The Black Urchin The Black Urchin is passionate about what we do, that is elevated island cuisine and great service. I have a tremendous passion for vibrant and exotic cooking.

I am Barrie Gunning founder of Bad Guys, marketeer and entrepreneur. I took that passion and years of experience in the industry abroad to start a journey that will culminate something right at home which bajans and visitors to the island would greatly appreciate and want to come back for more. My goal is to capture the upper essence of the real island lifestyle, it's beauty, the smile of it's people, the exotic flavours it offers and be able to pass that to others on a plate or a simple but mesmerising drink. Coming soon, you can look out for pop up restaurant events and food services.

PRIVATE CHEF DINING & A FULL-DAY CULINARY EXPERIENCE IN BARBADOS

Make food a memorable part of your winter holiday with The Black Urchin Barbados.

PRIVATE CHEF SERVICES

A FULL-DAY BARBADIAN CULINARY EXPERIENCE
Discover Barbados through its markets, flavours and cooking traditions, guided by Chef Barrie Gunning.

Your day begins with collection from your accommodation and a visit to Bridgetown’s local produce and nearby fish markets. Explore fresh fruits, vegetables, herbs, meats and seafood, learn about their flavours and uses in Barbadian cooking, and select ingredients for your evening meal.

We’ll then stop at a local spot off the beaten track to sample a Barbadian delicacy and enjoy a refreshing drink.

Spend a few afternoon hours relaxing at your accommodation or enjoying a beach swim before we gather again for a hands-on cooking class, followed by dinner featuring the ingredients we selected together.

To discuss your experience and secure your dates, send us your preferred dates, guest count and where you’ll be staying.
