Fun & Informative
Amy_G, Jul 2019
My son and I took this salsa making class last week on our trip to CDMX and it was one of our favorite activities we did. Graciela's kitchen was so lovely, warm, and inviting. It was fun to meet other travelers and residents who share the same interests. We walked around the neighborhood to check out how tortillas were made in different types of shops, ate a delicious street taco, and then went to the market to learn about the relation of food to Mexican history, chiles, corn, etc. My son and I even tried chicatanas and found that they were actually tasty. Then we went back to the kitchen and we all worked together to make 10 different salsas. I learned how to clean a chile and tomato and have already made 3 of the salsas back home. After all the work, we sat down to a beautiful table and enjoyed the salsas on the kinds of foods they pair best with. I think I had a smile on my face from start to finish; my son and I had a great time together. I am confident I can make any of the salsas from the recipes we left with. If you are considering taking a cooking class, this is the one to start with. Absolutely worth the time and money!
Enjoyable experience

Two of us took the salsa cooking class recently and very much enjoyed the experience. The class was very well put together, the meal served was very good and the journey & time spent in the market close by was very informative. I would very much recommend this class.
