Traditional Mexican Cuisine Cooking Class - Our day with Noemi began with a tour in her neighborhood on our way to the market. We had breakfast at one of the cafes (including fantastic coffee), before shopping for our class. It was informative and fun, to be with Noemi as she made her way through the bustling market selecting items for her recipes.
Back at the kitchen, she instructed us in the art of preparing several Mexican dishes, including mole, her family recipe,
while explaining the history of this vibrant cuisine.
A wonderful day.

A treat!! - Highly recommend this class!! What a treat to spend the day with Noémi; she taught us how to pick fruit and veg at the market, and then showed us how to cook a delicious Mexican meal. Not only did she share a ton of interesting information with us but she was also a fun person to be around :). On the way to the market she shared a lot of history about the area a well. Muchas gracias Noémi for your hospitality and for sharing your knowledge! ¡Nos vemos!

Fun, informative and delicious! - Noemi was super personable, knowledgable and a lot of fun. We enjoyed the historical info and the market tour. She knew all the vendors and we for sure got the best vegies and meats.
She guided us through making our drinks and lunch, laced with stories and laughs! We'd recommend Noemi and this cooking class to anyone.

Highly recommended with excellent chef who shares her family recipes. - We had a great day walking a few blocks, having a breakfast together in the market, learning how to pick the best produce, and making some tequila drinks (optional) and then making some great vegetarian/vegan sopes! It was a wonderful day.

Fabulous cooking by a sensational teacher. - Wow what a fantastic day we had with Noemi. First we went to the markets to buy fresh ingredients. At the Markets we were served breakfast and freshly squeezed orange juice.
We then went to an amazing cafe where Noemi had her kitchen out the back.
We started then to prepare our Tequila drink. We juiced the oranges, grape fruit and limes we had bought at the markets and were shown how to make this most amazing tequila drink called Tequila Jarritos.
We then proceeded to make fresh Tortillas and a fabulous soup. We made the most sensational fresh Salsa.
After cooking we ate and drank what we had made.
We learnt heaps. Had the best teacher and a had a sensational day.
