Private Modern Argentinian Gourmet Cooking Class in Buenos Aires with Locals

This is a unique opportunity to visit the home of a local and explore traditional culture and cuisine. Meet your hosts Josefina and Ignacio at their late 19th century apartment located in the Montserrat neighborhood of Buenos, with lovely views of the city’s central boulevard leading to the obelisco. Start with a welcome drink of wine or a cocktail and a small appetizer such as a Josefina’s homemade pickled eggplant dip. Josefina will lead your cooking class in their kitchen where you will learn to prepare three seasonal, gourmet Argentinian dishes from scratch. Then sit down together at their communal dining table to enjoy a modern, 4-course gourmet meal, which will feature a starter such as beetroot carpaccio with blue cheese and a balsamic reduction, followed by a first course such as panko-fried shrimp on a couscous tower, topped with a herb sauce. For your main course, enjoy fresh Argentinian beef tenderloin, served with a mandarin and ginger sauce alongside creamy potatoes. End your meal with a sweet dessert of dark chocolate mousse with caramelized fruits, and coffee or tea. Bread and filtered water will also be available.

Enjoy a private and authentic cooking class in a local home with host Josefina, a special advisor of foreign affairs by day who has been cooking since the age of 12. This is a perfect experience for anyone looking to connect with local culture over food. Your cooking class will take place in a local home kitchen where Josefina will teach you how to make 2-3 traditional Argentinian dishes from her family recipes. After cooking, enjoy your meal together in your hosts' home.
