Enter into the world of Peruvian gastronomy, by learning to master the globally renowned dish, Ceviche.

In this class, Chef Alexander will teach you how to recognize and source fresh products and will guide you through the process of preparing this refreshing and flavorful dish.
This class is not just about cooking; it's a celebration of Peru's rich culinary heritage and the creative flair of modern cuisine. Plating your dish will definitely leave you with a meal that is not only mouth-watering, but also picture perfect.

Chef Alex is a Peruvian Chef who’s been in the industry for over 12 years, both in Peru and throughout a number of restaurants and hotels in the United States. He was born in Celendin (Cajamarca), a little town in the mountains of Peru, but he grew up in Callao on the coast of Lima where he learned all about seafood and the importance and beauty of fresh fish. His love for Japanese food started as a fusion of cultures, or as the Peruvians call it Nikkei (Peruvian-Japanese). He also had the opportunity to work with sushi in Miami a couple years ago, where he learned the importance of simplicity and respect for the traditional Japanese method. Chef Alex loves all food and is also well-versed in pasta, as he had a little home restaurant back in Peru serving up fresh pasta dishes with quality ingredients. He is so happy to be your Chef instructor and very excited to express and share his passion for the culinary world!
