Kwatta Market Experience, Suriname!!
We went to the Market on the Kwattaweg, usually opens on the Wednesdays and the Sundays. I think because of the Pandemic now, it's open everyday to try to regulate the flow of people, you can find everything at the market, from produce, meat, fish, food, vegetables, etc...

Surinamese FOOD TOUR of the Kwatta Sunday Market - Indian & Indonesian Food | Paramaribo, Suriname
With another morning Paramaribo, Suriname upon me, I headed out to go on an epic food tour! Join me as I try some of the best Surinamese Indian and Indonesian food at Kwatta Sunday Market!
My day began early on Sunday morning at the Royal Torarica Hotel, a beautiful, 4-star hotel with 105 rooms. This place is like a boutique hotel in the middle of downtown!
Sunday in Paramaribo is Market Day, so I couldn’t wait to do as the locals do. I had visited the Chinese and Indonesian markets the previous Sunday and had loved them, so I couldn’t wait to visit Kwatta Sunday Market! It’s also open on Wednesdays.
I met up with my boy Jan from Jenny Tours, who took me to the market. We passed through the downtown area, where there are tons of 200-300-year-old Dutch wooden buildings, which are part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site!
We arrived at the market and passed by a vintage clothing market, some produce, and food. The market is super crowded. We saw some brown beans with rice and chicken, which is the national dish of Suriname! I also saw Indonesian food and Indian food, including jalebi!
There were 8 or 9 food vendors and the variety was huge, between the local, Indian, and Indonesian foods. I tried the brown beans with barbecued chicken and rice first. The beans were a little al dente and really nice. The chicken had a nice glaze on top and reminded me of chicken tandoori and had a nice, charcoal flavor and Chinese flavors. It was so good. It also contained some spicy chilies, which I mixed in. It had an African twist!
I had to cool my mouth down with some dawet, a Javanese drink made with rose, coconut milk, and lemongrass. It had some jellies in it and was really refreshing! It was almost like boba tea.
Then I had some ketan serundeng, which is an Indonesian sticky rice dish with coconut on top. It was amazing! The sticky rice was so sweet, it was basically a dessert! I loved it! It felt very tropical and was so freaking good!
Next was a Jewish cornbread with yuca called bojo. It looked super sweet and looked like a more dense version of flan. It was very sweet and contained cinnamon and a type of condensed syrup. It was really decadent and could have used some ice cream on top!
Then we tried some fried balls with chili, some Indian jalebi, and a flour vada with pepper chutney. The balls were bright red and made from yellow peas. They were super hot! The jalebi is fried dough in a sweet syrup. It’s ridiculously sweet and crunchy. It was a sugar overload! Then I tried the vada, which was very fluffy and airy and soft. The peppers added a lot of spice and it had lots of layers of dough in it! It was more like an elephant ear than an Indian vada. The spicy balls were the best!
From there, we went out to explore the market, where they were selling CDs, bananas, mangoes, papayas, chilies, ginger, eggplant, and more! There are probably a hundred vendors, and all ethnicities were represented.
I tried a fruit with a slimy exterior and a big seed in the middle. I bought a jar of mango chutney. Then we entered the fish market. Everything was really fresh! It was sensory overload with the sights and smells. There were also chicken, shrimp, venison, and more. It was amazing watching the fish butchers work! This was a real, authentic market experience!
There was a barber shop in the middle of the market, as well as a smoked catfish area! Past that is a huge produce section, and outside is second-hand clothing mostly from the Netherlands. Then, I tried some spicy ginger beer. It was pure, potent ginger with lemongrass and sugar. What an epic market tour!

