Taste Nicaragua: Market to table cooking experience
We start the experience by meeting you at our central point or picking you up from your hostel—your choice. After a quick introduction to Nicaraguan cuisine, we head to the vibrant local market. Here, you’ll see, smell, and taste a variety of fresh ingredients while learning about their history and significance. Then it’s off to the kitchen, where everything is prepared for you to cook at your own pace, follow the steps, and savor every moment.
