Cozy experience in Buenos

It’s always a pleasure for them to share their love of modern Argentinian cuisine and local ingredients with guests. We started Traveling Spoon to provide guests with a meaningful and immersive cultural experience over food and are so glad you had an authentic Buenos Aires dining experience. We hope it left you with great memories and recipes to take home!

Cuisine, conversation and culture

Murray_L, Feb 2023

When we travel, we love to take a cooking classes, giving us the opportunity to cook (and eat!) local cuisine, as well as make new friends around the world. Josefina and Ignacio were very gracious and accommodating. For example, my wife is vegetarian and I eat meat. Josefina planned the menu to include foods we could both eat and enjoy. We started with an amazing pickled eggplant that we could not get enough of (and made enough to bring 2 jars home with us!). We then moved on to making meat, corn, and vegetable empanadas from scratch. And while the empanadas were cooking, we prepared a caramel flan for dessert. Then we sat down for a great meal, wonderful conversation and wine. It was a magical way to start our visit to Buenos Aires. And, with recipes in hand for all the dishes we made, we can hardly wait to have our own "empanada night" at home!

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Dear Murray, Thank you so much for your joyful review! We’re delighted you enjoyed a personalized cooking class in Buenos Aires with our hosts, from the vegetarian-friendly menu to making empanadas and caramel flan together. It’s wonderful to hear that the recipes and flavors inspired your own “empanada night” at home! They love sharing authentic Buenos Aires cuisine, culture, and conversation with guests, and we’re thrilled your visit was a memorable start to your time in the city.
