Over the course of the experience, you’ll sample some of Cusco’s most memorable flavors, from traditional street bites and regional favorites to drinks and recipes that reflect the city’s Andean heritage.

...It was the best meal I had in Peru, and it cost less than a restaurant appetizer.

via GetYourGuide ★ 5.0

I'd already done the main sites in Cusco — Sacsayhuamán, the main plaza, the usual. This was the part of the city I wouldn't have found on my own. Our guide took us to stalls where the food is made the same way it's been made for decades, explained the Andean ingredients I'd been seeing but not understanding, and let the stops breathe instead of rushing us. By the end I'd eaten well, learned something real, and seen a version of Cusco that felt like it actually belonged to the people who live there...
