“Phenomenal no-frills local spot serving authentic Surinamese cuisine just a few minutes walk from the Queen Emma Bridge, Rif Fort, and cruise terminal. The man who took our order was super nice and took the time to help translate everything for us.”

“THIS! look no further. Fresh and tasty food at a reasonable price. Come earlier or most stuff will be sold out by 2-3pm. I went here for lunch every day during my stay and explored the whole menu, all good. Order over WhatsApp ahead of time!”
