"...The instructor made it feel like we were cooking with a friend, not taking a class. The fire, the Pisco Sour, the way he explained every ingredient — it all added up to something that felt genuinely Peruvian rather than put together for tourists. We cooked well, ate well, and left with recipes we're actually going to use."

Easily the most memorable thing we did in Cusco. Real food, real fire, real host....
