Cook Haitian dishes with Chef Marie Michele

What truly sets this experience unique is its combination of hands-on cooking, authentic cultural storytelling, and immersive dining in one intimate experience. Rather than simply watching a demonstration, guests actively prepare two beloved Haitian favorites, Akra (Malanga Fritters) and Diri Kole (Haitian Rice & Beans), while learning the ingredients, techniques, and traditions that make these dishes an important part of Haitian cuisine. The experience is further enriched with a welcome Ginger Citronade tasting, a traditional Haitian dinner, a glass of wine, lively Haitian music, and engaging cultural conversations that provide deeper insight into Haiti's rich heritage. As a lasting keepsake, each guest receives an autographed copy of PRESERV, featuring a collection of Haitian recipes, allowing them to continue their culinary journey long after the experience ends.
