Students can make like renowned Michelin-starred chef Jiro and realize their sushi dreams at this culinary institute in Tokyo.

Join Chef Paco, owner of Petit Four Pâtisserie and Confiserie, for a market tour, and then return to the 18th-century casa's kitchen to discover the techniques for making salsa verde, guacamole, chilaquiles, and even the michelada, Mexico's well-known beer cocktail.


Casa Luna Cooking School, Bali, Indonesia


One of Bali's top cooking schools, Casa Luna Cooking School in Ubud teaches students how to make traditional Balinese dishes as well as the significance of food in Balinese culture and how to use the many herbs and spices that are used in the cuisine. Following the class, participants typically prepare a sumptuous meal, which is served with homemade hibiscus tea or local rice wine.


Beit Sitti Cooking School, Amman, Jordan


In one of Amman's oldest neighborhoods, the Beit Sitti cooking school is a social enterprise that employs local women who share decades of culinary knowledge while teaching their regional dishes—felafel, ouzisurar, freakehoudjaj, tabbouleh, and kibbeh. The name translates as "My Grandmother's House," and it was founded by three sisters. When dining on the lovely terrace, savor the delicate fragrances and textures.
