Every country has a story, and in Panama, the best way to hear it is to taste it.
Over one relaxed evening in a local's home (no walking, no tourist restaurant), you'll sample 32 of Central America's best flavors:
Empanadas and crispy plantain chips, tropical fruits most visitors never meet, marinated meats and cheeses, fresh mojitos and rum cocktails, and bold Central American coffee to finish.
Your local host shares the origin, history and meaning behind every bite, so you don't just eat, you learn a whole cuisine without cooking a thing.
Small tasting portions mean you get through all 32 without filling up.
As one guest put it, it was "a highlight of our entire trip"; another "left with three new friends."
Vegetarian and non-alcoholic options always available.
Come hungry for the food, and for the stories.

Meeting and pickup
We're in a safe, central neighbourhood — once you book, our booking manager will send the exact address, a map pin and a dietary check by WhatsApp. Transport is on you; it's an easy rideshare.
What to expect
And join your host for an evening through 32 traditional flavors — empanadas, plantain chips, tropical fruits, marinated meats, rum cocktails and handmade desserts.
You'll hear the story behind each bite while sipping mojitos, discovering how every ingredient connects to Panama's mix of cultures. No walking required, just sit back, taste, laugh and compare favorites.
Portions are curated so you taste the whole country without feeling too full.
Perfect for couples, friends, families or solo travelers after a fun, cultural evening. Guests call it "a highlight of our entire trip," and many "leave with new friends."
Vegetarian and non-alcoholic options always available.
And if it's not a five-star night, you won't pay for a four-star one — simple as that.
We ask one thing: come hungry for stories. Long after the last bite, you'll still carry the flavors, laughter and memories of Panama with you.
