For me, cooking is like art — a way to express love, culture, and creativity.

 I had the pleasure of preparing a Caribbean spread for our guests, and sharing my culture through food is something I truly love. I also enjoy discovering and trying new cuisines, so this evening felt extra special. It was a wonderful night — every dish turned out delicious, and most importantly, our guests truly enjoyed it. On the menu: traditional chicken thigh stew with caramelized sugar, chicken curry wings the right way (just like my mom taught me), macaroni and cheese, green banana salad, carrot slaw, fried plantains in coconut oil, and a simple cake topped with honey-infused banana slices (I should have made a coconut cake though 🤪). Of course, my famous spiced rum punch for apéro, and for dessert, a Caribbean-style café gourmand. For me, cooking is like art — a way to express love, culture, and creativity. Anyone wants to hire me? Just kidding 😁😋💜

It does not end here, there is that perfect seat! the ultimate bar swing! hoorah! The wooden fixture with swing seats for my relaxation; total comfort that's absolutely amazing! This calls for a refreshing drink; maybe a cocktail or champagne.  A little chitchat with a friendly bartender who is always smiling and ready to serve, a compilation of soothing Caribbean music and a view of the breathtaking sunset. What more can I ask for? I ndeed ...
