#tbt to Lunch at Cellar 8 being just Stellar!

Hubby and I made an overdue visit to Cellar 8 a little over 2 weekends ago on a Saturday afternoon.

Happy to see the buzz return and the quality of food being excellent Cellar 8. Reservations are definately recommended.

Kudos to their new Executive Chef, David Wellington.

The crunchy texture of our Cauliflower florets enhanced by the flavour of the spiced orange curry sauce it was glazed with, was just right.

The C8 Mac ‘n’ Cheese is a must have! The mouth-watering pic speaks for itself.

J$1200+tx

Randy enjoyed his creamy Seafood Pasta with Shrimp, Salmon and Calamari tossed in a light cream sauce served on roasted garlic linguini. We appreciate when creamy sauces are indeed light.

J$3200+tx

I had the Honey Garlic Salmon, which was perfection. That honey garlic sauce definitely puts a different, but good spin on the taste.

J$4350+tx

Service was excellent and Bartender, Kedoo’s Mojito and Peach Bellini with Bubbly & Rum were on point!

Cellar 8 is #SugaEndorsed. Suga will return soon!

Suga’s Breakdown: 

Last Saturday, with no weddings, someone to watch the kids and complete or postponed errands, us girls finally made time for Lunch, Vino & Cocktails! Can you relate? If not, it’s totally worth it.

Balance is key Suga Bears and thankfully, the recently Award-Winning Game Changer Restaurant Broken Plate
did not disappoint.

They don’t facilitate reservations, but it’s somewhat understandable in these times when a party may not show up and not give notice. We were seated quickly enough and our waitress was polite and attentive.

Loved the modern, simple yet tasteful decor.

The Restaurant was full to capacity, but comfortable and they still managed to send out our Appetizers, Beverages and Mains in good time.

We enjoyed Calamari, Duck Breast Bruschetta, the Smoked Marlin Salad, Grilled Salmon and BBQ Spare Ribs. The girls took their Dessert to-go.

Calamari ‘Pop’ (J$1750)
Duck Breast Bruschetta (J$2050)
Smoked Marlin Salad (J$2250)
Grilled Salmon (J$3650)
BBQ Spare Ribs (J$3950)

I asked for my Bruschetta to be lightly toasted and it was honoured, arriving with tasty, tender Duck Breast. I also switched out the creamy sauce for my Salmon with grilled pineapple & corn salsa. You can enjoy healthier choices when you’re out too!

A Restaurant for the young, old & in-between. It took me a while to visit, but I definitely prefer the changes made and this new location. Broken Plate is now #SugaEndorsed

#tbt to the Joy when Suga Lifestyle Charities Ltd. & Rotaract Club of New Kingston Donate!

Yesterday was the handover of Suga Lifestyle Charities Ltd.’s sponsored donation to Rotaract Club of New Kingston’s Stationery Drive.

Reading and Colouring books along with Stationery & School supplies were donated to the Glenhope Nursery & Pre-School in Richmond Park Kingston, off Maxfield Avenue.

Many Projects have been delayed during the pandemic, so even though it was hard to hear the kids in a building nearby and not be able to talk or play with them, the genuine feeling of joy expressed by Glenhope Nursery’s Procurement Officer, Ms. Walters was priceless.

We’ll be back THIS year 😊💖

Uncorked…not just for Wine. Go EAT!

It’s been weeks since I’ve been to Uncorked’s Sovereign North location, but I always expect delectable dishes paired with premium wines. I wasn’t disappointed.

I was eating healthy, versus hubby’s Gourmet Burger (all of them are good), until I had a craving for Cheese.

Our courteous & attentive server, Norjah recommended the Black Bomber Cheese and it was really da Bomb! We had Goat cheese with truffles too. Delish!

I paired with an old fave, Miol Prosecco.

Check out Uncorked’s amazing Mastercard specials here, including the Charcuterie Board and one of my faves, their Seared Tuna!

Flavourful and Filling Healthy NEW Spot, Green Gourmet!!!

Gabrielle Burgess a.k.a Suga at Green Gourmet on Roseneath Avenue last Saturday, September 18, 2021

Suga hit the new Breakfast and Lunch Spot on Roseneath Avenue, Kingston Green Gourmet last Saturday.

I am not going lie, with lockdown the next day, I ordered two meals because healthy bowls are not usually filling for me 😃 BUT Green Gourmet’s signature Vegan Stew Bowl pleasantly surprised me. It wasn’t boring or bland to the palate and I was full! You can choose unlimited toppings for your first visit and three (3) thereafter. Their Pineapple and tomato salsa really enhanced the flavour of the meal. I had a Green Smoothie too.

If you would just like to eat stress free, my husband, Randy enjoyed his Ramen Bowl with Shrimp and a Red Stripe. Again, rich flavours.

Signature Ramen Bowl with Shrimp

I took my Smoked Marlin with pepper jelly Wrap (minus the Cheese) to go.
(Total spent for two: J$5900)

Here’s a sneak peek on a possible new dish to come 😉 We got Brawta!

Cash or Online Payment only and Delivery options are available.

Comfy spot with good customer service. Randy already went back yesterday and enjoyed the Mexican Salad with Grilled Chicken. Green Gourmet is #SugaEndorsed.
