Gabby Burgess of Suga Lifestyle with her AnnieB at EITS Cafe in Irish Town, Kingston, Jamaica [Date of Visit: Saturday, September 7, 2024]

It’s always great breathing in the fresh air in the Blue. Adding farm to table, freshly made food is Brawta!

Known for their Barrel Roasted Chicken, I switched things up, starting with their tasty Tomato Bruschetta (on bammy!) and tried the new lightly Curried pineapple Chicken which was seasoned so well…a fantastic balance, as it wasn’t too spicy. The sweet potato croquettes that accompanied it, were perfection. Loved it! Awesome dish.

Their Saltfish Fritters and Shrimp Pasta with herb Pesto are usually hits too.

***N.B. Not always Paw-friendly… Check in with the Owner first, to make sure the big ones aren’t there 🙂 Reservations recommended; Call +1 (876) 367-8191***

Remember, Balance is Key… Enjoy Jamaica!

Have a Great Weekend!

What are you doing for the last weekend of Summer?

by Brand JamaicaRestaurant Reviews & RatingsWhat's Hot

At the end of June just before Hurricane Beryl hit, we enjoyed an R&R weekend at Rafjam West (Ig: @rafjamwest) in Whitehouse, Westmoreland, quite close to Ivy’s Cove.

Watch highlights from our weekend here!

Though the house has about 3 or 4 rooms, we had the place to ourselves that weekend with a pool, bar and a private beach. The place was brand new, with tasteful, modern furnishings and all the amenities needed. Thankfully, it was not affected by the hurricane. Unfortunately, just a few trees came down.

Our meals were cooked to order. We enjoyed our Jamaican breakfast, Curried Chicken and Steamed Fish for lunch. Less options available, but the same high standard as that of Raf Jam in Irish Town, Kingston. Delicious.

We didn’t get a chance to visit the bar across the water that looked like a decent lyme, but next time. 

We visited Luna Sea Inn (also ok after the Hurricane) for dinner by the sea one night, which had great service. Our Steaks were delectable and the bartender was awesome.

We stopped by Cloggy’s on the Beach (Current operations unknown), on our way back and had tasty Curried Shrimp and Conch. A bit of a wait, but we weren’t in a rush. We chatted and enjoyed the the seaside view from our table, not venturing off near the water where there may be gators!

We enjoyed a quiet, scenic getaway weekend and happily recommend Rafjam West to your family and friends.

XoXo, Suga

Happy Friday Eve Suga Fam! Make it a Staycay and Enjoy the Long Weekend!

Missed me on Mello?

Want to Enjoy Easter, but stay on your Fitness Mission?

Easter Brunch or Dinner can feel just as special at home as they would at a restaurant with a little planning and prep.

Try these Dishes in the Kitchen:

1. DEVILED EGGS
An Easter classic. Great brunch side or appetizer.

Use hot or mild pepper sauce, try dill or a sweet pickle relish, use fat-dree mayo and add a sprinkle of fresh Chives for more flavor.

2. Not a Deviled eggs fan? Try SPINACH AND MUSHROOM QUICHE or one of my faves, a CALLALOO FRITTATA.

Ensure you use unsweetened Almond milk and a low fat cheese such as a part skim mozzarella.

3. VEGGIE SIDES

Take advantage of seasonal flavors and root vegetables to add colour nutritional value to your Easter table. Root vegetables include carrots, parsnips, beets, red onion and sweet potato.

4. CORIANDER AND LEMON CRUSTED SALMON with Asparagus Salad and Poached Egg

5. CARROT CAKE OR YOUR OWN VEGETARIAN EASTER BUN!

Use whole-wheat or spelt  flour (hulled, purer wheat), Unsweetened Almond milk, Cinnamon and Agave to sweeten instead of sugar.

If you aren’t Vegetarian, please also cook or bake with Olive oil or Vegetable oil, not Coconut oil. We will leave that debate for after Easter. 🙂

Have a Happy, Holy and Restful Easter.
Remember Balance is key.
