Authentic Empanada Cooking adventure in Buenos Aires

The small group empanada cooking class was a wonderful experience while traveling through Buenos Aries. Overall this experience was exactly as advertised to bring a cooking experience to tourists with a down to earth and fun way to learn about the culture and enjoy some quiet quality time in the city. Our your guide Mika P. Was excellent from her enthusiasm for teaching us the traditional craft of making empanadas to an in depth overview to the history and cooking style of the people in Argentina. The setting provided made it feel like being just at home where people traveling could feel just at home with eachother in an interpersonal class to make it feel just like cooking with family. Not only was it a great experience, but provided the insight and skills for being able to bring this cooking style home to my own family and friends and to the rest of the world. I definitely would recommend anyone who likes cooking and trying foods from around the world to give it a try if you are in the Buenos Aries, Palermo Soho area!

Great experience well worth your time.

Great host in Micaela D and the lady who ran the kitchen. Excellent fun making and eating the food. Really good wine and great company from the host and others. Highly recommended.

Great evening

We had a lovely evening making empanadas and tasting Argentinian wines. Micaela D was very friendly and knowledgeable and made the experience very relaxed. She showed us how to fold the empanadas (not as easy as it sounds) and gave us lots of tips for the rest of our stay in Buenos Aries. Would recommend this experience and the host!

A great way to spend an evening while in Buenos Aires

This is a great way to learn about local food and wine while in Argentina. Micaela was very helpful and attentive, and she made the empanada preparations easy for us - even my friend who has no cooking experience managed fine.