Surinamese CHINESE & INDONESIAN Breakfast Markets Tour | Paramaribo, Suriname

My buddy and guide Imro from Jenny Tours took me to Independence Park. On Sunday mornings at 6:30, people bring their birds to show them off!
I was super hungry and couldn’t wait to eat! We arrived at the Chinese market, where there were yellow tents selling Chinese street foods. I saw my favorites, pork buns! They also had lots of dumplings. It took me right back to my time in China!
I got a pork bun, a chicken bun, chicken shumai, beef balls, and pork shumai. I started with the pork bun, which I can eat every day in China. It was super juicy and had a nice, flavorful sauce. The pork was really nice and tender and the bun itself was really flaky. It tasted almost the same as the ones in China!
The chicken shumai with soy sauce took me back to Shanghai! The beef ball was gamy and dense. Meanwhile, the pork shumai was tasty and airy. It was my favorite! The only thing that took away from the authenticity was the fact that I was eating it with a fork!
The chicken bun was so good and was filled with chicken and a rich, red-orange sauce. It had more meat than the pork and was the better of the two!
Then we saw some fresh and fried tofu, buns with cream inside, chicken, pork, buns, and even Chinese pizza!
Further along are vendors selling vegetables, including some I had never seen before. There was a type of eggplant that I wasn’t familiar with, some frozen seafood, and roasted duck! There were also sausages, which I couldn’t wait to taste!
The sausage looked like chorizo and was coated in a delicious, Chinese sauce. The wrapper was tough, but the pork inside was tasty and super fatty! I also got 5 fried fish balls on a stick. It wasn’t my favorite, but it was decent. It needed hot sauce!
This Chinese market opens every Sunday at 7 a.m. There are so many things to try! Then I got some sugarcane juice, which was so sweet and refreshing!
From there, Imro took me to the Javanese market, Saoenah Markt. It’s the biggest Indonesian market in Suriname. People from Indonesia immigrated here in the late 19th century.
I found a vendor making Indian vada almost immediately. There were lots of vendors selling greens. I could se stomach and tons of other dishes like fried banana, satay, and small plates.
I got some liver satay in a rich sauce, fried banana with peanut sauce, and a lumpia with spicy ketchup. The liver was so dense and the sauce had a peanut-like flavor. It blew my mind and was the best liver ever! The deep-fried banana was like a plantain and reminded me of a maduro. It was sweet and spicy! The lumpia was stuffed with tasty vegetables. There was some nice egg in it. Everything came to 15 SRD, or just under $2 USD.
Next, I got a coconut and rose milk juice with small jellies on the bottom. It was sweet and refreshing. I was loving the diversity in Surinamese cuisine! Then I met a subscriber named Monica. There were clothing and produce vendors there.
The heat was killing me, though! I suggest getting an ice slushy. Next, we headed to a third market that sells clothing, produce, and wine made from cassava. It contained 2% and was nice and light. It had a rosy taste and was a little bitter and earthy. I loved it!
There were also vendors selling birds like picolets and parakeets. There were also fruits soaking in vinegar, clothing, CDs, and more.
I hope you enjoyed my Surinamese markets breakfast tour! If you did, please give this video a thumbs up, leave a comment, and subscribe so you don’t miss any of my upcoming travel/food adventures!

Authentic SURINAMESE Street Food Breakfast + Central Market Tour | Paramaribo, Suriname
On my first morning in Suriname’s capital of Paramaribo, I headed out bright and early to have an authentic Surinamese street food breakfast. Come along with me as I try some of the local cuisine and go on a tour of the Central Market!

