The Rousseau Sisters Deliver A Taste Of Jamaica On NBC’s TODAY Show

Five months after showcasing the best of Jamaican cuisine on NBC’s TODAY Show at Sandals Dunn’s River, Two Sisters Jamaica co-principals Suzanne and Michelle Rousseau returned to the broadcast in New York on Thursday, July 23, to share exciting news alongside fresh new recipes.

Now serving as culinary directors at Negril’s Rockhouse Hotel, the Rousseaus shared news of their new roles with hosts Jenna Bush Hager and Sheinelle Jones before demonstrating two signature recipes — smoked trout ceviche and crispy jerk calamari.

Referring to Rockhouse Hotel and Restaurant as a place close to their hearts, Michelle dropped a quick hint about what diners can look forward to when the new menu debuts later this year.

“We are evolving the menu. We are going to bring in some Caribbean flavours with a bit of Mediterranean flair,”
Michelle teased, hinting at a new coastal-inspired direction.

While preparing the smoked trout ceviche, Suzanne highlighted how integral fresh ingredients are to the vision behind the new menu.

“The point for us is how do we bring healthy, coastal flavours to the menu,” Suzanne said.

Echoing similar sentiments, Michelle emphasised the importance of crafting a menu that captures the relaxed spirit of the island.

“You want to eat the kind of food that is really going to feel appropriate after spending a day at the beach or by the pool,” Michelle noted.

The sisters were previously featured on March 27, 2026 during The TODAY Show’s two-day broadcast from Sandals Dunn’s River. There, they taught Bush Hager and Jones how to prepare ackee wontons and ginger beer cocktails, bringing authentic Jamaican hospitality to a global audience.
