We'll take a walk exploring Medellin's social transformation, from the tram and metro cable, to community sports centers, to stories behind colorful murals that share the neighborhood's history and culture. At the Vía Cocina training center, we'll tour the project spaces and our green rooftop where we'll pick organic herbs and vegetables for the class. I'll explain more about Medellin's transformation, pointing out projects visible from the rooftop situated in breathtaking mountains. I'll also share the challenges of constructing the training center with my own hands.
In the kitchen we'll put on our aprons, learning cutting and prep techniques that make cooking easier and fun. We'll prepare traditional Colombian dishes and popular recipes from our community project, transforming local produce into healthy flavors from around the world. But before we get cooking, we'll have an exotic fruit tasting and prepare fresh juice. After cooking we'll enjoy the meal in our unique colonial style patio, where I've recuperated city heritage with century-old doors and windows. And the best part: your experience has social impact, directly subsidizing cooking classes for low income Colombians!
We will meet at the training centre, you can ring the doorbell next to our red metal gate and we'll let you in to start your experience!
