Come and learn Argentina´s magic through typical local recipes in a classic Argentine cuisine!
We open our doors and invite you to our kitchen so as to learn classic dishes while sharing with other people from around the world. Besides, you will be able to see how we live in Argentina including our classic Mate ritual: how to prepare and share it as we do everywhere in Argentina with home-made Alfajores filled with Dulce de Leche.
We offer you a unique experience of a 3 hours class where you will cook everything from scratch with your own hands. At the end we will enjoy everything we cooked together at the table while learning about different Argentinian wines and how they pair with food.
The classes include everything: recipes, kitchen apron and anything you need. You just need to come and enjoy! As classes are given in English and Spanish it is also a great way to improve your Spanish skills!
BOOKINGSPachamama means “mother earth” and represents not only the earth per se but the entire ecosystem including nature and living things. As it is the nucleus in the system of beliefs among native people in most of South American tradition it represents what we want to achieve in this experience: sharing with everyone Argentine´s tradition through cooking and eating all together.
My name is Franco Nesossi. Influenced by childhood memories with my grandparents, I decided to start my studies as a professional Cook. After several years of cooking experiences abroad, working at different restaurants, caterings and other gastronomic businesses I decided to get together two of my biggest passions: Cooking and Teaching.
I have traveled a lot during my life. Everywhere I have gone, most of my memories include great meals, markets and cooking local dishes with other people. I love receiving travelers at my cooking experience and sharing / talking about food, culture, life, while eating and enjoying.
We have a complete and cozy kitchen where up to twelve people can come and be part of Pachamama experience, in an intimate and warm atmosphere.
The place is located in Cañitas: one of the nicest and most calm parts of Palermo. (Some people call it a “pleasant little enclave, a miniature version of Alto Palermo.”)
Palermo is Buenos Aires largest barrio and one of its most walkable one. A really interesting destination for foodies, art fans, shopaholics and revelers alike. Popular with expats, the area has increasingly become populated with locals as well, and today is a veritable melting pot of culture and coolness.
