Lovely local experience - Such a beautiful wholesome experience, lovely local couple. Food tailored to our diet restrictions and the option of wine ! 🍷

Amazing workshop! - Really special workshop. I went with my girlfriend and we were welcomed by a great host at her house. She explained everything at our own pace and was verry friendly. We also talked about lots of things. We learned a lot! Thanks for the amazing workshop!

Excellency of our friends - Excellent class, very attentive and hospitable, the really excellent food of Buenos Aires, I highly advise everyone to experience the class and the hospitality of our Argentine neighbors, I am very grateful to each of you.

Excellent! Cooking with friends - Excellent! Cozy environment, beats nice chat, mate, empanada and alfajor. Practical and informal lesson - very easy to learn and most importantly - to enjoy everything afterwards with friends. I highly recommend!

Perfect half day experience with my adult son! - Wonderful experience and highly recommend! We look forward to bringing our newly learned skills of making empanadas and alfajores back home with us! We walked to the San Telmo Market afterwards to round out our first day of activities in Buenos Aires.

Very enjoyable learning experience! - Adorable Argentine kitchen with warm and friendly atmosphere. We loved cooking with them and our food was delicious!

To do ! 😁 - Superb local experience in Buenos Aires to discover some of the gastronomy, through the confession of empanadas and alfajores! Very friendly moment, since we are invited to the family's living space :) I recommend +++

Meh; Acceptable for the Price - Decent experience for the price. The place was very hard to find. I plugged the address listed on Viator on Google Maps and got the wrong location, which was confusing. I eventually found the place about 20 min. late and the experience was...fine. The lady hosting it was not the most nice, but also not super rude either. Some parts of the experience felt a bit strange for a paid experience. For example, we finished about 1 hour early and she was nudging me toward the door saying things like "Is your Uber here yet?". All in all, it's okay. If you have an evening to spare and like cooking, go ahead and sign up.

Cooking class without cooking - We booked a cooking course here and were really looking forward to it. When we arrived, we really liked the apartment and the cozy atmosphere. Unfortunately, we were confused right from the start (due to a lack of introduction/greeting) as to who was leading the course and who was just a participant. Right at the start, everyone was given a different vegetable, but without any explanation as to how and why we were cutting it. That was actually the biggest part of the “cooking” - the empanadas were actually prepared by the three ladies in the kitchen, while the eight of us were supposed to prepare the dough, so we could only carry out a small step every 10 minutes. The few things that we were allowed to do ourselves and for which we might have needed explanation (e.g. how to close the empanadas properly/“repulgues”) were unfortunately poorly explained, not explained at all, or only explained to half of the course. The table conversations were also initiated exclusively by us participants, so unfortunately we didn't learn anything about Buenos Aires and Argentinian culture that evening. Here we also realized that the course was not grouped according to the languages booked, because Spanish was generally spoken, even though we had booked the course in English. The empanadas were baked one after the other, and here too the opportunity to create a cozy atmosphere was missed - the instructors remained in the kitchen while we ate our "homemade", very tasty empanadas, without being sure whether that was the next item on the program. To get the recipes for the course, you should write to the tourism team on Instagram, but then you only get information about the ingredients and only sparse instructions if you ask. In our opinion, the price is not appropriate for not taking home any new cultural knowledge, food or useful recipes and only being offered tap water or overpriced wine during the course. When we read the other reviews, we wonder if we just had a bad day - the course actually had a lot of potential, the apartment was very nice and the instructors were very nice too. Unfortunately, it really wasn't a cooking course with cultural exchange, as expected.

