Step into a warm local home in Rio and enjoy a fun, hands-on cooking afternoon with your family.This experience was designed for kids and adults to learn together as you prepare 9 traditional Brazilian recipes, guided by a friendly instructor who makes everyone feel welcome.
You’ll chop, mix, season, and taste at your own pace, with simple step-by-step guidance that keeps children engaged and adults relaxed.
Every dish tells a story, and your host shares the cultural meaning behind the ingredients Brazilians grow up eating. It’s a chance to see daily life inside a real Brazilian home and cook side by side with someone who loves sharing their culture.
Beyond the recipes, the memories you and your children will take from this experience are truly unforgettable.
Choose your main dish: picanha steak, fish moqueca, or vegetarian moqueca - all easy to adapt for younger tastes.
And you’ll finish by sitting down together to enjoy the full meal you created - a moment kids love because “they cooked it themselves.”
And if your family’s experience isn’t 5 stars, we’ll refund you.
