Lima Food Tours and Cooking Classes
Thirty-one experiences from 18 to 220 euros. And a piece of news your tour operator may not have updated: the market most of these itineraries name has been closed.
Lima's food scene is concentrated into about four districts and one market, and there is a problem with the market. The Mercado Nº 1 de Surquillo, opened in 1939 and named in a great many food tour itineraries, has been closed: shut on safety grounds, partly derelict, with its roof having given way in places, and the subject of a legal fight between two municipalities over who owns it.
Ask your operator which market you are actually visiting. Most now use the Nº 2, a few streets away, which is a working market and a perfectly good one.
