The website, Suga Lifestyle was launched in November 2013 by Gabrielle Burgess a.k.a Suga.
Since then, I have been bringing you up to date, exciting reviews of culinary hot spots and hidden gems across the island and even a few international ones too.
I was given the honour and pleasure of being a Food Judge for The Jamaica Observer Table Talk Food Awards in 2014 and served as a Jamaica Gleaner Restaurant Week Ambassador by the public’s vote in 2015.
Suga Lifestyle has been known to keep it real, giving honest, yet balanced reviews, taking you through each review line by line, almost letting you feel as if you were there.
Suga Lifestyle has grown a lot since 2013, where it has maintained its goal of intending to inspire, educate and entertain via various types of posts categorized by; GW Art,
Restaurant Reviews and Ratings, Brand Jamaica, Charities, Health and Fitness, Sports and more. The blog, currently has a reach of over 1,500 followers and grows daily.
To further expand Suga Lifestyle’s reach, I have selected Suga Tasters!
Suga Tasters are Objective, Observant, Adventurous travelers and foodies that support Brand Jamaica. They enjoy taking photos and keeping up to date and in touch with the Culinary industry, the Chefs, Bakers and Caterers that keep it alive and thriving, and of course, hot spots and hidden gems in Jamaica, Florida and Washington DC.Â
Suga Bears, Suga Babies and Suga Daddies, I present to you, Suga Lifestyle’s Suga Tasters!
As time goes by, you will hear more from them. But first up, is
Craig Fleming!
Craig is a Logistics Specialist, but also a Private Chef. His favourite dishes are Smoked Salmon and Petrossian Beluga Caviar Pizza from Spago in Beverly Hills (USA), Escargots from the Terra Nova Hotel and Pho!
Craig’s favourite places to eat casually out of town are Stush in the Bush, Mystic Thai, Woody’s Portland and Jack Sprat, Treasure Beach.

The Jamaican Peanut Butter Factory has produced a new flavour once again! Chocolate! They introduced it to me at the Table Talk Jamaica Observer Food Awards and I had to get it.
It is heavenly and made with our very own local Chocolate from Mount Pleasant Farm Chocolatiers. At the moment, you can only find this one in select grocery stores such as Loshusan Supermarket in Barbican. It is slightly more expensive than the other flavours they have, but totally worth it. #SugaEndorsed

Yesterday, PRESS invited their valued customers to taste the best of what they had to offer from their NEW Menu options for FREE, give feedback and celebrate their 1 year Anniversary.
All options from the tasting are now available on their Menu!
Favourites for Suga were the Lychee Cake, which had a light, fluffy texture that melted in my mouth, the tasty Mango Sorbet and the Vanilla Chai Frappe (not listed).
The Crostini stood out for me too. They had quite a variety. I had the pleasure of tasting the Pizza, Ham, Avocado Chickpea and Italian Crostini.Â
The Summer Passion Iced Tea was pleasantly refreshing and the Coconut Bread Pudding, Chocolate Brownie and Pecan Squares were sweet treats. I heard the Go Green Protein Punch was delightful as well.
PRESS also has Fat-Free Frozen Yogurt that they have been offering from about February this year. Yesterday, the Strawberry Frozen Yogurt was too sweet, but I enjoyed the Coconut Frozen Yogurt.
PRESS has convenient hours for you to grab a quick bite, while you take care of business before the work day actually begins, during or after.
Happy Anniversary PRESS and Congratulations on a successful first year! Looking forward to all that you have to offer for more years to come.
