? Overview
Join a warm, welcoming Costa Rican family in La Fortuna for a hands-on cooking experience. This isn’t just a cooking class — it's a chance to bond, learn, and share in the rhythms of daily life with real locals.
Cook alongside a local Costa Rican family, gaining insight into their traditions and kitchen practices.

Enjoy a family-style dinner, sharing what you've made in a cozy, communal atmosphere.

Friendly bilingual instructors make the class accessible for many travelers.
When you arrive, the family greets you in their kitchen with a refreshing natural juice and introductions. Then, take a stroll through the organic garden to learn about how they grow their food — and to pick the fresh ingredients that you'll use later.
Back in the kitchen, you'll make mojitos before diving into cooking a typical Costa Rican dish. You'll learn knife skills, cooking techniques, and local tips to bring out authentic flavors.
Once the food is ready, everyone sits down together — just like family — and enjoy the meal you’ve created. There may even be some surprise activities after the meal to make your experience unforgettable.
