What you can expect
Join your local host in Punta Cana for a relaxed 3-hour cooking experience built around a Dominican family-style menu and the culture behind it. Start with Passion Colada, then prepare a fresh guasacaca-style sauce, arepitas de yuca, and mofonguitos. Continue with pica pollo, tostones, and moro de guandules con coco, then finish with dulce de coco con leche and Morir SoƱando, the classic Dominican orange-and-milk drink. As you cook and taste, your host shares the stories behind each dish and the everyday traditions that shape Dominican dining. The menu may vary slightly depending on season and availability. Morir SoƱando is widely recognised as a Dominican drink made with milk and orange juice, and Punta Cana tourism explicitly recommends trying local foods like pica pollo and tostones.
Sample Menu
- Passion Colada, Tropical passion fruit colada-style welcome drink.
- Guasacaca-style sauce, Fresh green sauce to serve with the starters.
- Arepitas de yuca, Grated yuca fritters with egg, salt, and aniseed.
- Mofonguitos, Mini plantain mofongo bites filled with chicken or beef.
- Pica pollo, Dominican-style fried chicken, a local favourite in Punta Cana.
- Tostones, Double-fried green plantains, a classic Dominican side.
- Moro de guandules con coco, Coconut rice with pigeon peas.
- Dulce de coco con leche, Creamy coconut dessert.
- Morir SoƱando, Dominican traditional drink
This is not a hotel buffet or a generic demo. It is a home-style class centred on a full Dominican menu that moves from tropical drinks to savoury bites, a main dish, and a coconut dessert. The menu brings together recognisable local staples, mofongo/mofonguitos, pica pollo, tostones, and Morir SoƱando, so the experience feels unmistakably Dominican.
