About this activity

This half day tour takes you to the local food market in the historical centre and to a very cosy restaurant where you will prepare your traditional Ecuadorian dishes. The chef goes to the market with you and explains you about the endemic fruits and vegetables.

Before the cooking class begins, you will be given a chef’s hat, an apron and a mini recipe book with 3 dishes you will be cooking. These recipes that you will cook are traditional Ecuadorian dishes: Locro Quiteño, Encocado and a Chocolate soup. The cooking class usually starts around 11:30 AM, but since it is a private tour you can send us an email if you would like to change the time. You can also integrate this tour in a Quito city tour.
