Meet Anjee

Anjee is a passionate Trinidadian home cook who grew up learning family recipes. With a background in food and beverage management and a degree to match, she has built a career as a culinary entrepreneur, owning and operating multiple food businesses. Anjee loves entertaining and sharing the vibrant flavors of Trinidadian cuisine with guests, offering a warm and authentic experience rooted in her deep love for cooking and community.

What to expect

Please note menu might vary. If there are particular dishes you are interested in trying, please include your request in the booking form.

Cooking experience: (1-30 guests) Join Anjee at her peaceful farmhouse, surrounded by lush nature and friendly animals, for an unforgettable Trinidadian cooking class near Fort George in the Port of Spain. Start with a refreshing welcome drink and snack before heading to the outdoor deck for a hands-on, 1.5-hour lesson in Creole cuisine. Learn to prepare a traditional Trinidadian meal using fresh, local ingredients - vegetarian options available. Your menu varies based on the season and the group size. End your immersive cultural and culinary experience on a sweet note with a homemade dessert from Anjee’s bakery.

Notes:
If you choose the optional alcohol add-on, Anjee offers local beer, wine or a cocktail.
If you selected the optional transport add-on, it includes round-trip minibus transfers from your hotel, port, or Airbnb in Port of Spain. Pick-up time is 30 minutes prior to the start of your experience. For cruise guests, your driver will be waiting at 10:30 a.m. just outside the cruise terminal exit, holding a sign with "Traveling Spoon" on it. We highly recommend booking the transport option so that it is convenient to get to and from Anjee's home. You will be dropped off at the port at 2pm.

Excellent experience here today! Anjee is an excellent host and a great cook. We did almost all of the prep for this meal and it was great fun. We even had a couple of little helpers that made sure we were doing it right. The curried chicken, roti and geera pork were outstanding. Curried potatoes with chick peas was a great accompaniment. Views were great and the weather was perfect. Transportation from the port was scenic and seamless. Strongly recommend you come here.

Anjee is not only a great host and knowledgeable cook, she is an outstanding teacher. The meal we ourselves prepared with her instruction was not only delicious but truly rivaled the Trinidadian dishes we've enjoyed at restaurants and friends' homes. We left confident of our ability to replicate them at our house...buoyed by Anjee's offer to call her any time we had a question. The view from her patio out over the entire city and waterfront is, in itself, a reason to book this experience, and the effortless pickup and drop-off made it a stress free excursion. Highly recommended!

Everything was great from the view of the city to the knowledge we were given while we were learning to cook shark and bake. She even took the time to give us tips on making stewed chicken!
