The calm before the storm… The Pot a Bubble at Kingston Kitchen, the city is a hustle & a bustle and Carnival a come.
Remember to take a pause, apprecilove everything, change your strategy if you have to and reset. Whether it’s before during or after what keeps coming at you in life. Balance is key and always remember, Jamaica is not a Real Place, it’s an Experience😃

At the end of April before Exams, Suga handed over some much needed Science Textbooks and 1-worthy CXC notes + Sanitary pads over to Guidance Counsellor, Mrs. Shemelia Dawkins Brown of Immaculate Conception High School for Girls (Ig: @simplyimmaculate).
The struggle to equip our children with all that they need now + Period Poverty is real. Not to mention the Tampon shortage! Suga has started the drive from now, so if anyone has any Tampons or Sanitary pads to contribute, please Email ([email protected])/Call me (876.422.3769). The Tampon option is important too, especially for our athletes on the rise.
Our Track Team (Ig: @ichswolves) who you saw blazing up the relays at Champs, had Finalists in the Shot put, Discus, 100m Hurdles and a Bronze medallist in the 200m at the National Junior Championships held last weekend at the National Stadium. Well done Ladies! 💙ðŸ¤
Also, if you have any children who have moved on from High School and you need to offload Textbooks or would like to give a monetary contribution towards School books or supplies, please Email me as well. Back to School will be here in no time. Help Suga Lifestyle to advance Health Care and Education as we strive to Build a Better Jamaica.

Thanks Luxury Jamaica (Ig: @luxuryja) and The Storyteller (Ig: @thestorytellerja) for an unforgettable weekend at Charela Inn (Ig: @charelainn)!
I had so many beautiful moments to put together that were captured and experienced at Charela Inn.
An aged, but well kept family-owned boutique hotel located on Negril’s famous Seven Mile Beach with airy rooms leading to beach views.
Lush, tropical gardens surround their round swimming pool and they have endless Coconut trees providing natural shade on the beach. Just beautiful.
Charela Inn has long standing, friendly staff, experienced bartenders and fresh, homemade cuisine. Vegetables, spices and meat come from their own farm! We enjoyed our typical eggs your way Breakfast and the morning we had Jamaican Breakfast, it was quite satisfying. What a wholesome plate 😋
Their meals are a fusion of Jamaican and French cuisine, representing the owners and I must say, their French Pizza gave the Italians a run for their money. Fantastic!
We would have loved to experience more of their French cuisine at Dinner, but we explored other spots on the beach. So next time! See you again soon Charela Inn!
For my Kingstonian fam, it’s not the journey, it’s the destination. Suga Tip: Leave town early in the morning on the way to and from Negril and restaurant hop in Ocho Rios, Montego Bay or both!
XoXo, Suga💖😎

We had their Soup of the Day, a tasty Caprese Salad, followed up by delish, flavourful, herby Shrimp Spaghetti Puttanesca and I swapped my Shrimp Alfredo to Tomato sauce. I still asked them to work on a Pesto or light White Wine sauce for the Pastas, but they were delectable nonetheless.

Thanks sooo much for making my Birthday even more special. There were two others in the house and we rocked it to different songs. Appreciated that Mr. DJ!
Kenny’s Italian literally got the entire staff to chime in for the Birthday serenade, like WOW, plus a Free Birthday Shot. Okrrrr Partayyy 💃🥃🥃🎉
Thanks for showing Suga Amore always…I returned the following night for Drinks too. Dangerous Bartender you have there, but not calling any names 😃💖

Fairly new from welcoming first guests last year and published earlier this year by The Jamaica Observer, we learnt that US civil rights attorney, Dana Kurtz opened Blue Skies Beach Resort (Ig: @blueskiesbeachresort) and realised her dream. This led to her also driving the dreams of aspiring Jamaican Chefs.
I can appreciate the old authenticity of shacks and huts on Negril beach, but appreciate modernizing it even more. Negril is one of the top tourist destinations in the world and we should move with the times and strive to keep it as such.
If strolling on Negril’s 7 mile beach, you cannot miss the Blue Skies Beach Resort. Bright blue and new furnishings on its wooden sea deck with not one, but 2 bars and blazing music. They also advertised having the best Coffee on the beach, but we were on a Rum run.
Fast forward to night time, we approached from Norman Manley Boulevard where they have a bit of construction happening for greater things to come. There was a Baby Shower happening on the top deck, but we were still able to get suitable parking.
With the event happening, more staff should have been on deck (literally) that night, but Chef Sanika Clarke picked up double duty and greeted us like guests to her own home. She took our order and still attended to us even when our server, Veronica introduced herself to us mid-service. Veronica was quite hospitable as well.
Blue Skies Beach Resort focuses on Jamaican cuisine, but had International and Italian options as well. We enjoyed the enhanced flavours of each dish by local herbs, spices and fresh farm veggies, topped off by freshly made, scrumptious dessert made by Chef Sanika herself.
ðŸ´Fried Farm Fresh Okra (delish!)
Blue Skies Beach Resort is definitely #SugaEndorsed.
