An event not to be missed with personable local chef

Bryan_B, May 2022

Had an absolutely fabulous time cooking with local chef, Carrie Welcome! Not only was Carrie an amazing cook, she was able to adapt her recipes on the fly to accommodate my allergies. We thoroughly enjoyed the fried tuna, steamed snapper, creamy garlic shrimp, rice and black beans, cauliflower, carrot, broccoli compilation and fried green plantain. If you have the opportunity to go the Roatan Farmer’s Market in Politilly Bight, don’t miss it! It made the cooking class into an event, seeing some of the eastern island and touring the garden of the farm. Loved listening to Carrie’s stories about life in Roatan. Highly recommend this tour!

Response from Host, May 2022
