During this immersive cooking class, you’ll help prepare 2 to 3 traditional Mexican dishes before sitting down to enjoy the meal together. Dishes may include handmade sopes, quesadillas with zucchini flowers, fresh salsas, guacamole, chiles en nogada, finished with classic desserts like tres leches cake or flan. Enjoy your meal in their serene garden, paired with local beer or tequila. Menus can be tailored to your preferences upon request.

If you choose the market tour option, Mariana and Geraldine will guide you through the lively Melchor Múzquiz neighborhood market, just a short walk from their home. Spend 30 to 45 minutes exploring stalls filled with fresh produce, meats, spices, chiles, flowers, and prepared foods while learning about the ingredients that define Mexican cuisine.
