5.00Mo was very knowledgeable and is an excellent teacher. We enjoyed spending the day with her! I appreciate the efficiency and support during the cooking process! I can't wait to try the recipes back home. Oh and crab fishing was definitely a highlight!
A fantastic fun filled afternoon. Surpassed expectations! Seriously, go do it!

5.00Where to begin. It was a fantastic afternoon spent. Picked up and dropped off at the hotel which was very convenient. Mr Cú was such a funny and entertaining host. We started off at the market, being shown all local ingredients and got to taste a few things along the way. It was wonderful! Then we went on to the Basket Boat trip (after an unexpected serving of delicious tea and a coconut snack). The fisherman who steered then little circular boats were so cheerful and endearing. You couldn't help but admire their efforts and enthusiasm for their jobs. We had a great 'driver' on the boat who spun us round and made us laugh so much. Then on to the cooking class section of the trip. The place was set up properly and organised so well. We were split into groups with a leader each. Mr Cú's wife and cousin were leading the other groups. They were all super friendly and helpful. You get to chop, slice, prepare and cook several dishes. The whole activity was super fun, insightful and entertaining. Everything was so delicious and at the end you all get to sit down for dinner and savour all your hard work. Yum! We loved Mr Cús humour, his passion and his ethos of also helping contribute to towards the community with disabilities by employing staff members with communication difficulties on the back of his personal journey of bringing up his eldest son who has cerebral palsy. You can feel the heart and passion from the entire family working together to provide this wonderful experience and service. It was very moving. We enjoyed our day immensely and I can't recommend this highly enough. I personally want to thank Mr Cú (sorry if i am not using the correct lettering) personally for being such a brilliant host and beautiful spirit. It was so much more enjoyable and fun and memorable than I could've imagined it to be. Loved it!
