Our gastronomic experience in Mendoza was wonderful! I went with my children to the chef's house, who welcomed us with a lot of kindness and good humor, making us feel comfortable from the first moment. The dishes were delicious, prepared with great care and taste, and the harmony of the Mood made everything even more special. An experience that will stay in memory and that I recommend without hesitation!

We had a wonderful time cooking, hearing stories, eating and drinking wine with Gaston. It was an amazing experience and gave us an opportunity to see how a typical Argentine native cooks and lives. We had wonderful discussions, and even though I'm a good cook, I learned so much. The food was amazing and had a beautiful presentation. You would not get this in a restaurant, which was part of the wonderful experience. Highly recommend this activity.

Our experience with Gaston was great! Before coming he asked what our food preferences were and was very helpful with providing local tips and suggestions. He’s very warm and friendly. We had conversation about food, culture, his family, and the city of Mendoza! We would recommend this a hundred times!
I had the pleasure of attending the Private Argentinian Cooking and Wine Pairing with Chef Gastón on my honeymoon. It was absolutely fantastic! From the second we arrived, Gastón was incredibly warm, welcoming, and passionate about sharing his culinary expertise with us. The cooking class was informative, fun, and hands-on, and the dishes we prepared were nothing short of spectacular. The attention to detail in both the cooking and wine selection made the experience truly amazing, and to emphasize again the food was absolutely incredible. Gastón’s hospitality and knowledge of Argentinian cuisine added to the greatness of the experience. It was the perfect mix of learning, enjoying incredible food, and sipping on amazing local wines. I highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Mendoza— It’s a must-do! Thank you, Gastón, for such an amazing experience

I am so happy and satisfied booking dinner with Dustin. He is so knowledgeable about Mendoza and food. I learned so much that I will use at home. The conversation, food, and wine were superb. Location was walking distance from us, very safe, utterly worth it!
