About

Our Culinary experience starts with an introduction to México's essential ingredients and flavors, our most representative food, how to buy and preserve dry chiles, and all about tortilla process; also we'll learn about mezcal and will do a mezcal tasting, along with Oaxaca's must traditional appetizer! we'll have “THE traveler ultimate experience” in traditional food!

Then, we'll go through the whole process, from scratch, to prepare and cook an authentic and traditional Mexican menu, collecting some of the ingredients from our garden.

Many of the dishes you will learn and help to cook come from my own family recipes. As a Mexican native, I inherited my Mexican cuisine from my previous generations, and my passion too!

Cooking class completed, we'll sit down to share the fruits of our labor, along with a "jarrito de agua fresca " or beer, or wine (or both!) and enjoy life!

First and foremost, the instructor was fantastic. Her passion for Mexican cooking was contagious, and she created a warm and welcoming environment for everyone in the class. She was not only incredibly knowledgeable but also patient and attentive, ensuring that each participant felt comfortable and engaged throughout the session. Overall, my authentic Mexican cooking class was an exceptional experience that I wholeheartedly recommend. Whether you're a seasoned cook or a complete beginner, this class offers a wonderful opportunity to dive into the world of Mexican cuisine and learn from passionate experts. Prepare to be amazed by the flavors, captivated by the stories, and inspired to bring a taste of Mexico into your own kitchen. It truly deserves a resounding five-star rating!

"Amazing!!!!!"

So authentic, educational and intimate. A group of about 10-12 travelers from across the states and Europe were brought together by Lily to teach us all about the Mexican heritage and way of cooking. The food was incredible too! Would do it again and again. 10/10 recommend.

"A wonderful experience"

We had such an incredible time in this class. It was such a pleasure getting to know Lily and spending some time cooking together.

"Incredible, just amazing. Lily was a wonderful host and the food was delicious!"

Lily welcomed us into her beautiful home to show us how to cook authentic mexican food, and everything about the experience was amazing! The food was delicious, and lily gave wonderful explanations and demonstrations of everything too, complete with great music. 10/10 would recommend. She made us feel like family!

"Amazing, fun and delicious!"

I wish I could rate this more than 5 stars! My husband and I had the best time doing this cooking class. Lily was warm and welcoming, and we learnt so much about Mexican food. We enjoyed getting our hands dirty and making tortillas. We were so full afterwards, stuffing ourselves with the tacos, quesadillas and salsas that we made.
