Excellent chef/instructor Alex provided us with insight about local Brazilian dishes. Very hands on.
This was my favorite activity I did in Rio! Chef Simone was an excellent chef, teacher, and great company. I learned a lot about Brazilian Cuisine and know with now to make several dishes back home. 10/10 do not miss!
Hello! Thank you for your enthusiastic feedback! We're happy to hear that your culinary experience in Rio was a memorable one! Learning about Brazilian cuisine and acquiring the necessary skills to recreate the dishes at home is certainly one of the authentic and cool experiences we have in our city! We thank you for your recommendation and hope to see you again for more culinary adventures! Best regards!
Chef Simone Almeida was incredible. We had a wonderful evening making delicious dishes. Transportation arranged by the tour was horrible. Chef Simone made sure we were transported back to our hotel in safety and comfort, two things missing from our hotel pick up.
Hello! I'm so glad you enjoyed your lesson! Exploring and getting to know our cuisine is one of the coolest and most representative ways to get to know Rio, which is super abundant and democratic in this sense. Oh, and very tasty too, of course! Thank you for your review and for choosing Rio Carioca Tours!
This is such a special and unique experience! Chef Simone is so gracious and knowledgeable about her country’s food as well as others. We made Moqueca and it was delicious. I will be making this at home, often. Highly recommend this class!!!
We could have not asked or wanted for a better experience than we had with Chef Simone and the other attendees. What a great mix, with lots of laughs, and explanations of Brazilian cultures. It so happened that the other two attendees were from varied parts of Brazil and the combination of Chef and their take on the cultures worked well with directing us on local “must sees” while in Rio. I highly recommend this experience. And the meal we cooked together was delicious!
Hello Allan, Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We are delighted with your review. We're working to offer always a good service and the best experience for our clients.
This was an experience that I will not forget. We were let into the life of a local brazilian and shown the local drink and food. The group interacted with host and had a fantastic time. I would say if you have time it is a must as it is a so genuine experience which travellers do not normally experience.
Hello! Thank you very much for your comment. It is very important for us to know what our customers experienced in our service and with our staff. We are happy to hear that it was a good time and that you enjoyed! We hope you will come back soon for more special moments.
I was a little hesitant booking this course as there were no reviews but I'm so pleased I did! It's a new business which will definitely be successful! My partner and I had a great evening and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area. We had to change our location pickup/drop off on the day and they were very accommodating with this. There were 4 people in total so a nice small, personal experience. The chef (sorry I can't remember her name) was amazing and really made this course 5*. Her knowledge and experience was second to none. She took us on a culinary journey explaining the history of the Brazilian dishes and drinks. I don't do much cooking at home but I left this evening confident and excited to cook the same dishes at home for my friends 😀
