The experience
A hands-on cooking class covering Peru’s best-known dishes and its national cocktail, the pisco sour.
A chef-instructor leads a small group through preparing several of Peru’s signature dishes from scratch, typically including ceviche and a hearty classic such as lomo saltado, in a hands-on rather than demonstration-only format.
The class closes with mixing a proper pisco sour — Peru’s national cocktail, made with the country’s grape brandy, lime, egg white and bitters — learning the technique rather than just tasting the result.
