People Love Annie B

So much more than cooking...Annie has a knack of making you feel as if you have known her for ages and the day was fun and informative. Eating the fruits of our labour up on the fabulous terrace with my fellow students was lovely and my daughter who was visiting me at the time was Continue Reading

Just one day at Annie B’s Spanish Kitchen makes you feel like you’re at a good friend’s kitchen.

From the first contact Annie was so friendly and helpful – and patient with all my questions as I tried to work out how to get to Vejer from Seville by public transport!

tui52 Auckland, NZ January 8, 2015

We enjoyed our cooking course with Annie B., it offerd much more than we could imagine. Helena

Helena Helsinki April 2015 June 12, 2015

Your course was a big help in bringing some great food back to our home dinner table as well as opening my eyes to more of the Sherry opportunities.

Mark & Dee Sydney, Australia July 8, 2016

Thanks for the great recipes, and sherry education - not something I would have ever drunk before coming to Vejer, yet now my poor house guests have had sherry, sherry cake and a lecture from me about the making of sherry! Lindsay

Lindsay Edinburgh August 26, 2016

If you love food, culture and a splash of wine with a passionate person who understands the special ingredients of Andalucia then you could not spend a better day in this beautiful hilltop village.

October 27, 2016

Annie B’s tour was a perfect blend of food and drink for our group of wine-obsessed Americans/American Sommeliers. Annie is passionate and hilarious, she planned an action packed few days for us focussing on Spanish wine and Sherry, which we wanted to explore, and also the gourmet delights of Cadiz that she is so knowledgeable Continue Reading

Virginia, Master Sommelier USA - May 2016 Group Food & Wine Tour December 15, 2016

Thank you once again, we truly had the most wonderful experience with you in Vejer. Our expectations were high coming to your classes and unbelievably were far surpassed! I am looking forward to trying your wonderful recipes at home.

Almadraba – What an Experience!

I have just returned from the most fabulous four days on Annie's Almadraba tour. What a wonderful experience! Beautifully organised and super friendly with many homely touches but a fierce professionalism in the background so that everything runs like clockwork. The cooking course was terrific, the tapas tours memorable, the sherry tasting interesting and educational Continue Reading

Julia Thum Bray, UK May 25, 2017

Everything we had hoped for…

The four day course fulfilled everything we had hoped for, and because of the relaxed and generous way it was delivered, we are agreed that you pleasantly exceeded our expectations.

John & Jane Devon, UK June 9, 2017

Great Fun for Foodies!

We spent a fabulous week with Anne exploring the food and drink of Andalusian Spain. We based ourselves in the beautiful hilltop town of Vejer de la Frontera, Anne's home. Cooking classes at her hilltop home, degustaciones of fresh tuna on the coast, Sherry tastings at bodegas, Arabic food luncheons, Tapa's tours and fabulous meals Continue Reading

Stephen Puerto Rico September 29, 2017

Fabulous food and such fun

Annie makes cooking and eating delicious food a course requirement. We explored the beautiful town of Vejer, tasted sherry in atmospheric bodegas and sampled fabulous tapas. It was all well organized and felt like an ongoing party instead of a course. If the opportunity to attend one of her classes presents itself jump at it!

Diane Berk NY, USA October 30, 2017

Bespoke Culinary Adventure was terrific

I love my friends and we all love food, so seven of us arranged 5 days with Annie (one came specially from the US). She is such a warm and easy person she was part of the gang at once and we followed her around like greedy ducklings while, with huge knowledge and authority, she Continue Reading

Thank you :)

Thank you for a wonderful day of cooking in your beautiful home! Great food, great sherry, great company! We loved Vejer!

Suzanne Leonardson Hall New Jersey, USA March 23, 2018

We had a fantastic day in Tangiers, arranged by Annie B

Our guide was Abdul, such an amazing man, and so knowledgeable. He seemed to be the "grandfather" of the guides. He also seemed to know all the right people in Tangier. I don't know if all the tours are like that, but we were impressed! I can´t believe how much we packed into the day. Continue Reading

When can we return?

Your passion and generosity from our first email exchange, truly was such a gift to our journey. You significantly helped 'sketch' our itinerary, a trip to be remembered. I still am suffering from Spanish fever and cannot wait to return. And Erizo, never again will a bite be taken without an immediate flashback to the Continue Reading

Day Trip to Tangiers

Thank you very much for organising our trip to Tangiers. All a great success and Aziz was charming and lunch was out of this world! We needed a bit more time in the souk, but can always go back another time!

Family Diamond June 2017 June 17, 2018

Just delicious!

Thank you for such a lovely experience. Both my mother and I had a great time. Your kitchen and home is warm and inviting, and your rooftop terrace devine! All of the food was delicious, and we can't wait to try and reproduce some of the recipes.
