Best cooking class in Cusco - One of the best experiences in our trip to Cusco. We had an incredible time at the market, learning about traditional foods and tasting delicious fruits. Ronald, the chef, was amazing. He explained everything with patience and the cooking class was great. The food we prepared was delicious as well. Book this experience. You won't regret it.

Wonderful Peruvian cooking class - We had a wonderful experience with Ronal. With most cooking classes you don’t get to go to the local market where the ingredients come from. This was a really wonderful addition to the class. The amount of preparation that we did was perfect. The two dishes and the pisco beverage, were so fun to prepare. The shop where Ronal had his business was well appointed and set up for the guests. Ronal was so engaging and informative about the dishes, adding interesting facts about their origin and the the Peruvian culture. Would definitely recommend!

Food and fun - This was a fantastic experience. I was lucky that I was the only person to have booked during that session so I got VIP treatment from Ronal. He took me first to the market and pointed out a range of Peruvian produce. At his cooking school I sampled a number of delicious fruits and cheeses before preparing a Pisco Sour, lomo saltado and a stuffed chilli. Ronal was fun, engaging and encouraging throughout the whole experience and is clearly a gifted chef who had great pride in both Cusco and the food of the area and nation. The resulting meal was delicious. I thoroughly recommend this experience.

Awesome cooking and culture experience - Ronald ran an excellent cooking class. He was really informative. Taking us through the market explaining all about Peruvian culture and buying fresh ingredients. Then back to his kitchen where he gave us options for what we wanted to cook among a range of Peruvian dishes. We tried a range of exotic Peruvian fruits, cooked 2 dishes each and also made Pisco sours. I have already recommended this to my friends and will continue to.

Simply fantastic! - This was simply fantastic! Ronald is such a good teacher, not only in the kitchen, but as he explained the various meats, fruits and vegetables when we were at the market. It was so wonderful to learn about the vast selection of foods available in Peru that I knew nothing of. Doing the meal prep with a culinary expert was a delight to me, an absolute amateur. When we were done preparing and cooking, we got to sit down and eat fabulous food at our own 5-star restaurant right in the classroom! I can’t say enough good about this class and Ronald. If you are in Cusco and have any interest in the cuisine, this is a must do. The price is perfect considering the education you get as well as the full meal.

Great way to experience the Cusco Market - Great time walking through the market with our guide/cook and then lots of fun in the cooking glass. We were also able to pick up a few items not related to the class at the market.
