Chef Oswaldo was amazing! He is very knowledgeable and patient in explaining the importance of all of the ingredients for each recipe. It was clear how much he cares about the culture connected to the food. Great experience!
Incredible experience. The chef Oswaldo was brilliant. He walked us through making some salsa, some tamales, some mole, and some memelas. It was a great mix of everything. He even offered us beverages while we cooked. The food we cooked was some of the nicest we had on Oaxaca. I would recommend this to anyone. 10/10
Cooking with Oswaldo was so much fun! He explained things really well, shared his cultural and culinary expertise, and encouraged us to take lead and be very hands on. It was a really spacious outdoor cooking setting with a beautiful long table to enjoy dinner together afterwards. His expertise and educational background are impressive and he even published a cookbook on breads of Oaxaca! The multi course dinner menu was well planned and we all got to try a variety of traditional, delicious foods. Highly recommend this wonderful experience!
One of my favorite experiences in Mexico. Chef Oswaldo teaches you delicious and traditional dishes in a very cozy and organized outdoor setting, he gives you recommendations and you can tell his affection for Oaxacan cuisine and its culture. I would recommend not eating breakfast beforehand since they welcome you with a delicious chocolate with bread.
Chef Oswaldo led a very informative and approachable class including a variety of Oaxacan dishes and relaxed atmosphere. All of the food was as delicious as the company was welcoming.
Incredible experience! The food was diverse and Chef Oswaldo did an amazing job keeping you busy and explaining everything as we went along. The class size was perfect and the setting and space was very cute and functional.
Amazing experience. Oswaldo is a very experienced chef and an enthousiastic teacher, who is also very knowledgeable. You’ll get to cook your own three course dinner that showcases very different—though all delicious—dishes, which you can all make at home. In my opinion: a must do when in Oaxaca!
Worth every peso! Ozwaldo was an excellent guide and educated us on the wonders of Oaxacan food. Come hungry, ready to cook and learn
Very enjoyable experience, not too long, very informative, not too difficult but definitely felt like we were cooking our own food and the food was amazing!
Excellent experience! It was our first cooking class, and we can highly recommend it. Oswaldo creates a very relaxed and stress-free atmosphere while teaching us a lot about Oaxacan cuisine and how to prepare it, also letting us try different tools used in the area. And the food was absolutely excellent!
Thank you so much for these kind words! We're delighted this was your first cooking class experience and that Comments like this mean a lot to us!
