Authentic Caribbean Cooking Class with a Culinary Matriarch

Step into a local chef's home kitchen and learn to craft iconic Caribbean dishes from scratch under the guidance of a renowned culinary matriarch. Eat what you cook — and take the recipes home forever.

What to expect

Your morning begins at a lively local market, selecting fresh produce with your host as she explains each ingredient's history and medicinal use in Caribbean tradition. Back at her home kitchen, you'll roll, season, and slow-cook dishes like jerk chicken, roti, callaloo, and coconut bake from scratch. The feast is eaten together around a family table with rum punch flowing freely. You leave with a handwritten recipe card, a full belly, and a new friend.