Check out my top videos!
My buddy and guide, Imro from Jenny Tours, took me to Cafetaria De Smaak to start my day. I was starving and could not wait to eat and explore!
In the restaurant, there were lots of dishes on the menu, including small shrimp, chicken, steak, fish, and potatoes with kidneys. They’re basically different protein salads and they all looked so good!
The breakfast dish has a Dutch name. You usually get some bread and try one dish, but I got a bit of everything: fish, kidney with potatoes, beef, shrimp and veggies, and more. It was like a Surinamese thali! I took a piece of bread and stuffed some shrimp inside.
The shrimp had a light and tasty curry. I couldn’t get enough of it! The salty fish wasn’t too salty but good. I had some super hot coffee with it. The best thing is, this breakfast will only cost you between $1.20 and $3 USD.
Next, I went with the local specialty, which was like a chicken salad with mango. It was mushy and had a nice sweetness to it. Then I went with the beef, which was tender and had a rich sauce. It was super tasty with the bread. Then I went with the minced meat, which was really great and was light on the spices. The potatoes and chicken kidneys were fantastic. I love organ meat!
Then I took everything on the plate and mixed it together. The mix reminded me of something I’d had in Thailand. There were lots of different flavors and textures and was so good! I’d never had anything like it before!
From there, we headed to a local market. I wanted to get a look at local life and maybe get some more food! We passed by lots of restaurants and 5-star hotels. There were also souvenir shops. Because it was 9 a.m. on a Saturday, there weren’t a lot of people around. There was lots of Dutch architecture in the city center.
We headed to the market, where we found a man mending broken shoes. There were a lot of women selling fresh produce like lychee. The women didn’t like being filmed, but they let me film the vegetables. As we continued, I started smelling the fish in the fish market!
We found some dried shrimp and some incredible-looking smoked fish. We got a smoked catfish and sampled some of the meat. It wasn’t my favorite but there weren’t any bones! There were also some crabs hanging on the outside of some barrels. Further on were lots of shrimp and huge catfish roe. There were vendors cleaning crabs as well!
There were also vendors cleaning fish. It smelled really fishy there! I was the only foreigner there, which made it a really immersive experience.
From there, we headed to the meat hall, which has lots of chicken on the right and fish on the left. It felt like I was in a market in Africa! The vegetable area was more like a wet market in Manila. They had lots of vegetables I’d never seen before. My allergies were acting up, so we got something for that!
Then I got a slush pom de citerre, which was like condensed rose milk with coconut. It was refreshing and super hydrating! It cost 6 SRD, or just under $1 USD.
Next, I went on the hunt for some masks. We arrived at ReadyTex, where there were some wooden crafts but no masks. My favorites were the wooden foldable chairs, which were 1,250 SRD, or about $140 USD. I found a nice Suriname soccer jersey and two for my nephews.
The heat was starting to get to me, but at least it wasn’t humid! My hunt for a mask continued.
I hope you enjoyed exploring the Paramaribo city center with me! If you did, please give this video a thumbs up and leave me a comment. Also please subscribe so you don’t miss any of my upcoming travel/food adventures!

Back in the summer of 2020, I partnered up with my friends at Jenny Tours to explore the South American country of Suriname. This tiny country along the continent’s northern coast is also South America’s smallest, but there’s a ton of unique things to do there, especially in its capital city, Paramaribo.
I spent a total of roughly 72 hours exploring and eating my way through Paramaribo, and it’s an experience I’ll never forget. Whether I was experiencing local life first-hand at the Central Market, seeing river dolphins play in the confluence of the Suriname and Commewijne Rivers, or meeting local artisans at the Amerindian craft market, every day in Paramaribo was an adventure.

Suriname also has an interesting history, and because of colonialism and its after-effects, people from all over the world came there to work, whether by force or by their own free will. Because of that, the country has a unique cultural background unlike any other place on Earth, with African, Indonesian, Chinese, Indian, Dutch, and Amerindian influences in its culture and cuisine.
I explored Paramaribo’s diverse cuisine everywhere from the Chinese, Saoenah, and Kwatta Sunday Markets to a pair of its unique Indian restaurants. I mixed in some African flair at Souposo and Javanese foods at Jakarta Restaurant, and even experienced a Brazilian block party!
But I don’t want to tell you too much about Paramaribo. Instead, I want to show you! So come with me as I spend 72 unforgettable hours in Paramaribo, Suriname!

