Bahamian Beachside Cooking and Cocktail Class in Nassau

Discover the secrets to creating the distinctive flavors of Nassau’s cuisine during a 3-hour cooking class. Under the careful guidance of a professional chef at Compass Point Resort’s Nirvana Beach, you’ll learn how to cook classic Bahamian specialties, such as conch chowder and Junkanoo chicken. Prepare several dishes as well as a tropical drink and then enjoy your feast for lunch! Numbers are limited to 10 people, ensuring an intimate experience with a small group of like-minded food lovers.

After morning pickup from your Cable Beach hotel, you’ll be taken to a private beachside home in Nassau. Meet your expert chef and begin your Bahamian cooking class at an outdoor kitchen in this beautiful and private beachside setting.

Bahamian cuisine, among the most savory in the world, uses a variety of spices to flavor salads and specialty seafood dishes like conch chowder – just one of several delectable recipes you may learn to make during your 3-hour cooking class. Your instructor will completely immerse your small group in this hands-on, interactive lesson, suitable for both novice and experienced cooks.

Catch the rich aroma of authentic island cuisine like Junkanoo chicken with coconut rice and grilled fish in banana leaves as you learn how to cook a traditional Bahamian meal. Your instructor provides guidance on every step as you learn about the culinary traditions of this local fare. You’ll even mix a tasty tropical drink like Bahamian sky juice, consisting of coconut water and gin (and sometimes condensed milk and spices).

At the end of your cooking session, sample the fruits of your labor over lunch – sipping your cocktail and sopping up your meal with sides like cassava bread – delicious! Afterward, you’ll be dropped off at your Cable Beach hotel.
