How Does the “Cooking and Eating” activity work?

Cuk-Cuk’s flagship activity begins with choosing the dish to cook (and eat!). If you’re not sure, they’ll recommend you based on your preferences.

Once you have clear the dish you want to try, you have to call Cuk-Cuk to specify the day on which the activity will be done.

1. You choose the dish you want to try and cook
2. Call Cuk-Cuk to book a specific day
3. You go to Cuk-Cuk on the agreed day,there you will have all the fresh ingredients and the material
4. You wash your hands and start cooking step by step following Alex and Elena’s instructions and advice!
5. You participate 100% in the cooking process. There is an induction cooker for every 2 people, so you’ll have plenty of room to enjoy the kitchen
6. While cooking, you can have a glass of Menorquin wine or other drinks of your choice, or sample a selection of Menorcan products (cheeses and cold cuts).
7. When you’ve finished cooking, you sit down and eat the dish you’ve prepared.
8. At the end there is a characteristic dessert of Menorca for you to enjoy a full meal.

In short, the activity consists of having a good time cooking delicious dishes (1 hour approximately) and then savoring them in the cozy garden of Cuk-Cuk. And by the way, if you tell them that you go from MenorcaDifferente and do a cooking workshop, they give you a glass of Menorquín vermouth.
