More than a cooking class! - Wow! This was an incredible experience that goes beyond just cooking. Enrique and Chef Adhey are so warm, welcoming and thoughtful. Instead of a cooking class this felt like going over to a very good friend’s house for a dinner party. I love cooking and that’s why I booked this class, but my wife who couldn’t care less about cooking can’t stop raving about it, even days later. We’ve booked several experiences in Oaxaca and this one is our favorite by far. Do yourself a favor and book this for yourself, you won’t regret it.

A Fabulous & Delicious Outing - Four hours of great fun, delicious food we helped to make, learning tips to improve my novice Mexican cooking skills. On top of that we have a host of tips for local vendors & restaurants. Really, we would go back again just for the fun and the food. Gracias Chef Adhey y Quique

The highlight of our trip - Wow! What an amazing experience 🙌🏼 Probably the best activity we’ve booked the entire week in Oaxaca! Adella is an amazing chef and takes time to explain the meaning and passion behind every meal. The environment is beginner friendly AND perfect for learning something new. They really treat you like family and we left rich with full bellies and new friends!
