Sting!!!! Robbery! Less than 24 hours before the event, they sent me a message saying it wouldn't happen anymore. There wasn't time to cancel through the app. I requested the cancellation and they said there would be, but they offered something very different from what I bought. I charged the cancellation and they disappeared.
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!
Simply top. Nice relaxation in the evening!
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!
Fun and interesting experience to try absolutely if you happen to be in Arequipa
The cooking class was a very pleasant experience in a beautiful setting and with a small group. We learned to make ceviche and a fish dish. Everything was well prepared and super organized. Very friendly guidance. A recommendation - definitely do it. Then you will receive the photos + recipes. Top!♡
As part of our trip, we participated in this Peruvian cooking class with Diana. A moment of connection, discovery, and international sharing with Spanish participants. I recommend it 200%
Fantastic Experience with Jessy a very good teacher.
Great cooking class in a beautiful setting in Arequipa. The instructor spoke Spanish and English and was patient and helpful. The rocoto relleno and salterito salad we made was very nice. I would highly recommend this class.
It was a very fun experience. It was very hands on. We got to do all the chopping and cooking over a fire.
