The story
Santo Sabor Festival Sucre in Sucre
Santo Sabor is Sucre's Holy Week food festival, built around the twelve traditional Lenten dishes, prepared without red meat but full of flavor, that Chuquisaca families have historically served during the religious calendar's most solemn week. Around twenty chefs reinterpret those grandmother recipes in colonial courtyard settings such as the Universidad Catolica Boliviana's San Cristobal seminary. It runs alongside Sucre's wider Holy Week tourism program and complements, rather than competes with, the city's religious processions.
Santo Sabor gathers Sucre's kitchens around a very specific culinary rule: the twelve traditional dishes of Holy Week, prepared without red meat but built for flavor rather than austerity.
