You local host Jorge will welcome you with a warm smile and some lovely music playing in the background - Jorge has a collection of more than 1000 vinilos! The passionate cook can also make a wide variety of traditional Chilean dishes with a modern touch.

What to expect

Meet Jorge and Mariela, whose love story began at a concert where Jorge was performing. Jorge is a professional musician who is well known in Chile, and music is an important part of the experience — you may even hear songs from his collection of more than 1000 vinyl records. Jorge learned to cook from his grandmother, who prepared meals for the whole family, inspiring his passion for traditional Chilean cuisine. Mariela, a tour guide who speaks Spanish, English, and Portuguese, brings her global perspective and warmth to the experience.

You’ll meet Jorge at his home and enjoy a cooking demonstration! Learn to prepare 1–2 traditional Chilean dishes before sharing an authentic, fresh, home-cooked meal together, accompanied by stories, food, and music.
