He was thoughtful, attentive and walked us through every step of the cooking process. The food was so tasty at the end.

Awesome cooking class - We had such a lovely time with Kevin and Colin during this class. We have taken cooking classes in a few different countries as we find it is a great way to learn about the food and culture from the people that live it. We made vegetarian ceviche, pico de gallo, empanadas, patacones, yucca chips and spicy salsa. All of it was delicious and we can't wait to make it again when we get home. The staff were amazing. They were so friendly and we had so much fun with them. If we had more time we would come back and do more tours with them as they offer every kind of activity you can think of. We would recommend this class for couples, families, solo travellers and even large groups. They said they can cater to dietary needs and they would even take requests if you contact them ahead of time to ask to make something specific.
