Overview

Trade crowded restaurants for a real Medellín kitchen, where cooking becomes the easiest way to understand the city.

In this hands-on class, you’ll join a local host to prepare traditional Colombian recipes, share drinks, and experience the kind of hospitality that makes the meal feel just as memorable as the food itself.

Throughout the class, you’ll learn step by step how to make a selection of authentic dishes using fresh ingredients and traditional techniques inspired by everyday Colombian cooking.

Drinks are served as you cook, the atmosphere stays relaxed and social, and the experience unfolds at an easy pace that makes it perfect for couples, solo travelers, and groups alike.

It’s the kind of experience that gives you real recipes, genuine connection, and a far more personal taste of Medellín than you’d get from a typical restaurant.

Vegetarian options and alcohol-free drinks are available upon request, and dietary restrictions can be accommodated.
