Description

The heart of Dominican culture beats in its kitchen, and today, it’s yours to discover. In this intimate Santo Domingo home, you’ll cook shoulder-to-shoulder with a local host, learning the flavors that generations grew up with. From silky mangú con los tres golpes and savory pollo guisado simmered in sofrito, to crisp golden pastelitos de pollo and a velvety dulce de coco laced with cinnamon, each dish is a story told through flavor. As you sip refreshing jugo de chinola (passionfruit juice), your bilingual host will guide you step by step, blending culinary technique with cultural storytelling. This isn’t a studio class, it’s an intimate dive into how Dominicans actually cook and celebrate. The vibe is hands-on yet relaxed, where laughter flows as easily as conversation, and strangers quickly become friends around the stove. By the end, you’ll gather at the table for a family-style feast of everything you’ve created, complete with recipes and insider tips to take home.
