    I highly recommend visiting Christmas Shop On the River if you are in the Fernandina Beach area…read more This is a great find for anyone who loves Christmas. We were shopping on Center street and this store caught our interest. The store offers a variety of ornaments ranging from $15 and up. I love Christmas, but I am not a huge buyer of ornaments, however, I do appreciate the effort and detail that goes into creating such items. My wife is a Halloween die-hard; so the Jack the Pumpkin King and Sally ornaments were a cool find, but at $80 each they were out of our price range. In our conversations with the owner, we learned that the building was once a bank. I took a sweet photo of the vault door; it reminded me of Steam Punk. The owner was really friendly and let us take photos of the store which we appreciate. The store was clean, organized, and provided some beautiful displays and ornaments for purchase. I would definitely stop back again on a future trip.

    I am so torn with this review- I have been several times over the years and I get excited to go…read moreinto the Christmas Shop to look for unique items and usually leave empty handed, but with ideas to look for better prices for the same thing. I don't know if I am too frugal (aka cheap) or what- but I saw items that were the same things carried by another store for more than 1/2 the price. I found these amazing Santas earlier in the day and this shop had some of the different ones but for a crazy amount more. I found a Christmas ornament I would have bought in a heartbeat- except it was $30. It made me take a step back- literally. I love shopping small businesses. But I have also learned by mistake to research if I think for a minute that it's over priced. I'm not talking dollars, double the price and then some is just too much. This store has been here a while- so I know that they have plenty of people who do shop with them- it's just not me. While I enjoy visiting, the prices make it just ok. I hope you find something you simply must have!

    Insider secret bring your own wine. Most fun you can have…read morewith your clothes on. Been to this place 4 times now, unfortunately moved to Tennessee so too hard to get there now. Experienced going to the morning market to pick out fresh ingredients for hour meal. This class was more of a demonstration class than actual cooking and you are served by a professional chef what could be better. Also he is a comedian that perhaps should be playing a part at a comedy club. In closing I hope I can get back there someday, absolutely wonderful experience.

    Trying to find a cooking class in the area was challenging. I was looking for a hands on class but…read morefor the weekend that I wanted, nothing was available. I settled on a demonstration class with Chef Thompson. The menu for that Saturday night was "Low Country Cuisine", which included a roasted butternut squash salad with goat cheese, smoked bacon, and pickled red onions; Mayport shrimp and Carolina clam perlou; and a winter citrus "french toast" with pear coulis and limoncello whipped cream. Given that my friend is allergic to seafood, I asked about a beef or chicken option substitute and the chef was very accommodating! He added skirt steak to the menu. When we arrived around 5:30 pm for the Saturday class, a group of three was already there. The chef offered wine and water as we settled into the counter-height directors chairs to watch him prepare a delicious meal. Chef Bill is a natural teacher. He seamlessly cooked, talked about the food and the inspiration behind some of the dishes, and interacted with us. The smells, the tastes, and the whiffs of food were incredible! He definitely knows what he's doing! About 2 hours later, we were ready to eat. Chef Thompson set up a buffet for us and we were encouraged to fill our plates and to get seconds. There was more than enough food. This was definitely a five star experience but my OCD with germs drops it down to four stars. I'd have just liked to see a little more hand washing as he was touching his face and other items around the kitchen as he was cooking. But, that was a minor issue and one that I'm sure only I noticed. If you're looking for a little something different for a dinner date or for an activity with friends, check out this culinary institute. You'll be in for a delicious meal that night and with the recipes and tips that you'll get, you can recreate the meal at home too.
