- Clothing: Wear comfortable, cool clothing, as Lima's climate is temperate to warm, especially in summer (December to March). Avoid open sandals when visiting the market.
- Footwear: Closed-toe, comfortable shoes are ideal, as you will be standing during the cooking class and walking around the market.
- Appetite: Come hungry! The class ends with a delicious, full meal. There is no need to eat much before the tour.
- Health and Allergies: Please notify the operator in advance if you have any dietary restrictions, food allergies (seafood, gluten, etc.), or if you are vegetarian or vegan. The chef will be happy to make adjustments.
- Equipment: You don't need to bring anything other than your camera or phone to capture the moments. All utensils will be provided.