Indonesian STREET FOOD Tour & Craft Market Shopping | Lelydorp, Suriname
With my time in Suriname slowly coming to a close, I decided to head out to an Indonesian village called Lelydorp outside of Paramaribo! Come along with me as I try some delicious Indonesian street food and go shopping in the local craft market in Suriname!
Ninety-five percent of the people in Lelydorp are Javanese. They first came here about 130 years ago and brought their food and culture with them. The food is off the charts! We were also going to check out the wood market and see them make some pottery!
Lelydorp is on the main street heading out of Paramaribo. I could see supermarkets, banks, food halls, and more. First, we headed to the pottery market. We had to head down a bad road with potholes and mud holes to get there.
The pottery was amazing! The potter starts by burning some tree bark, which he pounds into powder and mixes with clay. Then, he shapes it into cups, vases, mugs, statues, and more. Then, he bakes it. It’s all black!
Next door is his father’s store, where he makes wood creations. There was a caiman stool and a jaguar bench. The caiman had a cool design on it. I love crafts. Then we headed to a see a man who works with wood who only has one arm!
At the wood shop, I got to see the workers make lots of creations like cups, little boats, plates, paddles, and sculptures of caimans and armadillos. There was another guy sanding huge planks of wood. There’s a big mix of things, but they’d be hard to take home because of their size.
It was super hot and I couldn’t wait to eat some delicious Indonesian food. We reached some food vendors. There were six in total. They were selling things like yuca, chicken feet, fried banana, kidneys, saoto soup, noodles, chicken, satay, and more. I went with the chicken satay with soy sauce and peanut dressing.
The satay was so tasty. It took me right back to Asia! The peanut dressing was unbelievable and the chicken was so juicy! The dressing was sweet and nutty and so fantastic! It only cost us $0.80 USD.
From another vendor, we got some refreshing dawet and lumpia with no egg, just veggies. I also got some boiled vegetables with spicy peanut sauce. I could see spinach and sprouts in it. The vegetables were incredible, but it wasn’t spicy. It was moist and had a nice crunch. I was blown away by it! The peanut sauce made it! I couldn’t get enough of it!
Then, I dove into the lumpia. It was filled with vegetables! The peanut dressing was more like a sweet and sour sauce! It was a nice vegetable egg roll. I loved the sweet and savory combination! I washed it down with the dawet.
Next, we ended our meal with some Indo-style sausages. We went with the chicken sausage with sauce. It looked so good! The sausage was creamy inside, like chicken pudding, inside the casing. I could just suck it out! The Indo sauce was a little spicy and so tasty!
I hope you enjoyed coming with me to try Indonesian street food and seeing the craft scene in Lelydorp! If you did, please give this video a thumbs up and leave a comment. Also, please subscribe so you don’t miss any of my upcoming travel/food adventures!

ROADSIDE Surinamese INDONESIAN STREET FOOD + Wild Açaí | Traveling to Albina, Suriname
After spending two incredible days in the Surinamese capital of Paramaribo, I was on the move to my next destination, Albina! Come along with me as my friend and guide Imro takes me east to the border with French Guyana and I try some amazing Surinamese Indonesian street food along the way!
Subscribe Here!
Check out my top videos!
We started off with a ride through Paramaribo’s downtown area. It’s the oldest and most historical area of town and boasts lots of Dutch architecture. On our left was the Suriname River riverside, which is where the market is. We headed across a huge brige above the river to a different district within Suriname. Its capital is Albina, our next destination!
The roads are really well paved. They were done within the last 9 years. Before that, they were rocky, dirt roads. Because they’re paved, they’re really smooth and cut your travel time by a lot! We passed through the town of Tamarejo, which is 95% Javanese. There, we stopped at a place called Warung Lenny, which sells Javanese street food.
There were at least 20 different things to choose from! I started with some pommesitair juice, which tasted very healthy, almost like aloe vera juice. It was very refreshing! Then I got my feast, including noodles, two rices, beans, sprouts, peanut dressing, a spicy chili sauce, fried banana, and chicken.
The banana with the peanut sauce was delicious! It was crispy on the outside and soft in the middle. The sauce was creamy and spicy, while the chili sauce was crazy spicy! I don’t recommend that one. But the peanut sauce was so yummy and made the fried banana feel like a dessert. The Indo food in Suriname was blowing my mind!
The fried chicken was incredibly fresh and so different from chicken that has been frozen. It was juicier, more tender, and the skin was crunchier. I loved it with the peanut sauce!
The noodles were a little peppery and oily and reminded me of buckwheat noodles. They were a little thick and softer than al dente. The sprouts were crunchy and fresh, and the green beans were also super fresh! There were also some smaller green beans and some rice with soy sauce. I added the peanut sauce to the rice. The chunks of peanuts with the greens was phenomenal! I also added some to the veg, which took it to the next level!
I finished up by dumping the rest of the peanut sauce into the rice and veg and mixing it together. The sweetness and spice was an interesting combination I’d never had before and I loved it! This was some of the best food I’d had in Suriname so far!
From there, we headed on. We found a roadside hut where a woman was selling vegetables including eggplant, beans, and a bitter melon. The melon was bitter and crunchy. We moved on and saw lots of bush along the side of the road. We crossed another bridge and stopped at another roadside hut, where I tried a shot of 90 proof alcohol! It’s an aphrodisiac and was super strong! I also drank fresh coconut water and ate some fresh coconut meat!
After riding for a little longer, we stopped again and got some fresh acai puree in plastic bags. It was super thick and earthy and got all over me as I tried to drink it! We drove into a foggy rain storm as we continued deeper into the rainforest. We could barely see anything but it only lasted 2 minutes!
After passing some traditional, residential buildings, shacks, supermarkets, a school, and lots of jungle, we arrived in the small town of Albina! It was along the river, and across from us was French Guyana. From there, we’d take a ferry north to the Atlantic Ocean to reach Galibi.
I hope you enjoyed joining me on my 4-hour journey to Albina! If you did, please give this video a thumbs up, leave a comment, and subscribe so you don’t miss any of my upcoming travel/food adventures!

