Mexican authentic food - Excelente! The food and the experience of learning about the food and their culture.The food was prepared at the moment fresh. We made the Salsa dip, and delicious empanadas. The host was very friendly and thought us how to prepare everything. We can’t wait to try it ourselves at home. Thank you! 👍👍👍

Delightful! - Awesome experience and amazing food. We learned a lot, and every dish was excellent. It was also cool to take the class in Guadalupe’s home (they have lots of kitties!)

10/10 would recommend! Cant say enough good things about this experience. - The was by far one of our FAVORITE experiences while in Playa Del Carmen/Tulum. Everything about the experience was amazing. Lilly definitely has a passion for cooking and is shows! She even threw in some dancing lessons in-between cooking! She made everything fun and we loved her energy. We cooked, laughed, danced, drank Mezcal all while learning about the history of the food. Don't pass up on this authentic experience!

Authentic & Soulful + Heartfelt deliciousness! - This is one of the best cooking classes that I have ever had! Lily commands the energy of the room, while also fostering a very fun and interactive environment where everyone is like a big family. We learned how to make homemade corn tortillas from scratch, al pastor, chaya and other fresh ingredients for our soup, and quesadillas! The mezcal and horchata that we tasted was also phenomenal! Lily is the real deal! I am thankful to have made these amazing memories + learned new techniques! Cheers!

Awesome experience - It was so much fun! I loved learning how to make tortillas from scratch. The watermelon agua fresca was delicious! We did not get the mezcal tasting on our visit but that’s ok as we are not big drinkers. I absolutely would recommend this visit. Plus she has quite a few animals and they are all so sweet!!
