Rather than focusing on São Paulo's famous meat churrasco, this class introduces the country's coastal barbecue traditions through fresh local seafood. Hosted in a welcoming local Paulistano home, you'll prepare authentic Brazilian recipes alongside a local instructor while learning practical grilling techniques that can easily be recreated at home. The experience combines hands-on cooking, cultural storytelling, unlimited caipirinhas for adults, and a shared meal in a relaxed social setting.
