Ditch the Cashpoint: Why Foreigners Should Skip the Cashpoint ATMs in Suriname

Ditch the Cashpoint: Why Foreigners Should Skip the Cashpoint ATMs in Suriname (By Shachem Lieuw, Story Time Productions) Hey there, fellow travelers. Shachem here, and let me tell you, I've been bursting to share this with you for ages. Finally, the stars aligned, and I have a moment to put pen to paper (or fingers to keyboard, as it were). Lately, I've been seeing an increasing number of comments on social media from visitors like yourselves complaining about problems using their Mastercards and Visa cards in Suriname. The struggles are real, and I hear you. The truth is, while we're making progress, international Mastercards and Visas aren't accepted everywhere in this beautiful country. You'll find some high-end hotels and restaurants catering to tourists will gladly swipe your card. But don't expect the same level of acceptance when you're exploring smaller businesses, local markets, or venturing outside the main tourist hubs. It's not a universal...

Lasagna & Jalapeno Burger From Tulip Cafe In Suriname

 Lasagna & Jalapeno Burger From Tulip Cafe

" Lasagna from Tulip Cafe In Paramaribo"


Hola amigos! Don't worry, today's Story Time adventure won't be in Spanish.😂😎 But that won't make it any less flavorful, since you're tuning in to catch adventures from the only Dutch-speaking country in South America. Suriname has been hot lately! The heat makes me break out in enough sweat to create a mini-pool. Or at least that's when I am not indoors working from my cooled office. Over the last few months, I've been on the road more for this new venture; my partners and I are working to make a living. We'll dive deeper into that in the upcoming Story Time episodes. Being an entrepreneur requires a lot of hard work, sweat, and effort that people often don't notice. After we finish working on our projects, there isn't always time left to prepare food for the day. So we usually end up eating out. It is not always the healthiest option, but don't worry! We like to keep things balanced with home-cooked meals, and we have many friends who enjoy spoiling us. Besides, I do love sharing these foodie adventures with you! It allows me to showcase a unique side of my country, Suriname. They do say that food is love! Of course, we are talking about the flavorful love that Surinamese people carry in their hearts. One day, we were working on this project and got hungry. Our stomachs were rumbling with the expectation of savoring delicious food. Tulip Cafe was nearby and we decided to give it a try! Inside their cafe, they have cozy sitting spots. I liked that their menu offered popular snacks from their bakery, as well as various kinds of coffees and shakes. We ordered the lasagna and the Jalapeno burger! I loved the Jalapeno burger and certainly recommend that you try it if you get the opportunity to do so. It was juicy, and the Jalapenos added the right kind of sting to the overall taste of the burger. On the other hand, we weren't particularly fond of the lasagna. I like my lasagna juicy and cheesy. This lasagna was a bit too dry for my taste. It seemed almost as toasted and dry as the bread that came with it. If you tried the lasagna from Tulip, let me know what you think about it in the comment section. I created a vlog of my visit to Tulip Cafe, and I hope you'll enjoy it.
