5.00I would highly recommend this excursion. This was one of my first excursions and it set the tone for understanding a bit more of history of the Curaçao food history . Hilma also gave us some insight on some other wonderful food restaurants and tourists places. I don’t think it hurt that I celebrated my birthday with the cook and another participant. One tip you will have fun cooking and learning so much about yourself after the class! Book it 💕

1.00Never was able to appear due to island time, left when docked but bus left so took a taxi but was unfamiliar with area. Spent 350 dollars for excursion plus taxi and received absolutely nothing! A horrible experience with Viator. Very disappointed 😞

5.00If you love food and are going to Curacao, this cooking class will be a highlight of your trip. Helmi creates a congenial atmosphere that weaves delightful island info with her own experiences.

5.00We really enjoyed the cooking workshop. The location is very cozy. We had a nice mixed group. First we got an explanation from Helmi about a local fruit and herbs. And the lime fish. Then we started working on the actual delicious recipes. After 1.5 hours of cooking, we sat at a full table with all our homemade dishes! Nice wine and homemade iced tea. Thanks Helmi for this top morning, we wouldn't have missed this for the world

5.00The experience was fantastic, the chef was amazing, the experience overall was better than 10 out of 10. I would recommend this experience to everyone that comes on the island.
Just a wonderful experience in learning something new that tastes good.

5.00THIS was a fun day!!! Had so much fun making new foods that I hadn’t made before and tasting new foods I didn’t have a chance to try. My wife who doesn’t cook at all had the best time actually making food. I would fully recommend this to anyone whether they be just foodie eaters but especially to those who like me like the challenge of cooking something new. Helmi is a wonderful host and she will entertain you and teach you something new.

5.00Excellent entertainment with knowledge of fresh fruits and vegetables and how to prepare the dishes of the Caribbean. She was patient and encouraging. Chef had helpers to assist the guests in preparing foods and did much with each guest. All questions were answered no matter the level of experience of the one who asked. Nothing was silly or unimportant to the Chef. She was also accommodating to the disabled guest. I want that book!
Beautiful Curacao food in a wonderful setting. Not to be missed.

5.00What a fabulous morning spent cooking local Caribbean cuisine with Helmi in her kitchen in Williamstead, Curacao. Our group cooked beautiful recipes of Helmi and then shared a banquet of food together for lunch. The Hospitality and grace of Helmi and her staff made this truly a memory making experience on this island. New friends have been made and I have a beautiful set of recipes to make at home.
