About this Event

"Ceviche is home." For Chef Juan Carlos Pacha (known warmly as Juanca) those three words say everything. Raised in Peru, one of the world's most revered culinary destinations, Juanca grew up in a family where the love of cooking was passed down from generation to generation, and ceviche held a special place at the center of it all. At the Food Pavilion, he brings that lifelong passion to life in an intimate, hands-on workshop dedicated to Peru's most iconic dish. Born from a desire to share the exciting flavors and secret recipes behind authentic Peruvian ceviche, Ceviche Pacha is Juanca's love letter to his culture and his craft. He'll guide you through every element, the bright, citrus-forward leche de tigre, perfectly fresh fish, and the essential accompaniments of sweet potato, cancha, and choclo revealing the techniques and traditions that make this dish a national treasure. Come with curiosity, leave with skills, and taste the world Juanca calls home.
