All wise travelers agree that a country’s cuisine is an integral part of its culture and identity, and what better way to get to Chile’s “soul” than to experience its gastronomy in the home of a well-known local chef. Maria Eugenia Terragno, formerly the executive chef of LAN airlines, welcomes you into her home for a lunch that will undoubtedly be one of the most memorable experiences of your trip. Enjoy the relaxed atmosphere in her beautiful kitchen while sipping a homemade pisco sour – the best in Santiago! – and savoring the exquisite dishes she prepares as Maria Eugenia shares with you her passion for and knowledge of Chilean gastronomy.

Note: For groups of 6 or larger, dinner can be arranged at Maria Eugenia’s home. Consider a food & wine pairing dinner which combines Maria Eugenia’s cuisine with with MOVI (Movement of Independent Vitners) wines – led by MOVI winemakers – for an unforgettable, exclusive experience.
