Highlights

In this intimate tasting session, you’re welcomed into a local home to explore Peru’s most meaningful flavors through stories, recipes, and traditions passed down for generations. You won’t be cooking; you’ll be savoring. Each tasting is introduced with its cultural background, showing how Indigenous, Spanish, and Afro-Peruvian influences shaped Lima’s food identity. Guests often say this was “the moment our trip to Peru became personal.” The experience feels like sitting at a local family’s table - relaxed, warm, and full of insights you won’t hear on typical tours. Between tastings, your host shares traditions, anecdotes, and the meaning behind each dish, turning flavors into memories. This isn’t a staged show. It’s your behind-the-scenes pass into how Peruvians eat, celebrate, and welcome guests. Seats are intentionally limited to keep the atmosphere personal, so early reservation is recommended.

About Lima

Lima, Peru's capital on clifftops above the Pacific, is a city of colonial plazas, pre-Inca ruins and an exciting, celebrated food scene.

The historic centre, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, revolves around the Plaza Mayor, with the cathedral, the Government Palace and the Archbishop's Palace with its carved wooden balconies. The Monastery of San Francisco hides catacombs beneath its yellow church, and the colonial mansions around it recall the riches of the viceroyalty.

Top-ranked sights in Lima: Miraflores, Lima Plaza Mayor, Church and Convent of Saint Francis (Iglesia y Convento de San Francisco).
