Moqueca Cooking class with Drinks in Belo Horizonte

3 hours (approximately)
Offered in: Portuguese and 1 more

From the moment you grab your first caipirinha, you’ll feel the rhythm of Brazil in the kitchen.

This isn’t a studio class, it’s a lively gathering inside a real Belo Horizonte home, where cooking turns into celebration.

Guided by a local chef, you’ll explore 7 iconic recipes that blend Afro-Brazilian traditions, family flavors, and festive spirit. Taste, stir, and laugh your way through dishes like creamy moqueca, cheesy pão de queijo, and crunchy banana farofa, each carrying its own story.

Here, strangers become friends as you toast together, swap stories, and savor every bite.

Groups stay small so the experience feels intimate, interactive, and personal.
