Chef José met us on time and took us on an interesting trip around the local market to collect the igrediants before heading back to the private and characterfull residence for the class and meal. José spoke good English, communicated well and helped us understand not just the how but also the why as we made Ceviche, Salsa Martajada, Guacamole, Taco placero and Enchiladas, all so tastly and flavorful. Well worth spending time.
We had a really amazing experience cooking with Jose. He walked us to the market and guided us on what to pick out for the meal we cooked later. He was patient and informative on what we were doing and how we were doing it. His lessons will last my partner and I a lifetime. A really phenomenal experience and can’t wait to take these new skills back home. 10/10
Very fun. Learned new recipes they we still used. The kitchen was well equipped and the chef patient. Highly recommended.
Loved the market tour and cooking in a local apartment. The food was delicious and do-able and the setting was comfortable. Highly recommend!
Thank you so much for your kind words! It was a pleasure sharing our local market, home, and recipes with you. We're so happy you enjoyed the experience and found the dishes both delicious and approachable to recreate. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back to Mexico City for another culinary adventure in the future!
José was wonderful. There were just three of us, which was perfect. The market was a blast and he took the time to show us how to choose the perfect ingredients for all the food and answer our many questions about peppers and mamey! The house we used to cook in was gorgeous. José was patient and had us all working on 5 different dishes! We would highly recommend!
Dear Diane, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed exploring the market, learning about ingredients like peppers and mamey, and cooking together in our home. José will be especially happy to know that you appreciated his guidance and patience throughout the class. Sharing the stories behind our ingredients and traditions is one of our favorite parts of the experience. Thank you for your recommendation, and we hope to welcome you back.
10 out 10 experience cooking with a local chef, using freah ingredients hand Lu Jed by you from local vendors. A must do if you’re a foodie and want a hands on experience.
This was an AWESOME experience. Everything about it was just great. We went to the market to pick up the food which was fun! Making the food was great. Jose made sure everyone was involved and we learned so much! The food was excellent and he made sure at the beginning that there were not food allergies and checked everyone preferences to make sure to adjust the meal as needed. 10/10 would recommend!
Jose was great! The market was close by and the food we made was delicious. I have never tasted Mexican food so good. Highly recommend.
This was a wonderful experience. Starting with a trip to the market to buy groceries, we learned to select the freshest fruit and vegetables. Upon returning to the kitchen, we followed easy to understand instructions from an experienced chef. We created our entrées and starters from scratch - all were delicious. These were "hands on" instructions and were taylored for our level of experience in the kitchen. Following the class, we received the recipes via email. I learned so much in this class and am confident in my ability to recreate the dishes. It was a fantastic experience - Chef Jose was engaging and fun to learn from. I highly recommend this class. It was definitely worth the price.
Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We're delighted you enjoyed every part of the experience, from the market visit to cooking everything from scratch. It was a pleasure sharing our kitchen with you, and we're so happy to hear you feel confident recreating the recipes at home. We truly appreciate your recommendation!
The cooking class was amazing. The tour at the start was a nice introduction and to see how locals shop. The class itself is something that we won't forget. Jose had patience and a way of making it all seem so easy. As for the food, it was devine. Could not fault it. Would highly recommend
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled you enjoyed the market visit, the cooking class, and of course the food. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to cook with you again someday!
