Afro-Brazilian Cooking Workshop
Flavors of Bahia
Discover Afro-Brazilian cuisine from Bahia through an authentic culinary experience in Itacaré.
During this workshop, you learn how to prepare typical Afro-Brazilian and Bahian dishes, discovering the ingredients, techniques, and flavors that are part of everyday local life.
The workshops can take place inside traditional community homes or directly at your home or accommodation, depending on your preference.
