Itinerary and highlights
Experience Puerto Rico through its flavors at Heaven Hills Kitchen, a hands-on cooking experience celebrating the island’s food, culture, and traditions.
Begin with a warm welcome and introduction to the day’s menu, then craft a tropical Puerto Rican-inspired cocktail using local flavors.
Next, put on your apron and head to the kitchen! Prepare an appetizer such as empanadillas, bacalaítos, queso frito, shrimp ceviche, or wings. Then create your main course, choosing from favorites like churrasco, shrimp, Kan-Kan pork, whole fried snapper, mahi-mahi, or pastelón. Complete your meal with traditional sides such as mofongo, rice & beans, granos, tostones, or majado de malanga.
Finish with a classic dessert—tres leches, flan, or tembleque—while learning techniques you can recreate at home. Once the cooking is complete, gather around the table, relax, and enjoy the multi-course meal you created together.
Come hungry and ready to cook, learn, and experience Puerto Rico!
