Shop local, cook Peruvian! Join a small group tour to explore a Lima market, then cook classics like Ceviche or Lomo Saltado in a fun, hands-on class.
A Lima cooking class that starts at the market and ends at the table. A small group, from choosing the ingredients to cooking the dishes yourself.
Start the tour in Surquillo, where you’ll explore a local market with your chef and guide. Learn about native Peruvian ingredients and food traditions while choosing everything needed for your meal. Then head to a professional kitchen in Miraflores for a hands-on cooking session, no boring demos here! You’ll prepare one starter and one main dish from a selection of three delicious menus.
Option 1: Papa Rellena (stuffed fried potato) and Lomo Saltado (Peruvian beef stir-fry with fries and rice).
Option 2: Ceviche (fresh fish marinated in citrus and chili) and Pescado a la Chorrillana (fried fish with tomato-onion sauce).
Option 3: Causa Rellena (layered mashed potato with veggie-quinoa filling) and Ají de Gallina (creamy chicken in yellow chili sauce).
The class concludes with a shared meal, snacks, and a fruit tasting. Vegetarian-friendly and adaptable to dietary restrictions—just let us know in advance.
