Highly recommended!

I had really wanted to take this tour, while my partner wasn’t so sure at first. Even so, he decided to come along, and we’re both so glad he did! It completely exceeded his expectations, as well as mine. Dael, our chef, was an amazing guide at San Pedro Market, sharing so much knowledge and making the visit fun and engaging. The cooking class itself was also fantastic, and he made the whole experience enjoyable from start to finish. We truly loved every moment of it and would absolutely do it again the next time we visit Cusco. Highly recommended!

Spectacular

Wonderful experience! It has been very enriching and has exceeded my expectations. Very good quality of the products and the place is very beautiful in addition to being all impeccable. But, without a doubt, my recognition goes to Chef Dael who not only demonstrates his great level of cooking but is also kind and very generous at all times. 100% recommendable. Thank you very much, Dael.

Amazing vegan cooking class with Dael

After Dael picked me up from my hotel, we headed to the local market to buy all the fresh ingredients we needed for the menu from his trusted regular vendors. His calm and friendly personality immediately put me at ease, and any nervousness I had disappeared right away. Once we arrived at the studio, every single step was explained in detail before we got started. We prepared a Passion Fruit Pisco Sour, three different kinds of mango ceviche (omg, there were sooooo delicious), a creamy soup, a delicious gratin, and a phenomenal dessert. I had an amazing time and learned so much throughout the experience. I can't wait to recreate all of these wonderful dishes at home! I’m so glad that I’ve booked that cooking class with Dael…!

100% recommend!!

We had a 4-student class with Dael. Started at San Pedro market (facing Santa Clara, between Cascaparo and Ca. Thupaq Amaru), where we went into the market and Dael educated us on the market and local groceries. Sampled a couple of things. Then a bit of a trek to the studio and the class began. It was very well paced and geared for all-comers. We were both doing some of the prepping as well as getting to sit down with food we made and plated to enjoy. Great experience 10/10 would do again and recommend!

Good food, good company

Chef Dael did a great job teaching us about the different produce in San Pedro Market and then showed us how to create amazing dishes using these items. A great way to spend time in Cusco.