LATAM business class to South America, a sham! - LATAM business class Los Angeles to Sao Paolo, Brasil- Buenos Aires, Argentina review My spouse and I travelled, to Brazil and Argentina early this month business class on LATAM. We flew on LATAM flight: 535 LAX-LIM 8/2/24 and flight 8040 LIM-GRU on 8/3/24. Those flights were from LAX to GRU, via LIM and from GRU to Buenos Aires, on August 10 and finally from Buenos Aires to LAX on August 18-19, again via LIM, paying quite handsomely for it. The LAX LATAM lounge was quite good, comfortable, ample menu, good bar. On the first flight, we got was a 787, with a comfortable bed inside a spacious pod & great on board service, by a friendly and attentive crew. Then we got to Lima, were made to go through security, and were eligible to use the Samar lounge, which was way below average as ViP lounges go. The food was average, not varied, not consistent with American standards, as far as breakfast foods go. Then came the big disappointment. The Lima to Sao Paolo flight, was called premium economy, but in reality, it is a coach cabin with a regular coach seat, same as all other coach seats, no wider, no extra leg room, no reclining capability beyond the standard 6 inches, ah yes they did leave the center seat open. On a 5 hour flight, it is corporal torture, for those expecting business class comfort. My wife’s back screamed at her throughout the whole flight. The service and food on board were deceptional. This was on a A320 aircraft! The flight was changed on me 2 times from going to the city airport AEP, to the international airport EZE & back to AEP, although the second time I wasn’t notified and I found out about it as I was doing the online checking 24 hours prior to departure. All those changes made me have to keep changing my airport transfer, the last time in a panic, as I hoped, it could be arranged. Saturday August 10, flight 8140 The flight from Sao Paolo to Buenos Aires was on the same aircraft type, an A320, equally as an uncomfortable, under served, a breakfast offering that was either an omelet, advertised as ham and cheese, but was only cheese, my choice, or a fruit cup, that consisted of 2 slices of melon, one of water melon and half a strawberry, my wife’s, except she’s allergic to melon, and couldn’t eat it! We saw the scabin staff eating fruit yogurt, which looked better than what was being served, so I asked for it, and was told that it was only for the crew’s consumption. The 3 hour flight was equally uncomfortable as the one from Lima. The nightmare continued on the return flight 2381, from AEP to Lima, where again we had an A320 aircraft, with the sham premium economy setup, 4 hours 45 minutes worth of it, this time. The service was good the menu consisted of either a roast beef sandwich or a feta cheese one, along with chips & dip & a choice of a fruit cup or a mousse cup; while Coach passengers were fed ham & cheese sandwiches. Again we only took the desert. This flight had a 5 hours, 5 minutes layover in Lima. Imagine my surprise at arriving at the Samar VIP lounge to be told that the airline arrangements only included a 3 hour stay! We were told to come back 35 minutes later, the earliest they would admit us! The nerve of the airline to do this! I couldn’t believe it. Tried to see if there was a customer service desk, but was told it didn’t exist. Invited my daughter & son in law to join us in th lounge, as they were on thee same flights with us. I paid $76 USD & found the lounge super crowded. A host inside located a table for 5 as no club chairs were open anywhere. As I had stated above, the choice of food was quite limited & when added to uncomfortable chairs, the stay there was anything but pleasant. Then came another surprise, prior to boarding the aircraft we were subjected to another carry on bags check, this time they stripped us of all sealed water bottles, juices and in my case of two containers of dulce de leche, claiming that the spread is considered a liquid. My outrage exploded! I couldn’t believe it. None of their cautions on what could be carried on board spelled it out. Besides the cost of it, being deprived of food that is a specialty of my country, while at the same time they allow full size bottles of tax and duty free alcoholic beverages on board, what an hypocrisy! This flight 2478, was aboard a 767 aircraft this time, which was also a disappointment, as it wasn’t as roomy nor as comfortable as the 787. The pods were smaller, cramped at the feet area, Unlike other airlines business class, LATAM’s headphones are NOT the noise canceling type, just one more disappointment. The menu was equally disappointing, I only chose the desert, while my wife had the raviolis, that she rated as edible, not great. Morning breakfast, another disappointment, the ham-less ham and cheese omelet barely edible, no croissants, the coffee, allegedly Juan Valdez, horrid tasting. The on board beverage selections didn’t include bourbon, Scotch only, the wine selection didn’t include Chardonnays, Sauvignon Blanc and Albarino. In closing I wrote to my business class discount consolidator, telling him, not to call me again! I promised myself not to fly LATAM again and I strongly urge all to heed my advise and not travel LATAM business class to South America, it’s a sham!
