Empanada cooking class & Mate tea tasting – RY Marketplace
– Culinary Experience
– Learn to make beef/veggies empanadas from scratch and alfajores de dulce de leche.
– Enjoy empanadas pairing with wine
– Learn all the secrets about mate, the national tea.
Description
If you’re in Argentina you might be eating empanadas everywhere/everyday and you will start to notice some differences. We are pretty sure you will find your favorite empanada restaurant as well!
In this experience we invite you to Marina’s house, a ‘petit hotel house’ in the residential neighborhood of Caballito, where we teach you Sara Figueroa’s recipe, the empanada world’s champion! These empanadas are from Tucuman province and we’ll teach you all about them: how to cook them from scratch, the implicit empanada code, the art in the empanada shape, and the best part: we’ll eat them pairing with excellent wines.
There are other two symbols of our national gastronomy: Alfajores de dulce de leche and mate. We’ll make our own alfajores and we teach you how to prepare a mate properly!

What happens if my booking is changed/cancelled due to weather?
Let’s be real – no one can control the weather, and sometimes things just don’t go as planned. But don’t worry, your City Manager is here to help and will do their best to come up with a solution if an event is affected. We understand that everyone’s schedule is different, so while we can’t guarantee a make-up option will work for everyone, we promise to try our hardest. If you’re unable to attend the make-up date, no problem – we’ll give you a full refund for your booking.

Yes, once you add your item to your cart and check out, you will be able to input the code before completing the purchase. If you need help finding your code, please double check your inbox. You received an email from Marketplace with the code.
Can I book for a friend / family member?
Sure! We welcome your friends and family coming to visit you while you travel the world. We do, however, reserve the right to deny access to Friends / Family who are over using RY Services.

If I cannot attend, can I transfer my ticket to someone else?
Yes, you may transfer your booking to another Nation Member or Family/Friend. Please notify the City Manager as soon as possible to confirm the change.

Will I be able to work on this experience?
If you have to check in with work at any point during the scheduled time, we recommend confirming with the City Manager before booking.
I’m a Nation Member but not on an active program, can I still book?
We will always prioritize Remotes who are traveling with an active program on experiences. You may be able to book but there is a chance the City Manager will reach out to let you know we have to release your spot for an active Remote. If you’re in a city but not traveling with a program, we recommend reaching out to the City Manager on the Hub to confirm before booking.
