Chef Kele will teach delicious, authentic Trinidadian dishes followed by a sit-down meal.

ABOUT THE CUISINE

Trinidad and Tobago’s cuisine is a vibrant reflection of its diverse cultural roots - blending African, Indian, Chinese, and Creole influences into a colourful mix of flavours, spices, and textures. From the flaky Buss Up Shut Roti to the bold and comforting Trini Chicken curry, every dish tells a story of community, celebration, and togetherness. Trini food is all about sharing - rich, flavourful dishes made to bring people together!

ABOUT THE CHEF

A message from chef Kele:

“My name is Kele and I am from Trinidad and Tobago.

I was raised in an extended family - I lived with my grandparents, parents, my three brothers and lots of cousins. Food acted as the glue that kept us together.

Most of my cooking skills I learned and inherited from my Granny - I was asked to read out recipes from Good Housekeeping magazines - she would choose the ones she thought sounded the most delicious and we’d cook them together, usually for special occasions like Christmas and birthdays. This ignited my passion for teaching and cooking - allowing me to own a catering business and become a qualified teacher. A deep appreciation for food was developed because I understood the role it played in relationships and families, eventually extending to my own.

I arrived in Bristol some years ago, and have shared my Trinidad culture through numerous cookery classes. I can’t wait to share it with you!”

THE CLASS FORMAT

Our cookery classes are family-style – everyone works together to prepare the dishes as a team.

While you’ll choose one dish to focus on, you’ll also have the opportunity to move around the kitchen, help with other dishes, and learn from each recipe. It’s a fun, social, and collaborative cookery class where you’ll gain hands-on experience, new skills, and an authentic taste of Trinidadian culture.

At the end of the class, you’ll sit down with chef Kele, your classmates, and our team to enjoy the meal you’ve created together.
