About this experience
If you're looking for a fun, hands-on culinary experience with an expert this class is the perfect fit for you!
Guided by our local instructor, you’ll grill fresh shrimp, octopus, seabass, and mussels over open flames while learning the secrets behind Brazil’s coastal cuisine. Between bites, sip unlimited caipirinhas and enjoy sides like buttery cassava and bright vinaigrettes — dishes that every Carioca loves to share.
Whether you come solo or with friends, you’ll leave with new skills, full plates, and even fuller hearts.
We wrap up with a classic Brazilian dessert — Romeo & Juliet (guava and cheese) — the perfect sweet note to end your day.
Most guests call this a “Top 3 Rio experience” for its mix of flavor, culture, and connection.
And remember: our Five-Star Guarantee means that if it’s not five stars, you don’t pay for four.
Don’t feel like cooking? Book as a youth instead of an adult for a lower price, and simply watch, eat, drink, and enjoy the class.
