 Christmas Dinner At Kokobana In Paramaribo

" DJ playing in restaurant Kokobana Paramaribo on a Saturday night."


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? As a Surinamese person, Christmas means adding on some extra pounds for me.😎😂 We Surinamese people love to eat! In case you're new here don't forget to hop onto my Story Time U.F.O. by subscribing. That way you'll be the first to receive my adventures and stories straight to your inbox. Gasp, excuse me as I have to take a deep breath to reflect on how fast time went by. We're already in December and in a few days, the year will end.🎆🎇👀 I want to thank all of you for supporting my blogging journey this year. Your views kept motivating me to create new content and to step up my game when it comes to expressing my creativity!🍷Looking at what my blog has become I can only be grateful for the journey as I keep having faith in the future. 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.

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

Hotel Torarica

I am back with a new Story Time episode. Fingers crossed that my schedule allows more posting this year. I have a lot of stories to share with you from my different adventures. In this adventure, we are having a pool day at hotel Torarica in Paramaribo. When I filmed this video I had just reached my first 10.000 views on Youtube. That was a while ago when I just started my Youtube journey.  Filming for Youtube and my blog has been quite the learning journey. From all the technical difficulties to the content I lost and figuring out how to get better shots. But when you are as determined as I am you learn while you are on the go. I am excited to see what fun content I'll create in the coming year. It helps a lot when you subscribe to my blog by filling in your e-mail address when that Sto
