Beni's Christmas Palace In Suriname

 Beni's Christmas Palace In Suriname Just like in the photo above this text, I am okay but I am not completely okay. I feel awful on the inside and for a long time it was difficult to find the motivation to return to blogging.  Tomorrow's Christmas, so I mustered all of my strength to at least finish another episode. I've been gone for a while because as usual, life got hectic. But this time in a bad way! As you guys know a while ago I started a company in Suriname. Most of my days were spent creating Story Time episodes, working, doing social work or going along to get a taste of the field.  When we go to clients, sometimes I get to see awesome places. Or in between on our journeys we tend to make pitstops. This Story Time episode is supposed to be about my visit to Beni's Christmas palace. But let me tell you about what happened after that first. Just so you can understand how my Christmas spirit, transformed in the energy of mourning. People see the good, but I'l...

 Christmas Dinner At Kokobana In Paramaribo

Hello, my dearest Story Time friends from around the world!💓Tomorrow is Christmas and I'm happy to be back with another foodie and travel episode.🎄🎅🤶How are you guys planning on spending the holidays?

Now that's something we can drink too, as we embrace the days ahead of us. I got taken out for dinner unexpectedly on a Saturday night. The place I'm writing about isn't an unfamiliar restaurant here on Story Time. I wrote an article about them a long time ago and I remember that story being one of the articles that attracted a lot of new readers to my blog. Back then I was just starting to get the hang of blogging. It goes to show that the more you practice your craft, the better you become at it!😉

The city was crowded! December Paramaribo is known as the city to be! We even made it on the list of the top 10 New Year's destinations by CNN. What can I say? My people know how to party. When you get to Paramaribo Noord, you can notice the December parties happening! Expect to be stuck in traffic for hours during this time of the year. I walked into Kokobana and there was a D.J. playing music. We secured a seat and once we got settled in the waiter arrived to take our orders. They had a special menu for Christmas. I've added some pictures of that in my vlog. The staff was attentive and we didn't have to wait long to receive service. I ordered a mudslide cocktail and the Christmas chicken. My friend wanted the Amaretto sour and chicken pasta. Because I'm a sweet tooth, I had to get something for dessert. I ordered the Baileys tiramisu cake. I figured that it would match well with the mudslide cocktail that also has Bailey's in it.😻😋I was getting spoiled for Christmas, so letting dessert slide by me certainly wasn't an option!😝Right In front of us traffic was jammed with all the people trying to pass by. Some were hanging around on the streets and playing loud music as they brought out their own food and drinks to come hang out in Paramaribo. This is the typical nightlife and recreation in Suriname. The d.j. that Kokobana had hired was playing great music that kept us busy and entertained while we waited. It didn't take long for the food to be served to our table! As usual, we have no complaints. The food at Kokobana was delicious. I recommend that you give this place a try on your travels to Suriname. It's located on the Wilhelmina street in Paramaribo. In this area of the city, you'll also find a lot of other food and shopping options. Are you planning to travel for foodie adventures soon? Visit Expedia for amazing travel deals.
