Great experience! - We loved all of it. We were a small group and Christina, our chef, did a great job of teaching us not only the cooking, but the origin of each dish. Two dishes (ceviche et lomo saltado), but very elaborate recipe, which were delicious. Even included flames! Great experience.

Perfect Anniversary and Couples Date Experience - Chef Alejandro was exceptional. My wife and I have taken several cooking classes in the past yet our experience with him was head and shoulders above the rest. His knowledge of Peruvian history and how it has influenced the cuisine of the region was mesmorizing and the perfect pairing for the delicious meal he taught us to prepare. On a trip where where explored parts of Lima, Puerto Maldonado, the Sacred Valley, Machu Picchu, and the Rainbow Mountains, our class with Alejandro might have been the highlight of the entire thing. Thanks for helping to make our anniversary trip so memorable and special!

Trip highlight - We did this cooking class while we were in Peru and it was one of our absolute highlights. Jose was such a wonderful host who taught us how to cook traditional Peruvian dishes. He was funny, informative and made the class extremely enjoyable. The dishes we cooked were so delicious and they were easy enough to replicate back at home.
