We had an amazing time at Marcelo Batata Cooking Classes! The food was fantastic, and the whole experience was so much fun. Fernando, our chef, was informative, entertaining, and made the class enjoyable from start to finish. He even described himself as a “sexy chef” 😂 — and honestly, he delivered!
The Pisco tasting was awesome, too. Definitely try the passion fruit Pisco sour — it was our favourite!
If you’re visiting Cusco and want to experience Peruvian cuisine in a fun, hands-on way, this cooking class is a MUST. Great food, great drinks, and great laughs. Highly recommend! 🇵🇪🍹👨🍳
