Fun experience with great hosts! - It was a very fun afternoon of cooking and socializing with Mari and Marisa. We made ceviche, stuffed potatoes, desserts and pisco sours and learned alot about living in Arequipa. They were very welcoming and interesting hosts!

Peruvian 'Nonna' experience - We did this as a couple, and absolutely loved the experience. Marisa was patient, and supportive while we fumbled her family secrets, but the end result was a perfect meal with some amazing flavours that i can't wait to bring back to Aus with us. We thoroughly had the best experience doing this.

Homely and cozy traditional cooking course. - I would recommend this course to anyone who loves cooking, enjoys good food and enjoys socializing in a homely and hospitable environment. During the course you prepare three courses and a cocktail. We were completely full at the end! Thank you very much, ladies!

Delicious & hearty - We had a lot of fun at the cooking class with Marisa and Mary (mother and daughter)! My sister and I were the only cooking students. While we prepared the three courses, we had a good conversation and even learned a lot about Peruvian (food) culture. We particularly liked that the atmosphere was very open and friendly and that we had enough time to prepare the dishes. It was also super delicious! If I could, I would cook with Marisa every week! By the way: the two of them also rent out their apartments via Airbnb!

Great experience with repeat potential - Once again I was the only participant, which was both a shame and great. I was able to prepare and then consume the three courses together with Marisa and her daughter as translator. I found it a very exciting and educational experience, which I can highly recommend.
