I tried wood seal carving!

  Hold on to your space seats, because the story time U.F.O. is back at it again, zapping fresh stories straight from the mothership into your inbox! 🛸 If you’ve been following my blog or my ShachemLieuw YouTube channel for a while, you probably already know I’ve been deep-diving into learning Mandarin and exploring more about my Chinese heritage. Well, my latest mission involved signing up for a wood seal carving class, and I liked it so much that I’ve officially decided to purchase a wood seal carving kit and turn this into a permanent hobby! 🧰✍️ Fun plot twist: we didn't actually work with real wood. We got to practice on erasers! But it was still super fun learning all the traditional carving techniques. (For those wondering, the Chinese carving knife used for this is called an intou or bidao —often referred to as an iron pen or a graver!) The class went pretty in-depth about the history of seal carving in China. Historically, seals (or chops) served as powerful credential...

"Shachem Lieuw at hotel Courtyard by Marriott in Suriname"



Hi guys, I'm happy to return with another Story Time episode. We're approaching the end of November. Doesn't time go by fast? Before you know it, the year will be at its end. In other countries, the season of giving is already celebrated. But here in Suriname, we're counting down the days to celebrate our " srefidensi". Srefidensi is a sranang tongo word that means independence, or being free and acting according to one's own will. On November 25, 1975, Suriname became an independent country. Previously, we were a colony that belonged to the Dutch. How they acquired us is another story! I'll be publishing stories regarding our Independence Day soon. Be sure to subscribe to my blog!👽👾🛸 By subscribing, you'll be the first to receive my adventures and stories straight in your inbox. In this Story Time episode, we'll be talking about " Meat Us". This restaurant is located within the Courtyard by Marriott hotel in Suriname. In my previous Story Time episodes, we already encountered "Meat Us". I'll be adding all links related to Courtyard by Marriott in Paramaribo at the end of this post. The last time I visited the Courtyard by Marriott, I was impressed by how much the place had changed. During our previous foodie adventure, where we had the opportunity to meet the executive chef, he explained to me that they were planning to open more restaurants. They aim to create a diverse foodie environment where you can find a wide variety of dishes from around the world, in a way that also represents our food culture in Suriname. We have dishes in our kitchen that come from all around the world. At Marriott, they also have an international team of chefs who work diligently behind the scenes to bring a flavorful experience to your table. I got some takeout and ordered the grilled chicken spinach burger from " Meat Us". When I opened my takeout order, I was impressed! The burger was massive! I loved that they managed to add the restaurant's logo onto the burger. The chicken patty was big and flavorful! I loved the burger so much that I'm drooling just thinking about it. Despite the long trip home, the fries remained crisp. I've made a video for you to take a closer look at the chicken spinach burger from Meat Us. I hope you enjoy it!
