Enjoy a private cooking class in a local San Juan home in a residential neighborhood away from the touristy center. This is a perfect experience for anyone looking to connect with local Puerto Rican culture over food. Your cooking class takes place in a local home kitchen where Yeira will teach you 4-5 traditional Puerto Rican dishes. After cooking, enjoy your meal together with this warm and friendly local, passionate about food and travel. Experience authentic Puerto Rican life and cuisine with your host Yeira as you cook together and dine on authentic family recipes you won't find in restaurants. Yeira is a fun local host with a doctorate in clinical psychology who believes that food and cooking promotes wellness in people! She is excited to share her authentic Puerto Rican cuisine and culture with those visiting her hometown of San Juan.
