Great Job, Brad. I enjoyed the tour through you lens. Thank you very much for sharing with us.
Awesome way to taste the foods of the island and to see how they live. I loved the flowers!!
Took the tour today 3/22/12. It was wonderful!!! The food was amazing served in generous portions, and the Chef and her entourage/friends were delightful!! Could not have been more welcoming or hospitable!!! Be sure and have Chef Ann tell you stories of her very active 90 yr plus mother. You must hear the stories of Chef Ann’s experiences during her time as chef with the Kennedy family in both Virginia and Hyannisport. Jacqueline was already Mrs Onassis, but her kindness and grace could notebook compare to other family members. 5i
