A must do in cusco if you like the Peruvian kitchen - Great experience with someone who is passionate about food and products. Really interesting explanation about the peruvian kitchen, then cooking yourself and learning how to make a Pisco sour, or light version of Pisco cocktail. Last minute décision but really enjoyed ourselves

A fun cooking experience worth your while - Marcelo Batata’s cooking class was one of the highlights of our trip! The instructor was so engaging and made the class so much fun. The food was some of the best food we had in Peru and we made it ourselves, with good instructions. I would definitely recommend this taking this class if you are in Cusco.

A must do in Cusco! - We had a blast and didn’t stop smiling the whole time. Jose’s energy and knowledge about the culture and history of Peruvian cuisine was one of the highlights of our Cusco experience. It’s a must do!

Fun informative class. - Nice class. Very friendly teacher. We learned not just about cooking, but also a little bit about the history of Peru and how it affects their cuisine. Unfortunately, the instructor hasn't send the recipes as promised yet.
