Lomo saltado - Did Jesus’s Lomo saltado class and it was perfect. The instructions and conversations were great. We did an evening class and had plenty of food, we also have the recipe now and can make this back home! Thanks again 10/10

Lots of enthusiasm and away good food! - A very nice course with an enthusiastic man who told us a lot about not only the dishes we made but the whole Peruvian cuisine. Highly recommended on your first day in Cusco/Peru, you immediately know where to go and what you should and should not eat! And of course also be able to make the local dishes incl. a pisco!

Lomo saltado short class 👌🏼👌🏼 - Excellent experience and great environment. Good option if you don’t have much time for a longer class, plus you’ll have a delicious dinner. I went as a solo women traveler and felt comfortable during the class with chef Jesus and his assistant.

The most fun I’ve had in a cooking class. - Everything about the class was wonderful. Our chef Jesus was super friendly from the start and was very thorough with each step. He let us add up to 4 shots of pisco for the pisco sours and we had the macerated pisco shots. It was such a fun experience while also being super informative about the history of the dish.
