Hello my dearest Story Time friends from around the world, how are you? I am excited to share this new Story Time food adventure with you. Make sure you subscribe to my blog by entering your e-mail address when you see the Story Time U.F. O. pop up on your screen.👾That way I can zap my adventures straight to your inbox.👽And you will be the first to be notified when a new Story Time episode comes out. In today's Story, we are going on a food adventure in Paramaribo. After I had a wonderful time enjoying my breakfast Etagere at Tangelo's I went to Het Pannekoek & Poffertjes cafe to meet a dear friend of mine. Tangelo isn't far from Het Pannekoek & Poffertjes cafe. It's right around the corner on the famous Van Sommeldijckstraat #11. You can't miss it, it has a nice open terras design. When I arrived there I found a nice spot to sit. While sitting in this Surinamese restaurant you have a great view of the street. At night this street can be very busy. It's a popular hangout spot for locals and tourists. While my stomach was processing the breakfast I had, I ordered a Pina Colada.🧉

" Pina colada from Het Pannekoek & Poffertjes cafe in Paramaribo"
When my Pina colada arrived I was already busy writing behind my laptop. As you guys noticed, I am getting a lot more writing done.😎😊That's something I am proud of. Making time, for this Story Time blog that I am so passionate about, just to keep you entertained and informed on your travel and food adventures in Suriname and other parts of the world that we end up in. This Pina Colada was more on the coconut side. I enjoyed taking sips while letting my inspiration flow out as I am working on my new book. Wish me lots of luck with that,😊when my friend arrived I put the laptop away to focus on our meeting together. At least I am one of those people who is polite like that. Suriname is a tropical country, which means you won't always be able to control the environment. While I was busy ordering food for us a fly got stuck in my straw. When I noticed it, it was too late. I didn't even finish my drink. I asked the waitress for some water, but she advised me to go drink water from their bathroom tap. After covid, there are just some things I don't mess with. Drinking water from a public bathroom tap is one of them. So I ordered some water instead, just to wash down the taste of the bug that was in my straw. The shrimp platter seemed interesting, so we ordered that with some fries and a chicken burger.

" Shrimp platter with fries and the chicken burger from het Pannekoek & Poffertjes cafe in Paramaribo"


The bread was a bit heavy but the shrimp was well seasoned. The fries were okay and the salad well, it helped fill the plate for the price that you pay. I don't mind dishing out the money to pay for food, as long as it's worth it! But because I had such an impressive and grand breakfast I didn't finish much of the food. Next time I will visit Het Pannekoek & Poffertjes Cafe again just to eat different dishes on their menu and then I'll write a story about that. More motivation for you to subscribe to my Story Time blog. After we left Het Pannekoek & Poffertjes cafe I went to Ketmien. A Surinamese store that sells beauty products, cosmetics, and more. I forgot to film the shopping part for you guys. Next time I'll make up for that, but I did manage to get some awesome products for my curly hair. Like Cantu for example, coconut milk hydrating curly hair cream and this honey hair food oil. All the hair products smell really good and I immediately noticed the results in the shape and structure of my curls after using these hair products. We went to Alegria, and I went to play games. But the machine got me, I should have known better.😂😒😓😔😕

" Sha hem Lieuw at Alegria Keizer straat in Paramaribo"
When I was a child my grandfather would take me to Alegria in the Keizer straat all the time to get Ice cream. I have positive memories of this place. It has changed a lot, for the better. I love the jungle theme that they implemented and the waterworks. It's been over a year since I last been to the Alegria in Paramaribo, and they have been busy upgrading the place. The waterworks was very relaxing for me, and the kid's playground is every child's playday fantasy. I wish they had something like that when I was a kid. Might build an adult version of this playground just to satisfy my inner child.👀😏. At Alegria in Paramaribo you have to buy coins if you want to play certain games. Just like the Alegria in Lelydorp, they sell Ice cream that is made here, and fast food like burgers, fried chicken, hotdogs etcetera. I made a video about my adventure through Paramaribo for you guys. I hope you enjoy it, and I can't wait to share more of my adventures with you.

