Overview

Guidekin summary

A private hands on class with a local couple at their countryside home about an hour from San Juan or Ponce, cooking family recipes and eating them with local wine or beer. There is no pickup and no ride share out there, so you need a car. 5 from 36 reviews at €146 per person.

From the guide

This is a unique opportunity to meet a lovely, local couple and learn about Puerto Rican cuisine and culture. Their beautiful countryside home where your Puerto Rican cooking class takes place is located about 1 hour from San Juan or Ponce. Rafi and Lela are a lovely couple who come from large families (Lela has 32 in her immediate family!) that enjoy food, cooking and partying! Rafi learned to cook from his father and everyone in Lela's family is passionate about cooking or barbecuing. They recently converted their house with a stunning view of the mountains and sea into a B&B. They are excited to host guests for a Puerto Rican cooking class in their home and share their culture and cuisine with them!

• 3-hour private cooking class with a local
• Immerse yourself in Puerto Rican culture and cuisine
• Enjoy lunch after cooking over wine
• Experience Puerto Rican hospitality
