About
This experience is special because it offers an authentic cultural immersion inside a real Bahian home. Instead of a commercial cooking class, you cook side-by-side with a welcoming local family, learning recipes, stories, and traditions passed down through generations. You visit the historic São Joaquim Market with a private guide, choose fresh ingredients, prepare iconic Afro-Bahian dishes, and enjoy a homemade meal in an intimate, warm atmosphere. It’s a genuine connection to Bahia’s flavors, history, and people—something you simply can’t experience in a restaurant or with a professional chef.
