An unforgettable culinary experience. - I would recommend this cooking class to anyone interested in learning new techniques and improving their cooking skills. The chef/instructor is passionate and knowledgeable, and his teaching style is as fun as it is educational. The recipes taught are varied and delicious, and the organization of the class is impeccable. Additionally, students are encouraged to actively participate, creating an interactive and collaborative learning environment. Personally, I have had amazing results in my dishes after taking this class. It's definitely worth doing.

Ernesto is the Besto! - Highly recommend to tourists and others! Ernesto gave us a Masterclass in Peruvian fruits and vegtables during the food market tour and a great experience preparing all the dishes back at the casita. Friendly, happy, interesting, knowledgeable. Group of 8 friends and we had a great time and were stuffed by the end!

An amazing experience in Peruvian food, culture and cuisine. - Ernesto Alcázar Gonzales was an amazing guide through the Cusco market and we learned so much about the food, people and the culture and traditions. We made delicious ceviches and Peruvian potato soup, potato cakes and stuffed peppers as well as an amazing desert. He was patient and kind and the pisco sours were amazing. We would love to take another class with him again next time we are in Peru. We have recreated the. ceviche in Austin, Texas and loved the result.
