"Making Burritos from Scratch"

I spent a really enjoyable afternoon learning how to cook burritos. Natalia was a patient teacher and great fun. I highly recommend this class.

"Excellent!"

Had a great time making burritos with Natalya! She had a lovely kitchen and was a great host. She was patient and very helpful and steered the group to make some delicious burritos. The neighborhood has a reputation and certainly not the best part of the city but Natalya made you feel completely comfortable right away, which enhanced the experience even more. Would definitely recommend as an experience!

"Fun and delicious"

Natalia is such a great and sweet host. My 9 year old son and I had a lot of fun cooking the delicious food. The recipes are plant based, but Natalia had no issues adding a chicken recipe for my son, who is very picky with vegetables. It was also a lot of fun to experience a local market where you can buy everything from clothing to chicken and even get your nails or hair done. All in all an amazing experience away from the hustle and bustle of tourist buses and tourist spots.

"Highlight of our trip!"

Natalia was a wonderful instructor! She was extremely kind and accommodating to our group of 7, welcoming us into her home - "mi casa es su casa." We started the class with a tour of the market and quick history lesson, where she answered all of our questions (cooking related and otherwise!). Her relationship with the workers there was invaluable, as it gave us the opportunity to ask them questions about their produce, as well. From there, we went back to her home where she each gave us a fun apron and workspace. We started off by making homemade tortillas. She taught us what the dough should look and feel like, and some changes we could make when we make them in the future. She brought us into her kitchen to make the refried beans, cook the tortillas, and make the salsa! It wasn't just show and tell, she did an excellent job having all seven of us participate. Everything was delicious and I will definitely be making the recipes back home - this class was one of the highlights of our trip, and I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Mexico City!

"Yummms"

This was a delicious experience! My friend and I did the class together and started with a market tour. We didn't just watch the teacher pick up ingredients but rather we were taught about the different peppers and items needed and we helped choose what would be best. The homemade tortillas were so fun to make and I can totally see myself recreating these dishes at home! Two words: Salsa Macha. Ooooh sooooo gooood
