3 hours

Easy

A feel-good Costa Rican grill night where everyone’s welcome. Learn to grill local cuts over open fire, taste rare marinades, and share stories, music, and chilled drinks under the stars. Come hungry, leave inspired.
This is a feel-good evening where everyone is welcome grill newbies and seasoned carnivores alike. You’ll be welcomed into an open-air space or cozy patio in San José, where coals are glowing, music is playing, and the scent of garlic, lime, and slow-roasted meat fills the air.

Start with a welcome drink, meet your hosts and fellow guests, and get right into prepping and grilling side by side. You’ll learn about Costa Rica’s cuts, how to build a perfect fire, and the secrets to juicy, flavor-packed meat. Along the way, you’ll snack, sip, laugh, and eat together like family.

Come hungry, leave inspired.
