This tour offers an authentic immersion in Mexico City's everyday, non-touristy surroundings, guided by a host who combines traditional culinary expertise with stagecraft.
This fusion of neighborhood culture, grandma's cooking, and theatrical storytelling transforms the experience into something more than a cooking class: it's an act of living, emotional, and participatory hospitality.
In summary:
You don't just cook, you step into a real home, walk around the neighborhood, hear stories, and play Mexican Lottery—just like you're part of the family.
This level of intimacy and emotional authenticity, far removed from the tourist-friendly scenarios, is what most distinguishes Tasty Mi Barrio.
What's Included
Meeting and pickup
Meeting point at the corner of Eje Central and Dr. Arce, at the exit of Metro Obrera (Line 8). I'll be wearing a bright blue dress, colorful long tights with Mexican food designs, colorful sneakers, and a large bag with a heart embroidery. Always smiling and ready to welcome you.
It concludes at Antonio Solis 40, where you'll find the kitchen where you'll learn and experience the flavors of the neighborhood. From here you can order your Uber back to your accommodation.
