Besides the cost of the ingredients, each dish costs 10 soles per person. It is recommended that you pick 2 dishes per class; one appetizer and one main course. The reason being is that you will be eating what you make so if you pick 2 main dishes you will be eating a double lunch! Plus, it's a nice to space out the class and just enjoy what will be a delicious two course meal. But these are only suggestions; the menu is totally up to you.
