Anilu and her husband Diego run a small B&B called Pakakuna Posada located in Urubamba, Peru’s Sacred Valley. Their home is an hour and a half drive outside Cusco through a beautiful, rugged mountain landscape. Diego is a professional chef and worked in restaurants in Lima. Anilu is not a chef, but she loves to eat and in her previous professional life she was a food engineer. They moved to Urubama for a slower pace of life and the chance to raise their young twins in the countryside. The B&B has a warm, relaxed feel and is decorated with artisan furniture and curios made by local artisans. Diego cooks traditional Peruvian dishes with gourmet quality, so be prepared to eat well at their home!
Diego can demonstrate how to cook the dishes, or you can have a hands-on lesson. Just let them know your preferences!
Alcohol is available for purchase at the Pakakuna bar. They have a variety of local beers and cocktails on offer.
