- Rua Engenheiro Adozindo Magalhães - When booking only the cooking class, it will commence at the home where the activity takes place. Begin by preparing the signature drink, “caipirinha,” using a fruit of your choice. While enjoying your drink and some appetizers, you will make the famous bread “pão de queijo.” Learn about the ingredients, their origins, and sample simply cooked vegetables that are integral to our cuisine and its roots. Discover the special cheese “queijo coalho” and create a delicious pineapple pepper jelly to accompany it. Since the dessert needs time to cool, you will prepare it first; “brigadeiro” is a traditional, easy-to-make sweet, popular in Brazilian cafes. For the main dish, marinate fish, prawns, or seafood for the “moqueca.” Side dishes include Brazilian-style rice, “pirão,” and “farofa.” Conclude the experience with coffee from the Bahia region, followed by liqueur. If you enjoy DIY, hands-on activities, engaging conversation, and fun, while receiving tips about Salvador, this class is perfect for you.

Wonderful cooking and chatting - I really enjoyed this cooking class. The atmosphere was really welcoming. We had a nice chat while cooking and enjoying cocktails. We talked a lot about food and culture. The food was great and a lot so you will definitely not leave hungry. It was not difficult to prepare so you can easily do it at home by yourself afterwards with the recipes provided. Thanks so much for this experience!

The best cooking class in Bahia! - Please do yourself a favor and book this experience! Karla was very welcoming and made us feel at home. For English speakers, her English is perfect. We made 8 different courses, including caipirinha and everything was hands on so we really felt like we were learning to cook in a relative’s kitchen. Everything was delicious and authentic!

Super experience in Bahia (: - My husband and I took a cooking class at Dona Carla’s home in Salvador de Bahia, and it was an unforgettable experience! Carla welcomed us with warmth and guided us through the preparation of traditional dishes like moqueca, bobó de camarão, grilled cheese, and of course, a delicious caipirinha. It was amazing to learn local recipes in such an authentic and homey setting. Highly recommended! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Perfect cooking evening - It was a perfect evening. We took a lot of time cooking and were able to try different caiparinha (lime, passion fruit, pineapple). We did a lot of different things. The food was extremely delicious and we had a lot of fun.

Amazing cooking class and market tour! - Excellent class!! Highly recommend. Literally the best shrimp I have ever eaten. Our host made the instructions easy to follow and even provides a list of the recipes at the end of the class so we didn’t need to worry about forgetting things later. The class is in a safe area and included a market tour before cooking! She was also able to host the class in both English and Portuguese which was very helpful for our group.
