Hidden Oasis & Funeral Vocals? A Typical Surinamese Birthday at Lolokukru! πŸŽ‚πŸ‡ΈπŸ‡· You know I can never resist an invitation when good food is involved! 🍽️ Recently, I was invited to a traditional Surinamese birthday party at Lolokukru in Paramaribo . I had never actually been to the venue before, but I’d heard nothing but great things about the atmosphere—and let me tell you, it did not disappoint. 🌴✨ Inspiration Strikes: The Pond & The Aquarium πŸŸπŸ’§ The moment you step inside Lolokukru, you realize you've walked into a hidden tropical oasis. Apart from their massive, lush Surinamese tropical garden and separate indoor hall, the first thing that caught my eye was a beautiful, serene pond. New Life Goal: I am officially obsessed. Now I want a pond of my own! 🌊 The Plan: I am 100% going to try to convince the boys to build one for me. Wish me luck! After all, being part of a construction start-up should have benefits.πŸ˜…πŸ—️πŸ› ️ They also have a fantastic indoor aquarium...

Roti roll from Roopram

Vegetarian Roti Roll at Roopram: Paramaribo Centrum Edition 🌯


Hello, my dearest Story Time readers from around the world! 🌍 How have you been? I am back with another Story Time, and today we’re diving into the famous Roopram Roti located in Paramaribo Centrum.

If you don’t want to miss my future adventures, make sure you jump onto my Story Time U.F.O.! πŸ›Έ

The Roopram Phenomenon

I’ve been frequently posting about the different Roopram locations I’ve visited over on my TikTok channel, and I’ve really appreciated all your feedback! 🀳 A lot of you mentioned you aren't the biggest fans of their roti. I get it—franchised roti produced in large quantities can’t quite compete with a traditional, homemade Surinamese roti. πŸ‘©‍🍳

However, judging by the crowds at every location, they must be doing something right! When it comes to Surinamese cuisine, Roopram has built an unstoppable brand—especially with their convenient drive-thru roti services. πŸš—πŸ’¨

The Veggie Experience πŸ₯”

During this visit, I wanted to test out their vegetarian roti roll. I headed to the Centrum branch, though I have to be honest: the staff wasn't quite as friendly as the teams at other locations. πŸ˜•

What’s inside? The veggie roti roll is a delicious mix of:

  • Aloo (potatoes) cooked in savory masala

  • Fresh long beans (kousenband)

  • All wrapped up in a soft roti like a burrito! 🌯

It’s the perfect, filling snack for when you’re in a hurry and need a quick bite on the go. πŸƒ‍♀️✨

Watch the Vlog!

I filmed my entire experience so you can see it for yourself. Check out the new vlog below! Enjoy the video, and don’t be afraid to share my stories with your friends and family. πŸ’–

Until next time, right here on Story Time! ✌️
