Skykitchen Peruvian Cooking Class in Lima
Situated in the centre of Lima's Miraflores District, SkyKitchen offers you a unique three-hour experience. We show you how to cook your own Peruvian food. Enjoy your self-prepared dishes while having a conversation with your fellow participants and us.
The concept:
The concept for SkyKitchen is to instruct you in the trained preparation of typical Peruvian dishes in the home of a local Peruvian with an unmatched view over Lima. Our Chefs Yurac, Sonia and Christian, open their home to you so and make this cooking class a personal and private experience. This is a hands-on class. You will be guided through the preparation of all the courses of a meal, allowing you to prepare an authentic Peruvian meal from scratch. You will prepare classic Peruvian cuisine with tools you can find in your own kitchen using the freshest ingredients that you can find in the plentiful markets of Lima. You will leave with detailed instructions and recipes for recreating the meal when you return home. Surely an experience you won't soon forget.