UNREAL Surinamese Breakfast in PARAMARIBO + Flying to Palumeu | Suriname
The next leg of my Surinamese adventure was finally upon me! Come along with me as I enjoy an unreal Surinamese breakfast in Paramaribo and then hop on a flight to Palumeu. I couldn’t wait to start this next adventure in Suriname!
Subscribe Here!
Check out my top videos!
My adventure started in the capital of Suriname, Paramaribo. My boy Imro from Jenny Tours and I started off our day at a local restaurant called Jennely’s Food House that sells at least 25 different breakfast options. Usually, you pick an item that they stuff into a piece of bread, but I wanted to try everything, so I decided not to have too much bread
The food looked like a unique mix of Indian, African, Dutch, and Indonesian, and looked really good. I was so excited to eat!
I got some cucumber, tomato, lettuce, beans, beef, pork, chicken curry, kidneys, and shrimp! I opened my bread and put some shrimp inside. They were nice and small and super tasty. The shrimp were oily and fresh and came in a tomato-based sauce.
Then, I went with the chicken liver. It was dense and so full of flavor! The bread made it super filling. I got some hot, black coffee between bites and then tried some of the pork alone. It was sweet and seemed to have some Chinese influences. The beef was darker and chewier than the liver, but it was hard to eat with the bread.
Next, I tried the pom, which is like a chicken salad with mangoes and vegetable. The sweetness from the mangoes was off the charts! Then I tried some beans, which reminded me of Thailand. Everything had a unique flavor. Then I took the bread and soaked up the remaining sauce on my plate!
Then I grabbed some liver, sprouts, and greens. It was crunchy, sweet, and spicy and was my favorite dish so far! I couldn’t get enough of it! You have to eat at Jennely’s when you come to Paramaribo.
Then, I went inside to talk to the woman working there. I had to tell her how amazing the food was!
From there, we went back to my hotel and grabbed my things. Sadly, I had to say goodbye to Imro, who wouldn’t be coming with me on the next leg of my trip. I packed all my things into a taxi and headed off to the charter airport!
This would be my first time on a chartered plane in several years. It’s an awesome experience because it’s usually just you and the pilot. It’s expensive, but it’s always worth it. I’d be flying to a spot near the Surinamese border with Brazil!
At the airport, I met my guide, Julius, from Met Travel Tours. We’d be flying Gum Air down to Palumeu on an 10-seat charter plane. They weighed me and my luggage and I chilled in the VIP area with other people who’d be flying on the plane.
I boarded the plane and sat in the back. There, I had awesome views out both windows! We took off! I was a little nervous because the turbulence in tiny planes is much worse than larger planes. But I was also excited to get to the jungle! We flew over the Brokopondo Reservoir, gold mines, and the Suriname River.
After 30 minutes, we landed to pick up 4 more passengers. There was a lot of turbulence as we flew through the clouds. I could see the rainforest below as we descended. We landed in a tiny, green airstrip, where four others boarded. We only had 15 more minutes to go!
We flew right over the Suriname River as we took off again, and I could see villages below. It was so beautiful! We descended again fast and landed at another landing strip in the jungle. We were going to have tons of adventures at Palumeu! I couldn’t wait!

