Next, we’ll head to a nearby restaurant for our cooking class led by a Peruvian chef. You’ll learn to prepare three essential classics: ceviche, lomo saltado, and the iconic pisco sour. Step by step, the chef will share his secrets to achieving the perfect balance of flavor, freshness, and tradition in every dish.
