Last week was tough and we just needed a kick. So my girls @mcnameeava @jdonelage along with my friend @olivierglissant headed down to @jasminecaribbeancuisine for some Caribbean flair. Of course, my grandson, Austin was there to greet us. It was steel drum night. So the music was 🙏🏽👍🏽🔥 We had a blast. Everybody’s happy. If you crave Caribbean food, you can’t go wrong. Check them out…You’ll feel the love!❤️ 💋 371 West 46th St. , NYC. And thank you to @jdonelage for the cool images! 💋 taken in Jasmine's Caribbean Cuisine by @nelsenaart
