Mayan cooking class - We had a great time learning how to make Papian. I chose this dish as my family had ordered it a few times at various restaurants in Guatemala. We also learned how to make the best black beans. Chef and his family were very kind and welcoming. Would recommend this activity for those who are interested in learning how to make Mayan dishes.

Best birthday treat. - I booked a morning private cooking experience where I got picked up from my hotel on my birthday, taken to the local market to buy fresh produce and taken to the location to continue our process. We did a 3 course meal which was honestly so delicious and I would recommend everyone to try it. 10/10 would recommend.

Fun cooking class - This was a fun class. We enjoyed visiting the market, comparing cuisines. The chef was fun to talk with, very generous with his time. Food was delicious. The only thing missing is the printed recipe. Hopefully he will send it to us as he said he would
