    Very nice cooking class for all levels!!

    Me and my boyfriend are traveling through Colombia and ate a lot of Empanadas so ofcourse we had to learn it ourselfs to be able to make it at home. So happy we booked this class! Our chef Jheams picked us up on time and took us to a little local store where we bought the last ingredients. His presence was so lovely and with humor and patience he teached us how to make Cartagena style Empanadas, which we enjoyed afterwards with a beautiful view! Highly recommend!

    Great workshop and very friendly staff!

    Jheams was so welcoming and we had a great time making empanadas! We had a quick walk to the market to pick up some yuca and then he showed us how to make the Cartagena style empanadas. They were delicious and the view from his place was lovely!
