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

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!

BIG UP Chive Restaurant for Saving Lives During the Lockdown!

Chive Restaurant’s Ultimate Mac n’ Cheese with sauteed Shrimp

Figuratively of course 😃 But with no time or energy to cook and when you look on the clock and realise it is too late to play dress up and attempt #OutsideOutside, but would still like a delish late lunch… Chive Restaurant is one of the places to turn to. They are on 7Krave and Ends.

They were out of Marlin Canapes, but we enjoyed their Chive Curried Crab Cake, their signature Wings, the Chive loaded BBQ Bacon 8oz Burger and their Ultimate Mac n’ Cheese with sauteed Shrimp.

Crave for Chive satisfied! They remain #SugaEndorsed. Check out Chive Restaurant!

I Think J-Lo Understood the Assignment for the Met Gala, Do You?

[📸: Getty Images]

This year’s Met Gala theme was a  tribute to American Fashion.
We all know the Cowboy and Cowgirl was a big part of that. Somehow it wasn’t trending?!

J-Lo stepped right out!
That belt though…

One of the Best Dressed for me and there were few. Stay tuned to @sugalifestyle’s Instagram stories to see what was Hot & what was Not 😉

Defy All Odds. Let’s Do This! Happy Monday Suga Bears!

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but I think a lot of us do. A lot of us are NOT OK, including myself sometimes. Some of us ‘pivot till wi a trip or fall ova’. But the Earth is still spinning and even though it looks like it, God hasn’t come for the world yet. So we got to keep it moving.

Keep Persevering, Keep Thriving. Communicate with others, even persons you don’t know. You never know whose day you may make better. We’re in this together. Be Strong Suga Bears. Get to Work! 💪🏾

XoXo, Suga💖
