birdnestudios in vieques, isla nena
a bit of paradise within.....secluded.....tranquil.....private....ah! and what a view...
Your Personal Cuisine...enjoy a romantic dinner for two, dinner at your villa or at the beach, cooked fresh just for you....the perfect solution for weddings, rehearsal dinners as well as  family and friends gatherings-¡buen apetito! Puertorrican seasoning like my mother use to do. Try us, you will join others who have said "the  best dinner this vacation"...

 Let me pamper you with my exquisite Caribbean cuisine at home or at the beach. Formerly a banker and business consultant, I found cooking for friends    to be relaxing and gratifying. At 60, I decided to drop out of the rat race. So we downsized, cleaned out most of our debts and defied Fortune’s magazine articles on how to retire rich. Living in Vieques was the reward. Cooking for others is a big responsibility but the  other rewards like making new friends, telling stories and living in a place without stop lights, only one elevator  that goes up one floor and wearing  casual clothing at all times,  I believe,  it is as they say…….¡priceless! Spectacular cooking show in front of you…amazing how the rice grows into a delicious dish…always certain to go back for more…Soooo! If you want real puertorican seasoning and flavor then, let me cook for you...

Planning to get married? !Congratulations! Then break away from the traditional buffet or sit down dinners; have a feast with a delicious paella; sea food or meats or best, do them both. It's fun, its tropical.

Get together with friends and family or plan a romantic dinner just for two or how about a beach party with free use of my kajacks...check out the menu. Visit my guest book for former customer comentaries, write to me for special requests...but if in Vieques, you must indulge yourself. Hasta pronto! ¡buen provecho!        When in the Caribbean, have a Caribbean person cook for you...we have the taste buds.
