Enjoyed it so much our first time, we came back! Wonderful people and amazing food make this an excellent experience for anybody looking to enjoy a few hours together around the kitchen. The views are fantastic too!! Not to be missed...
Great experience with fun, down to earth folks! Adam and Nicole (and Zoey and Petal) were just all around fun and friendly. We enjoyed cooking, learning, and laughing with our hosts, and with our fellow "chefs" from Iowa. My wife Melissa and I were celebrating our 14 year wedding anniversary, and thoroughly enjoyed spending our special time with them. As soon as we walked in the door, we felt welcomed. The food was great, too! We certainly will repeat these receipes at home. It was nice to be able to take home recipe information. The only disappointment was that we forgot to purchase some of her secret recipe "made with love" hot sauce on the way out---as it too was excellent! Overall, what can I say that hasn't been said in the almost 600 reviews---great food, great fun, great experience, and super nice folks! Thanks Nicole and team for a wonderful day in Antigua! See you for sure next time we visit! Martin and Melissa
From the beginning, reserving this outing, Nicole's husband Adam was extremely helpful with gathering information about getting a taxi to and from their home, which is up on a hill with a gorgeous view of the landscape and water. We were six in the class, and one had already taken Nicole's classes twice before, which is high recommendation in itself. After welcome juices, and with Nicole's very easygoing leadership, we measured, mixed, poured, and fried. Then while things were taken in and out of the oven, pureed, and prepared for presentation, Adam treated us to a tasting of six Caribbean rums. Our lunch was sumptuous and delicious. We ate on the huge veranda, got to know one another a little better, and enjoyed the views. We left with full bellies and print-outs of all the recipes. Both Nicole and Adam are wonderful hosts and teachers, very down to earth. High marks for every aspect of this class.
We signed up for an excursion to Nicole's Table on our cruise ship stop in Antigua. We had been to Nicole and Adam's previously and knew we were in for a great time. Food was stupendous, their home was gorgeous, the atmosphere was so fun! If you're thinking of trying it out, don't think twice about it. Totally worth it! *If you book on your own and need to acquire your own taxi, go to the taxi stand and ask for Francine or "Blondie." She was so friendly and helpful. She delivered us on time for the class and came back to pick us up and got us back to our ship in plenty of time. Her fare was $8/pp per way. Very fare for the distance she drove.
We enjoyed every second of our class with Nicole. Her whole family was so warm and engaging, and we shared A LOT of laughs. We also learned a ton about cooking and RUM. We enjoyed the company of the other participants as well. And the setting of the house could not be more perfect! While the baby slept for much of the class (no reflection on Nicole and Adams' presentations!) she was welcomed without reservation. It was, for us, a perfect day in Antigua, and we highly recommend it!
