Best cookery experience on the island
Erik gave us a warm welcome into their absolutely beautiful home/business.
The class started with a little bit of history and facts that I absolutely loved. Then we moved down into a wonderful well equipped cook station near the original fire out in the garden.
Ave then served some authentic tapas with even more interesting facts from Erik while we enjoyed a refreshment (wine, homemade lemonade, beer or water)