A Foodie Adventure At Taman Indah Resort In Commewijne

Paint Shopping And Food Stop At Warung Resa

 Paint Shopping And Food Stop At Warung Resa Hello Story Time friends, welcome back! I'm taking you along on another vlog. This video was made on a hectic day. I split the content of my adventures into different parts. So make sure you subscribe and stay tuned. There are a lot of stories that I still have to finish. I wish I had more time for my creative projects. But with my lifestyle in Suriname that is not realistic! Anyway, we're going paint shopping in different stores. I visited HJ De Vries, Malhoe's Building Materials, and a Historex retailer. When we were done combing through stores for our project, I was hungry and tired! So we decided to go to Warung Resa. Their Javanese food reminds me of my late grandmother's and aunt's cooking. It's flavorful and authentic. We had the Gudanang and the Long Tong Tahoe. Both are traditional dishes in Javanese culture. Long Tong Tahoe is made with bean sprouts, Tahoe, and chicken. It's then drizzled with a spicy

Green Key Expo At Torarica

 Green Awareness Expo At Torarica Hola mi amigos welcome back to a new Story Time adventure! There is a vibrant city in the beating heart of the Amazon rainforest! This city is rich with multi-ethnic culture and flavorful food. Of course, I am talking about Paramaribo. Living in the Amazon Rainforest, we're surrounded by greenery. But these parts of the Amazon Rainforest haven't been unaffected by global warming. The recent droughts where multiple rivers and creeks were empty is an example. The gold mining and wood exploitation that happens in our jungles is affecting the beauty of our land. Protecting the Amazon Rainforest means protecting the lungs of the world. Green awareness is a topic that's often mentioned in this part of the world. Hotel Torarica organized a Green Key fair and of course, I had to visit! Now I can finally share the Story with you guys! Creating these Story Time episodes takes a lot of work. So I'd appreciate it if you subscribe and join our tri

Shadows Of Love

 Shadows Of Love Sometimes you must shuffle the deck a few times to be dealt the right hand. And sometimes you meet that King Of Hearts in the first move that the game will demand. In the shadows of love, there are many secrets hidden. Something about you felt familiar, calm, and at the same time forbidden. I wonder what the universe was conspiring when our paths crossed. From a distance, I felt your eyes capture my soul. Maybe this is a story that should never be told! But they say that if you want to enter the paradise of lovers you have to pay the toll! A friend once asked me a question, he said: " What is it you are looking for now that we are getting old?". I told him I wanted someone who could spark my mind, soul, and maybe my inner sexual being. After he exposed the beauty hidden in my poetry, thoughts kept flirting with this hidden feeling. Sometimes we need the right people to ask us the right questions! But sometimes when the ones we hide in our hearts want to kno

Story time with Donovan Dongo, Dongo brothers selected for W.W.E

   Storytime with Donovan Dongo, Dongo Brothers selected  The Dongo brothers holding the Surinamese flag in front of the  W.W.E performance center in America. Today I have some good news for the people of Suriname. I know I am a bit late with this story, but what can I say. I have been having problems with my Internet provider for a while now.  If you live in Suriname, you probably can relate. But on with Storytime, today we are going to talk about the Dongo brothers.  These guys have proven that dreams do come true, with a lot of hard work and effort.  The World Wrestling Entertainment (W.W.E) has selected Donovan and Leandro Dongo to represent Suriname. They made it past their last tryouts and were selected out of 30.000 applicants. The Dongo brothers have proven what they are made of, but they have also put Suriname on the world map when it comes to wrestling entertainment.  Donovan Dongo shares his experiences with Storytime in a video he recorded. But since I have a

Blogger notes: Happy new year! Storytime in 2022

Happy new year, Storytime in 2022 Hi guys, I want to wish all of you a happy new year. I am learning to stay positive no matter the circumstances. Throughout the years I have become a professional at it. The weird thing is, the better I get at it the better my skills become. I have to say I am proud of myself for getting through last year. There were some painful lessons, as usual. I have come to learn that they are a part of the journey that helps me build my successes. The more I embraced positivity the less my anxiety became.  Anxiety can be a messed-up demon, but the warrior in me kind of grew tired of it and decided to stab it. That's the problem when you know how strong you are.  The only thing is, I just wasn't in a hurry to grow up. Especially if you grew up in the public eye like I did. But I have no regrets. Because each step that I made in life also led me to beautiful people and beautiful experiences. The more content I feel with my life, the more my inn
