Prepare savory Caribbean cuisine with Puerto Rican cooking classes
Puerto Rico has a distinct food culture that you’ll be hard pressed to match anywhere else in the world. The local cuisine is influenced by Spanish, Caribbean and International flavors as well as the colorful local produce, fresh fish and fiery style that can only be found in Puerto Rico. Learn how to create some traditional Puerto Rican dishes with a tasty twist and gain a better understanding of local culture with Puerto Rican Cooking Classes while you’re in Rincon.
Tour Option 1: Puerto Rican Cooking Class

Hello,
My husband and I along with our three teenaged sons will be in Rincon for the week of June 9th thru June 16th (departure). Our fifteen year old loves to cook but doesnt like the ocean and requested the ability to take some cooking lessons while in PR. We found the “organic surfer chef”! We would love more information about booking a class in our villa during our stay.
Looking forward to hearing from you soon,
Teresa

I was looking to book a Rinco cooking class but was looking for some additional information. We are staying at the Rinco of the Seas so we do not have a kitchen available to us. Can the class be done at locally at your facilities. We were looking for something Feb 19, 20 or 21 for 3 of us. Would it still be $200? How much extra if we wanted it to include a full meal. Are your instructor able to teach the class in English?
Thank you
Hi Karl, Yes, we can arrange for the chef to host the class somewhere if you do not have a kitchen. We’ll be in touch via email with more details. Thanks!!
