Cook Chilean dishes in a home kitchen and eat what you make

A private cooking class in Lampa where you learn to prepare traditional Chilean dishes in Patricia's home kitchen, then share the meal together. You choose between hands-on cooking or watching a demonstration, and the class runs about three and a half hours with fresh produce from her garden and a bottle of Carménere included.

The Experience

What does a Chilean home kitchen actually teach you that a cooking school won't? Patricia's kitchen sits in a sprawling ranch-style home in Lampa, outside Santiago, surrounded by fruit and nut trees—mandarin, walnut, and others that supply the produce on her shelves. The kitchen is large and modern with an island where everyone cooks together. She teaches you dishes her family grew up eating: pastel de choclo (a corn and chicken casserole), chupe de mariscos (seafood stew), cazuela (a typical Chilean soup). As you cook, she talks about the ingredients and about learning in the kitchen with her mother and grandmother. The class is private, so it moves at your pace.

You decide upfront whether you want to cook hands-on or watch a demonstration—both work, depending on what you're after. Either way, you're in her kitchen, not a commercial space, and the meal at the end is the one you just made, eaten in a home that Patricia and her husband Enrique have filled with both modern comfort and old-world charm. Bring any dietary restrictions or allergies to the booking, and vegetarian options are available. The class runs about three and a half hours and includes the Carménere, all beverages, and gratuities.

Patricia has a reputation at her office for hosting the best dinner parties—people ask to come just to taste her cooking. You're getting the same kitchen, the same recipes, the same attention she gives to people she knows.

Is this one for you?Choose hands-on cooking if you want to learn the technique and take the skill home with you; choose the demonstration if you'd rather focus on the stories and the meal without managing the cooking yourself. Either way, this is a private class in a home kitchen, not a group setting, so it's built for someone who wants to connect with one cook and her family recipes rather than a larger class environment.
