We had the best time cooking empanadas and alfajores with Michaela D! She was so friendly and welcoming! Her English was excellent! Highly recommend her if you are interested in learning to make empanadas and experience Argentina’s hospitality.
I had such a wonderful time at the empanada and alfajores class! The instructor was warm, knowledgeable, and made every step easy to follow. The hands-on experience was fun, and I learned techniques I can’t wait to use at home. The empanadas were absolutely delicious, and the alfajores were incredible, buttery, delicate, and absolutely melt-in-your-mouth. The atmosphere was welcoming and relaxed, making it a perfect experience whether you’re an experienced baker or trying something new for the first time. I highly recommend this class to anyone who enjoys cooking, learning about different cultures, or simply loves amazing food. I left with new skills, fantastic recipes, and wonderful memories. I would definitely sign up for another class!
I loved this experience!! The food wss so good and the people were all so nice:)
So fun, good food great people! The chef was knowledgeable and friendly. Loved the chatting with people from all over the world
An amazing experience! Micaela D was an excellent instructor. I learned a lot and will definitely attempt these dishes at home. I got to sample different types of Dulce de leche, and the cooking was really hands on. It was a fun and informative experience in a beautiful location. If you’re considering this activity, book it, you won’t regret it!
Paulo was such a great host and teacher! We learned and enjoyed cooking empanadas so much that we came back for another session with Paulo as well, but to learn how to cook alfajores and to drink some mate. We fully recommend this experience! Loved it!
This was one of our favourite family experiences in BA. Had the delightful Carla introduce us to Argentinian cooking - the beef empanadas were a hit as was the vegetarian lentil empanada and, of course, the alvajores we made were nothing short of sensational! Can't wait to make these at home! We were made to feel so welcome and really loved the whole experience including the "mate" experience, which is so unique and we appreciated learning about it. Thank you Carla and Valeria for having us.
We had such a wonderful time cooking with Rachel and team today! Not only was the food delicious, we learned so much about the culture of Buenos Aires- from food to history and beyond. My 5 year was welcomed and catered to. It was well worth it!!!
Kai was great! The empanadas were delicious.
We had so much fun! Vanina and Marla were wonderful teachers and the food was delicious! Thank you for a great experience!
Vanina and Marla were great hosts for our class. We had a lot of fun and it was all at a nice pace. Would highly recommend!
Thanks Micaela D for the cooking class, we were only two and she was very nice with good explanation. It was a very good class, I advice.
This was fun and the food was so good. I just wish we were each able to need our own dough for alfajores and the space is quite tight
Paulo was so patient and kind! Really made us feel comfortable and was so knowledgeable about so many aspects of Argentina. We learned a lot! It was an absolutely wonderful experience for my sister and me. I would definitely recommend doing this experience, not matter how much cooking experience you have!! Thank you! :-)

We had such a lovely experience with Carolina, making empanadas and alfajores! It was just the three of us which was so nice, we learnt a lot and had a good laugh cooking and baking. Highly recommend!
Amazing experience. Wonderful cook/baker with deep knowledge. Expertly involved our seven year old in sautéing and building and baking the empanadas. Highly recommend.
Really learned a lot and had a great time. Tatiana was well prepared and very warm and informative. We had a great time that changed our view of the city. Best empanadas of our trip. Highly recommend it.
Valentin is an exceptional chef with patience to explain everything about how to make empanadas and alfajores. We never knew there were so many different kinds of empanadas & now know how to tell beef from ham & cheese. Very intimate setting at a Wine Window bar
