips were in the Oxtail Taco, but it was an unwelcomed crunch for me, not a hit. Like most folks, I prefer my Oxtail tender and boneless without that texture.
The Shrimp Taco was bland without the lime they provided with it. So definitely added that splash of lime.
The Lobster Taco was the best selection for us, but why put crumbled feta in it to overpower the Lobster? The taste of Lobster can be easily overpowered and feta is known for it’s sharp, pungent taste.
Anyhow, I love Chef Haleem Card’s food, but I was a bit disappointed. Perhaps they may have been a bit overwhelmed in the kitchen by the fact that it was Heineken’s Bar hopping series night. But kudos to them for still keeping a high quality of service by the restaurant. Those ladies were awesome and the music and vibes were fantastic.
It’s still Chilitos for me for authentic Mexican, but I will revisit.
Have a great weekend!

It was amazing! Dream about it until after the Devon House construction finishes though. Sorrrry, they are temporarily closed, renovating the dining and bar areas in the mean time. So until then!
Enjoy the weekend!
XoXo, 💖Suga

We’ve come to another stop on Randy’s Birthday Hopping Weekend, Steakhouse on the Verandah (Ig: @steakhouseontheverandah) at Devon House.
It’s been too long. Props to Chef Christian Sweeney (Ig: @chefsweeney)
and his team. Perfectly cooked Steaks, great service and ambience topped off by ‘really good’ Dessert.
I don’t think I’ve heard it, but it needs to be said. Happy Hubby, Happy Life.
Celebrate them and Celebrate Birthdays! Life is for living 💖💃🎉

Start your week off the right way and remember you can eat healthy the fun way on weekends too!
Watch “Eating Healthy the Fun way with The Commissary’s Simo’s Bread and Catering!” on YouTube here:
I enjoyed going to the The Commissary by Devon House and using Simo’s Bread and Catering’s Cherry Tomato Salsa to top off my loaded baked Potato Wedges and Chicken franks (meat optional) also topped off with black beans and corn. Great for a light Lunch.
Then I had a little extra left and used it top off my Sunday Dinner! Hubby and I thoroughly enjoyed Simo’s Bread and Catering’s Vegan Pesto with my Grilled Chicken & whole grain Linguine Pasta, also topped off with a dash of low-fat, low calorie (20 cal.!) grated Parmesan Cheese.

Check out this healthy, colourful dish from Wright Life Live Food Eatery in Devon House!
Ackee Taco, Cauliflower rice and a fresh, flavourful Chickpea medley. I mean, Chickpeas don’t always have to be curried!
Sorry Suga Bears, but Wright Life Live Food Eatery (Ig: @wrightlifelivefoodeatery) is temporarily closed.
In the mean time, be inspired and even try to cook it in the kitchen yourselves. The world has gone digital. Use your tools and apps wisely 😉
Have a healthy day!
