Meet Constanza (Cruise)

Constanza is a professional chef trained at the prestigious Instituto Argentino de Gastronomía (IAG), one of Argentina’s top culinary schools. Her true passion lies in mastering the art of the Argentine asado — the country’s beloved barbecue tradition. With expert knowledge of fire, timing, and technique, your host prepares perfectly grilled meats and vegetables while sharing the cultural stories and rituals that make the asado such an essential part of Argentine life. Though she’s traveled widely and loves recreating global flavors, Constanza’s favorite meals are those that bring people together around the grill. Warm, engaging, and deeply passionate about Argentine cuisine, she and her husband take joy in hosting guests, teaching them asado secrets, and creating an unforgettable culinary experience.

What to expect

Please note menu might vary. If there are particular dishes you are interested in trying, please include your request in the booking form.

Cooking experience: (1-10 guests) Experience a Buenos Aires shore excursion that takes you beyond the port and into the heart of Argentine culture through food. Join your host, Constanza, at her welcoming home in El Talar for a hands-on Argentine cooking class and traditional asado (barbecue). Begin with a refreshing welcome drink and local snacks before stepping into her lush backyard, where you’ll learn to slow-cook meats and vegetables over aromatic Quebracho wood, a hallmark of Argentine grilling. Discover different cuts of meat, master local cooking techniques, and taste homemade sauces that make an asado unforgettable. Then, sit down with Constanza and her family to enjoy a feast of perfectly grilled meats and vegetables, classic Argentine sides, and decadent desserts such as caramel-filled crepes or mini rogel cakes, accompanied by local wine, coffee or tea. This Buenos Aires shore excursion from the port includes round-trip transfers, making it ideal for cruise travelers. Enjoy an authentic, immersive experience of Argentine cuisine, culture, and hospitality — all in one unforgettable culinary adventure.

Notes: Constanza is happy to accommodate vegetarians and other dietary restrictions; please let her know your dietary preferences when booking.
