Not to be Missed! - We enjoyed a fantastic day at the Mexico Lindo Cooking School! The food was delicious! The eco-garden was amazing, and the hands-on chopping and cooking was fun and informative. They are very sensitive and resourceful regarding food allergies/dietary restrictions. Highly recommend you include this in your trip to Cancun, Playa del Carmen or Puerto Morelos. It's a very special experience.

Exceptional in every way possible! - Alejandra was such an entertaining and skillful chef and cooking instructor. We were hands on and learned Yucatán recipes and techniques…the food was absolutely delicious! I highly recommend this experience. She has “set the bar” for me to find another cooking class to compare.

Great food and fun time - 6 different dishes plus salas. All are wonderful. The place is a little hard to find. It is very beautiful place with natural herbal garden.

Work Excursion Didn’t Disappoint! - This class was awesome! The chef and the staff treated us first class. The food was made by the class, with heavy instruction. The tamales were amazing and all the food was delicious. I would do it again and try one of their personal/half day classes.

Mexico Lindo Cooking Experience was wonderful! - We thoroughly enjoyed learning about what we were cooking, the regions the recipes came from and making the most delicious food. Loved taking the recipes home so that I can recreate the dishes myself and enjoy them all over again.

Rainy day or sunny day, this experience is a must-do - We were fortunate to book this excursion on a rainy day in paradise. It was outstanding. The chef was knowledgeable and the food we prepared was absolutely delicious! The setting back in the lush greenery made it a really unique destination to enjoy. I would highly recommend this if you want to learn how to prepare some authentic Mayan recipes that you can recreate at home.
