Popped out to my first ever I ♥️ R&B Wednesdays—usually at but this one was at and it was a whole vibe. 🖤They had bars, food stations, and yes… ho**ah for $70 😅 (I still paid it tho, so whatever). Tried + and baybeee—8.5/10. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and the owner’s energy made it even better. Definitely a must if he’s cooking. 👏🏽They really kept it R&B all night with a few fun mix-ups—10/10 would go again. 🎶Check them out & tell them I sent you ✨Follow for more gems →

Back in March, I came out of retirement for one night only to surprise my sis on her first night at — because we always show up for our people 💕 Y’all know I don’t really do the lounge/club late night scene anymore, but sometimes the best nights are the ones you didn’t plan. I don’t even drink these days, but of course I brought a bottle for the crew and had to support my bro .clay_ too. It was giving last minute magic and the kind of fun we didn’t know we needed. 🥂✨

The girlies and I pulled off the most iconic surprise for our good sis .anni — a full-on awkward 30th birthday shoot at Gateway Mall! 😂✨ From clumsy moments to loud laughs and all our wild personalities on display… it was giving chaotic sisterhood, and honestly, we wouldn’t change a thing.

We’re a hilarious bunch of women, and that’s our superpower. 🩵💜

Everything We Ate

This new upscale spot in Manhattan is a vibe! From its stunning grass wall and flowers to the mouth-watering dishes, Dock’s Off 5th is the perfect spot for any occasion. Whether it’s your birthday, date night, or girls’ night out, it’s a must-visit.

What We Ordered: (3ppl experience)
🍸 Lemon Drop Martini $18 (9/10)
🍹 Brunch Punch Goblet $18 (9/10)
🌮 Tuna Won-Tacos $19 (9/10)
🥪 Blackened Salmon BLT Sliders (2) $22 (8.5/10)
🦪 Mussels $19 (8.5/10)
🍝 Seafood Linguini $41 (6-7/10)
🍖 Bourbon BBQ Glazed Lamb Lollipops (4) $54 (10/10)
🍗 Stuffed Peri Peri Chicken $39 (8/10)
🍰 Strawberry Cheesecake Sundae $16 (9/10)

Our Experience:
We went late on a Saturday (kitchen closes at 11:30pm). The DJ was amazing and the music definitely keeps you on your feet. Service was top-notch, thanks to Megan—she’s the best! The shrimp in the linguini was perfectly cooked, but the white sauce wasn’t our favorite. The sliders were spot-on, and the drinks were a hit. Be ready for a possible wait, even with a reservation.

If you saw I posted a restaurant review of my mom , my aunt , and myself spending Mother’s Day .

However, here is how our time really went down. Lots of laughter, jokes, in denial conversations and of course happy tears. HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO WATCH THE ENTIRE VIDEO. I don’t have much financially but I try my best as much as I can with what I have for those around me. My mom and I don’t have the best relationship but she’s still my mom and I try.

Hope you enjoyed the video.

Please check out my review on for full details on everything we ate and our experience.

Happy Mother’s Day 🫶
