What to expect

Turn your family vacation into a delicious memory with this hands-on Peruvian cooking class in the heart of Lima.

Over the course of 4 fun-filled hours, you’ll step into the cozy kitchen of a local chef to prepare Peru’s most beloved dishes—together.

From the colorful layers of Causa Limeña to the zesty freshness of Classic Ceviche and the creamy comfort of Ají de Gallina, every recipe is taught in an engaging, step-by-step way that welcomes both kids and adults.

Little chefs can help with mixing, mashing, and plating while parents learn authentic techniques and cultural stories behind each bite.

The experience wraps up with a mocktail version of the iconic Pisco Sour for the young ones, and the real thing for grown-ups—shaken to perfection in a fun, interactive cocktail workshop.

More than a meal, this is a chance for families to bond, laugh, and create something unforgettable, together.

And if it’s not a 5-star experience for your family, we’ll refund you. No questions asked.
This experience happens in the safety of our chef's home and not in a culinary studio. You'll get a glimpse into how locals live, cook and eat.
