Minerva Lopez is a traditional cook from Oaxaca with over 40 years of experience in pre-Hispanic and traditional cooking.

Guests are invited to spend a day at her home, with her family and culture, offering an authentic experience where they will learn to cook as she did, just like with mom! The groups are small, ensuring an intimate, family-like experience.

The market visited is the largest in Oaxaca and is not touristy, where locals purchase fresh and organic ingredients, allowing the menu to be adapted to individual tastes. There are options for vegans, vegetarians, and meat lovers.

Located away from the city in a small town, the outdoor wood stove is the perfect place to cook. Everything consumed is prepared at home.

This is more than just a class; it is a unique experience of flavors and knowledge.