JAVANESE Indonesian Food YOU MUST TRY In Suriname | Paramaribo, Suriname
As my first day in Paramaribo, Suriname wound to a close, my boy Imro took me out to have a Javanese Indonesian dinner that I still can’t stop thinking about before we checked out some Brazilian dancing and Surinamese street food! Come along with me as I continue my exploration of the beautiful melting pot that is Surinamese food!

To start our evening, Imro took me to a spot called Jakarta Restaurant. It’s one of the best Indonesian restaurants in the city!
I started with a rose milk with coconut, which was so tasty and refreshing. It’s a delicious Indonesian drink!
Next, I had a saoto soup and a second one with a gigantic shrimp in it. I also got a second drink that was similar to the rose milk, but it was green instead of pink. It was like condensed milk with an herbal taste!
I started with the jumbo shrimp, which was fantastic. The saoto soup contained tofu and sprouts and came with a chili sauce and a soy sauce. The soy sauce was dense and a little spicy and the spice hit me a little hard. I added some real spice to the other saoto soup, which contained an egg. The egg was nice and creamy and was so good with the tofu and sprouts!
Then I went out to the buffet and got a plate with a banana leaf. I got some rice, beef with potato and curry, chicken, thin noodles with chicken, satay, bamboo shoots with coconut milk, and eggs with coconut. I had a packed plate and couldn’t wait to dive in!
I started with the chicken satay, which was so tender and juicy. The sauce was unreal! I got satay all the time when I was in Thailand, but this was a little different from the Thai style! Next, I went with the beef with coconut, which was tender and coated in roasted coconut. Then, I tried the chicken, which was cooked so well and was super tender.
The bamboo shoots weren’t so spicy. I tried some with some amazing sticky rice. The beef curry had just the right amount of toughness and was like beef jerky. I was loving the variety of the food! There was also a spicy samba, which was fruity and had a nice kick to it! The lo mein with chicken was also great.
Then I moved on to the coconut shaves with pepper. I tried it with the egg. It wasn’t crazy spicy and had some nice greens in it. Next, I had some fish, which I tried with some glazy soy sauce that took it to the next level!
Then I went to get some tofu with sprouts, rice, and coconut. It was amazing! It was fried tofu drenched in soy sauce. It was crunchy, spicy, and really unique. It was my favorite dish so far!
After that, the owner brought me some huge shrimp, steak, a fried rice called picante, and veggies. The steak was super tender and had a mushroom sauce on it. It was phenomenal and was medium rare.
The vegetables contained broccoli, carrots, and cauliflower and was super moist and tasty. I took the shell off the shrimp. It was a little tough but it was worth it! The shrimp had been barbecued and had amazing flavor.
The picante came with a hot sauce that was like a spicy glaze. Then I tried the rice with a spicy red dish wrapped in a leaf. It was so good, but definitely spicy! I needed more rose milk to calm down the heat in my mouth!
Then we headed back out to see some dancers in the city center. It was like a Brazilian block party. There were vendors selling food, but I was too full to try it. It was still early, so there wasn’t much going on at first. I chilled had had a Brazilian beer called Schin, which was light but not bad. There were lots of people drinking and eating!
I hope you enjoyed coming with me to try Indonesian food in Suriname! If you did, please give it a thumbs up, leave a comment, and subscribe so you don’t miss any of my upcoming travel/food adventures!

Paramaribo: The Coolest City You've Never Heard Of ???????? (#108)
If you look at a map of South America very carefully, you'll notice a little country called Suriname in the top right corner. They don't speak Spanish there. They surprisingly speak Dutch, along with a ton of other languages. Gone are the Latin influences, instead you find touches of Indonesia, India, China, Holland and West Africa. It's a fascinating place, and I was going to start with the capital, Paramaribo, to get a better understanding of it.
Thankfully, there was plenty of food and Parbo beer waiting for me. But first, I had to learn Dutch - a sentence I never thought would escape my mouth.
