Flavours of Latin America Masterclass

For most of us, the idea of South America food sparks notions of adventure, diversity, vibrant colour, fun and passion. Nearly all of which can be experienced through it’s unique and ancient local cuisine. This South American cooking class will take you on an adventure from Lima to Buenos Aires, exploring new ingredients and flavours, which perhaps have never graced your pantry or your palate, but will open a door that will leave you wanting more.

Join us for a fun and interactive hands-on cooking class featuring the fresh flavors of four Latin American countries. Start with Peru where you'll make a ceviche appetizer filled with coriander, lime, cucumbers and tomato. Next, you'll make a stop in Mexico with a jicama and avocado salad. Argentina is next with a chimichurri churrasco steak and papas bravas (potatos). Plus you can try the famous plantains in Bogota and end with the sweet tastes of a Cuban upside-down guava flan for dessert.

Join us for this unique culinary experience!
