Cook and Feast: Traditional Andean Cooking Experience in Cuenca

Instead of a polished studio, you’ll step into a lived-in Cuenca home, surrounded by family heirlooms, Andean cookware, and the hum of daily life.

Here, every detail is personal: the chef opens not only their kitchen but also their own traditions, showing cooking techniques and rituals rarely shared with outsiders.

This behind-the-scenes access means you don’t just learn how to prepare food, you understand why it matters, and how each ingredient carries history from the Andes to your plate.

For travelers who crave authenticity, this is the kind of experience you simply can’t book at restaurants or markets. It’s an intimate cultural exchange, perfect for those who value connection over crowds.

You’ll leave with more than recipes, you’ll carry stories of heritage, exclusive local tips for exploring Cuenca’s food scene, and the rare memory of having been welcomed as part of an Andean household.
