Overview

  • Every country has a storey, and in Panama, the best way to hear it is to taste it.

    Over one relaxed evening in a local's home (no walking, no tourist restaurant), you'll sample 32 of Central America's best flavours:

    Empanadas and crispy plantain chips, tropical fruits most visitors never meet, marinated meats and cheeses, fresh mojitos and rum cocktails, and bold Central American coffee to finish.

    Your local host shares the origin, history and meaning behind every bite, so you don't just eat, you learn a whole cuisine without cooking a thing.

    Small tasting portions mean you get through all 32 without filling up.

    As one guest put it, it was “a highlight of our entire trip”; another “left with three new friends.”

    Vegetarian and non-alcoholic options always available.
    Come hungry for the food, and for the stories.

Activity itinerary

Step inside a local home and taste Panama like a local, not a tourist. And join your host for an evening through 32 traditional flavours — empanadas, plantain chips, tropical fruits, marinated meats, rum cocktails and handmade desserts. You'll hear the storey behind each bite while sipping mojitos, discovering how every ingredient connects to Panama's mix of cultures. No walking required, just sit back, taste, laugh and compare favourites. Portions are curated so you taste the whole country without feeling too full. Perfect for couples, friends, families or solo travellers after a fun, cultural evening. Guests call it "a highlight of our entire trip," and many "leave with new friends." Vegetarian and non-alcoholic options always available. And if it's not a five-star night, you won't pay for a four-star one — simple as that. We ask one thing: come hungry for stories. Long after the last bite, you'll still carry the flavours, laughter and memories of Panama with you.
