Interesting and fun experience - Liz took us to the market and we were able to learn about some of the typical Colombian products. The experience was fun, we cooked with her and we were able to choose together what to cook. Liz is a great host and made us feel at home. I recommend this experience to everyone.

Amazing time - Absolutely amazing experience! Liz was so friendly and knowledgeable. She let us pick the menu and then took us to the market to get all fresh ingredients at the best price. We were able to participate in everything with Liz’s encouragement. Can not say enough about how much Liz was a superstar chef while answering all our questions. Highly recommend!!

Highly Personalized Experience - Liz opens her home to connect people to the culture and love of Colombian food. The tour starts with you picking three Colombian dishes to make and shopping for the ingredients at the local market (of which you are responsible for paying for). The food I bought at the market cost about $8 USD which could have easily fed two or three people! Liz has a way of making the ingredients go very far. Her home and kitchen were very welcoming. She was very detailed in showing techniques and answered all my questions of the food and culture of Colombia. She was easy to communicate with in both Spanish and English. This private and highly personalize experience is worth the time to introduce you to a deeper understanding of Colombian culture.

Amazing Colombian Cooking Experience! - We had such an amazing time cooking with Liz in her kitchen! It was a lot of fun to go through the market with her, she taught us a lot about different Colombian fruits and veggies we had never seen before. The whole cooking experience was enjoyable from start to finish, and the food tasted incredible 🙌🏼 She catered well for my friend who is vegetarian. We made ajiaco, mango ceviche with arepas and platanos bocadillo for desert 😋 Highly recommend for an authentic Colombian cooking experience!

Unbeatable cooking class in Bogotá - This cooking class was an amazing experience. Liz is an incredibly friendly, thoughtful and enthusiastic guide. Starting the class with a tour of a local food market to buy ingredients was great, as we were able to ask questions about local foods and pick ingredients we wanted to include. The food we prepared with Liz was delicious and her guidance through the cooking was great. For a really enjoyable and authentic experience of Colombian cuisine, I would highly recommend!

Excellent experience! - Liz is always attentive to all our questions and needs during the experience and especially in the market place! He taught us a homemade way of cooking ajiaco, patacones with hogao and corn arepa that we can replicate at home! It is an experience worth taking.
