I loved every minute of the class with Yurac and Christian. The food was simple but amazing with Yurac giving simple cooking hints while Christian interpreted for him. I especially enjoyed Yurac talking about the agriculture and background info on the history of Peruvian cuisine. An incredibly enjoyable experience! More

Coming from a chef, this was one of the best cooking classes I've ever had the pleasure of being a part of lately. Chef Yurac was very knowledgable about Peruvian food. The menu choosen was nothing but perfection. The ingredients were fresh and the food was delicious. Everyone walked away, happy, full and wanting to come back. Hats off to... More

What a fun way to spend a night in Lima! Yurac and Christian are delightful and they warmly welcome you into their kitchen. We were a group of eight at the dinner session and had a blast cooking--and eating--the four course meal that showcased Peruvian cuisine and culture. Another highlight of the evening was Yurac's insightful explanation of the different... More

Yurac and Christian are both knowledgeable and sharing of the culinary and historical aspects of Peru. The four of us created a four course meal beginning with our Lucuma mousse dessert, Yum, Lucuma is a new flavor for me and it is in the avocado family. Our fish soup had over 25 ingredients. We also created a salad, Alpaca burgers,... More

Can't talk highly enough of SkyKitchen. The communication before hand was excellent and we found the address, which was very close and in Miraflores easily. The kitchen has an open air terrasse where you have great views of the city. We were met by Christian who assists Yuruk the chef and immediately puts you at ease. Soon after our 7... More

We had a long lay-over in Lima and needed something to do. I wrote to some tour companies that probably knew I was American and they quoted me outrageous prices to tour the city at over $100 per person. So I turned to Tripadvisor to see what I could do and I found SkyKitchen. Perfect! I like to cook and... More

Yurac and Christian were the perfect hosts. It was a great evening out - met some fantastic people, great atmosphere, fantastic view of Miraflores and learnt to cook some beautiful Peruvian food. Food was also very delicious - if I do say so myself! Highly recommend taking the oppourtunity to take one of their classes when you are in Lima! More

Lima is a city where you would want to wake up a few hours earlier to start eating. We stayed for 4 days and didn´t have enough time to taste all that we wanted. But we not only wanted to taste, we wanted to take the flavours home. Skykitchen cooking class was the perfect opportunity for this. We learned how... More

During my visit to Lima, I had the opportunity to take advantage of the Peruvian cooking class in the Miraflores district of Lima. As soon as I arrived at this beautiful penthouse, I was greeted with a warm welcome from Chief Yurac and his culinary partner, Christian. I loved the class. We made traditional Peruvian food including one of my... More

We had a great time learning how to cook causa, tiradito, lomo Saltado and Peruvian doughnuts. Our teachers, Yurac and Christian, were lots of fun, patient and great at teaching us how to cook these traditional meals. Come with an empty stomach and a couple of bottles of wine. Dinner will ake about four hours to make - and eat! More
