Byblos Miami is finally checked off Suga’s list and worth it!
I experienced a marriage of Eastern Mediterranean cuisine with strong influences from both traditional and local ingredients Byblos !
Watch “Byblos for Mediterranean in Miami!” on YouTube here:

You just got to love servers that know the menu inside out with the best suggestions too!
The Duck Kibbeh’s flavours are out of this world, the roasted pine nuts add a tasty, fun crunch to the Hummus Royale, the Black Truffle is the way you should do rice all the time with flavours complementing each other and so outside of the box. Lastly, the roasted Lamb Shoulder melts in your mouth and although I prefer the original version, they certainly do Baklava with a twist.
Byblos is #SugaEndorsed.

A few weeks ago, Suga Taster, Taraja Jackson was in foodie heaven at Thai Villa, a traditional and unique Thai Restaurant in the stylish city of Manhattan, NYC.
Located on 5 E 19th St, New York,
the stylish space with dark-wood accents and ornate fixtures had an hour wait time since they had no reservations.
Taraja hopped down to a local rooftop bar and had Cocktails, then was called by the courteous staff of Thai Villa, who informed them that they were ready for their dinner party.
They were seated at the upper level, which overlooked the main restaurant. The ambience was perfect.
Don’t you just love Authentic Thai Cuisine?!
Suga Taster, Taraja enjoyed Chicken Satay, Pla Muk Tod (Fried turmeric coconut Calamari), Soft Shell Crab Mango Salad, Pad Thai (Shrimp, Rice noodles, bean sprouts, scallions, red onion, egg and peanuts. Gluten free), Ped Ron (Crispy Five Spice Duck) and Moo-Obb Nam Puaung Entree (Grilled marinated Pork).
Her overall experience was great, the food came out quickly and they shared the Appetizers which were quite filling. Both the Appetizers and Entrees were absolutely delicious at affordable prices and the service was on point! Suga Taster, Taraja gives them âââââ!

Although it’s known that Miami has some of the best restaurants in South Florida, foodie & Suga Taster, Jehan was pleasantly surprised by her experience at Rusty Pelican from arrival to departure.
Suga Taster, Jehan’s Breakdown:
“The hostess was quick to check the reservation and seat the 5 of us as we arrived. Shortly after, our server Mike T. came over, introduced himself, provided our menus and took drink orders.
Mike T. was quite attentive as the evening progressed and even ensured to note any food-based allergies.
The Appetizers and Main courses did not disappoint!
They lacked dessert options though and the two ordered did not hit the sweet spot. The Sticky Toffee Pudding is a warmed Date Cake served with brown butter pecans and caramel ice cream. The warm Cafe con leche consisted of white chocolate, cuban coffee, and cookies & cream ice cream.
Looks and Sounds great eh? Sadly, the date cake was dry and dense and the Cafe con leche left a lot to be desired.
Despite the disappointing Dessert, the experience, Mains and cocktails were still great and I will definitely be back” ~Suga Taster, Jehan Knight.

That’s right! We are in for quite a treat for Super Bowl 55 in Tampa Bay. The first time a team will play in their home town for the Super Bowl.
Tom Brady will be taking the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to their 2nd Super Bowl after taking care of fellow Hall of Famer, QB Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers 31-26. He was surely rewarded for it with $500k. It will be his 10th visit, looking for his 7th Win. If he’s successful, he will earn another $500k.
Who will he meet?
Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs are the Defending Champs. Their game in the AFC Championship was almost a blowout vs the Bills, 38-24.
So it will be the G.O.A.T vs the Best right now on FEBRUARY 7! Stay tuned!

Suga Taster, Jehan’s Breakdown:
Suga Taster, Jehan in Kingston 21, Florida was wowed by Krystal Powell’s Dynamic Cuisines Food Truck again!Â
Just when I think Krystal Powell cannot get better, she continues to create waves. So I couldn’t let a week in January pass before ordering.
Dynamic Cuisines Food Truck was launched on August 6, 2020 and since then I have been a faithful, weekly patron.
Once you follow her Instagram page, @kookinwithkryssi, you will realize that she posts the weekly “Pull-Up Schedule†that showcases where she will be with a particular day and time. She is no stranger to Pembroke Pines, Miramar, Davie, North Lauderdale, Margate and Miami.
Once you “pull up†to her food truck, please be prepared to always encounter a long line (yes… that is how good her culinary skills are) and once you place your order, you will have to wait 15-20 minutes as all meals are cooked to order. Still Reasonable!
I am yet to be disappointed and I usually place two to three orders at a time. Suga Bears in Kingston 21, go check out Krystal Powell’s Food Truck today!

After the NBA Playoffs historically came to a pause last Wednesday with Players refusing to Play as yet another Black man, JACOB BLAKE, was shot unjustly in the back by the Police, LEBRON, CP3, NBA Players reached out to BARACK OBAMA for advice.
OBAMA advised Players to play and maximize this opportunity to get their desired action items. Play resumed on Saturday under Commitments from the NBA & NBPA.
Pictured above is DENVER NUGGETS’ JAMAL MURRAY’S shoes. He says even though they are gone, they help him to find strength and to keep fight in this world.
The entire UTAH JAZZ team has now been registered to vote. Their DONOVAN MITCHELL has pledged $45k to the education of Jacob Blake’s children, which has been matched.
Countless efforts have been made by these NBA Players on and off the court. I applaud them and stand with them.
LUKA DON made his series Debut at just 21yrs before being eliminated and how he is already targeted by players.
We have a Game 7! Who you got? Murray or Mitchell? NUGGETS or JAZZ?
CELTICS are up 1 on the RAPTORS! KEMBA!
