Recommendation!
The cooking class was very fun! We learned to make a starter and a main course that we could then eat deliciously! Our cook Jessie was super nice and explained it well to us. Recommendation!

Unforgettable cooking experience in Arequipa
Diana guided us wonderfully and explained a lot to us about Peruvian cuisine and the ingredients. It was very informative, entertaining, and fun, and it tasted delicious. We also really liked the beautiful outdoor kitchen on the covered terrace with a view of the garden. We can absolutely recommend this cooking experience!

Topklasse Peruviaanse kook Workshop!
De cooking class was een heel fijne ervaring in een prachtige setting en met een kleine groep. We leerden de ceviche maken en een visgerecht. Alles was goed voorbereid en super georganiseerd. Heel vriendelijke begeleiding. Een aanrader - zeker doen. Nadien krijg je de foto's + recepten doorgestuurd. Top!♡
