The experience with the chef was amazing. Very friendly knowledgeable, professional and overall great! We could not ask for better experience. Really felt like we traveled to Peru.

Chef Gustavo was INCREDIBLE. I highly recommend taking a class with him. He was so personable, friendly and truly made you feel like family! I learned so much about Peruvian cuisine and I’m so glad that I got a chance to take his class!
