Location Buenos Aires, The Pampas, Argentina
$60
This is an experience gift voucher. The recipient will book the experience after they redeem the gift voucher.

Overview

Step into my historic San Telmo home, in the city’s oldest neighborhood. We’ll start with a traditional mate as I tell you a few stories about San Telmo, the bohemian heart of Buenos Aires, where tango was born, and every corner has a story to tell.

Let’s dive into making empanadas! We’ll knead, roll, and shape the dough from scratch, just like my grandmother taught me.
You’ll choose between classic beef or vegetarian filling, and I’ll show you how to fold them perfectly using the “repulgue” technique.
While we cook, we’ll sip on Malbec, and for dessert, we’ll make alfajorcitos de dulce de leche.
It’s going to be a warm and delicious experience you’ll love!

I invite you to cook empanadas at my family’s home, right in the heart of San Telmo, the oldest and most picturesque neighborhood in the city! We’ll start with a well-prepared mate while I share stories about this bohemian corner of Buenos Aires, the birthplace of tango, where magic can be found on every corner.

Then, we’ll get hands-on with the dough, making empanadas from scratch—kneading, rolling, and shaping them just as my grandmother taught me. You can choose between the classic beef filling or a veggie option, and I’ll show you how to seal them with the traditional repulgue.

We’ll pair the experience with a delicious Malbec, and for dessert, we’ll make exquisite alfajorcitos filled with dulce de leche.

Come and immerse yourself in our culture and traditions through all the senses! We can’t wait to cook, laugh, and share stories with you at home!
