Learn to make the traditional Moqueca, a beautiful Brazilian fish stew, with a chef video calling you, live from Brazil
You'll feel like you've transported to the beautiful coasts of Brazil in this cooking class. Eaten across the country from north to south, but particularly along the coast, Moqueca is a seasoned fish stew with a varying list of ingredients based on the region. Generally you'll always find seafood, peppers and herbs - but some recipes use palm oil, others coconut milk, and others none at all.
One unifying connector, a traditional Moqueca would be made in a clay pot, which was used as a superior cooking vessel, but also to impart a unique flavor as well. While you may not have a clay pot in this class, you will learn how to work with fish at home, and transform it into a beautiful and brightly colored fish stew. Book your private cooking class with Chef Renato who will video call you live from his kitchen in Brazil. In your private class, you'll get personalized attention, it's just you and the chef! Share stories and have some fun in your kitchen. When you're done, say goodbye to your personal chef and enjoy a hearty fish stew.

Chef Renato
Minas Gerais, Brazil
Owner of Dona Xica, traditional Brazilian restaurant in village outside Rio de Janerio, Trip Advisor Certificate of Excellence
Chef Renato was born and raised in Rio de Janeiro. He holds a Bachelor’s degree in Biology, as well as an MBA and a Master’s in Biophysics, all from UFRJ. From 2001, he spent 12 years traveling across Brazil while working for the government, where he developed a deep love for regional Brazilian cuisines and the art of cooking.
Driven by his passion, Chef Renato pursued culinary training at the prestigious Institute of Culinary Education in New York City, where he graduated from the Culinary Arts program. He then gained experience working in restaurants in Rio de Janeiro and sought culinary inspiration both across Brazil and abroad, including a stint as a private chef in Spain. His travels, particularly his time in Spain, deepened his appreciation for tapas, which he brought back to Brazil.
Upon returning to Brazil, Chef Renato opened his own restaurants and culinary experiences. He now resides in Tiradentes, MG, one of Brazil’s most influential culinary centers, where he owns and operates Dona Xica, a restaurant serving traditional local Brazilian food. He also offers in-person cooking classes, sharing his approach: “Quality ingredients and simple techniques never go wrong.”
Chef Renato is passionate about meeting people, making new friends, and sharing tips and tricks of the trade. Let’s cook together!
