Overview

Fresh ingredients, everything from scratch, flavors of our traditional Mexico; everything is set and carefully hand-picked for you to enjoy and live an authentic cultural and gastronomical immersion to the deepest traditions and roots of our ancient Mexican cuisine. Our gastro-cultural experience starts off with a brief introduction to the essential flavors and ingredients of Mexican cuisine at the market.

Then, in an ambiance full of joy, music and laughter, we will prepare a full menu with sides, salsa and agua fresca

The preparation of tortillas and quesadillas is from scratch, as well as quesadillas, for which we always use artisanal cheese.

By the end of the class, we sit down in one table to share the food we just prepared and the experience itself! Mi casa es tu casa, you are always welcome!
