What to expect

Become a master of Mexico’s most iconic dish with this multi-variety mole cooking class.

At the beautiful Condesa home of your knowledgeable guide, explore the extraordinary diversity of Mexican moles before donning an apron and preparing two of the dish’s most delectable iterations from scratch.

Around two hours later, set the table with beautiful, locally-made dinnerware and enjoy a decadent manchamanteles, which has similar ingredients and processes to world-famous mole poblano but draws sweetness from generous chunks of pineapple and plantain instead of chocolate, and an uplifting green mole, with a base of crisp green spinach, cilantro, parsley and epazote that will be a refreshing change from the heavier moles you’ve tried before.

Most dietary requirements can be accommodated. Wheelchair users have attended the class before, but the building doesn't have an elevator. Allergy sufferers should know that there are two cats in the house. Travelers taking their class on the rooftop of the art gallery must check their inbox after booking for details of the location. Guests should be aware that others may pay less for the same experience by booking via the Martaja website.
