Auténtica clase de cocina de San Miguel de Allende en un hermoso hogar
Descripción
Visite una casa local en San Miguel de Allende para aprender el arte de la cocina mexicana prehispánica de la mano de Isabel, una abuela mexicana cálida, dinámica y encantadora (y ex pediatra) a quien le encanta trabajar en el jardín y cocinar. Isabel ofrece una lección privada, auténtica y práctica de cocina mexicana en su casa y jardín que ella misma diseñó. Isabel es increíblemente apasionada por la cocina prehispánica: además de aprender sobre la cultura y la cocina, aprenderá sobre la antigua técnica agrícola de la milpa (también conocida como el método de las tres hermanas para cultivar alimentos). Los vegetarianos son bienvenidos, solo avisa a Isabel con antelación. Isabel tiene buenos recuerdos de estar en la cocina con su madre quien le enseñó a cocinar en parrillas y molcajetes de barro prehispánicos. Está emocionada de crear nuevos recuerdos gastronómicos con sus invitados.

A WONDERFUL experience. Isabel picked us up from our rental right on time and was an expert driver to her beautiful home a few miles outside town. She led us through the cooking class, starting with ingredients and the history behind them. We then proceeded to cook a beautiful and delicious meal together which we all shared around her dining table after a margarita lesson on her patio. A 5 star experience!! Definitely book this amazing class!
Isabel and her sister shared a fun afternoon with us in her home outside San Miguel. After picking us up at out lodging in town we learning about heritage foods of Mexico and how to prepare them. After the cooking and prep we had a great lunch!
Isabel, Rick and Michelle were all so great. The food was delicious and she was so great and showing us techniques as well as talking us through the recipes. It was such a fun time cooking and eating with them. Thank you for welcoming us into your home.
This was a highlight of our trip to San Miguel. Isabel is an interesting and engaging person. She accommodated our need for a vegetarian meal perfectly. Isabel shared the history of the foods we cooked with and we made a lovely meal. Her home and gardens are so peaceful after the hustle and bustle of San Miguel. A few tips: Isabel lives out of town so be sure and arrange transportation with her ahead of time. The event was about 4 hours total and so worth the time.
We had such a wonderful time with Isabela and her family. She picked us up and drove us about 30 minutes to her beautiful house in the country outside SMA which features an impressive garden and lovely grounds. The cooking experience was great fun: she’s a knowledgeable and patient teacher and we enjoyed learning and the hands-on experience of cooking with her. The food was wonderful and we truly loved it and the experience of dining with her family. Would highly recommend.
What a wonderful Valentine's day! My husband and I went to Isabel's home to cook and have a splendid lunch! Isabel is so welcoming, passionate about cooking and teaching and down to earth. She educated us about the foods of Mexican ancestors going back hundreds of years. We prepared a 4 course lunch with some ingredients that we were not familiar with, which was great. Our lunch was delightful and delicious. Everything we used was fresh and colorful, and we thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience. We highly recommend this experience!
Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful review. We are delighted that you chose to spend Valentine’s Day cooking with Isabel and that it became such a memorable and meaningful experience for you both. Isabel will be so happy to hear how much you appreciated her warmth, her passion for teaching, and the way she brings the history of Mexican cuisine to life. Exploring ingredients that are new and rooted in centuries of tradition is such a special way to connect with the culture, and we are thrilled that the four course lunch was both delightful and delicious. Thank you for your wholehearted recommendation. We are so grateful you celebrated with Traveling Spoon and hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable experience in the future.
This was really, truly, an awesomely unique experience and I very highly recommend it. Isabel picked us up, as well as drove us back, and that was such a bonus. She was on time, and a good driver. At her lovely home outside the city, she had everything prepped that needed to be prepped. She began with a short history of Mexican food and then we began to put the meal together. We started by making a tomatillo appetizer. Simple, but very tasty, with ricotta, tomatillos, serrano chile, cilantro, and salt, then tortilla soup, green sauce, and the main dish of nopal tlacoyos with puebla stye chicken. This had layers of refried black beans, pulled chicken, onions, sauce, shredded lettuce and sour cream on a cactus leaf. Yes, you eat the cactus leaf. It's OK! it tastes a lot like a green pepper. Yes, we made all this by ourselves under Isabel's gracious supervision. Although we didn't make a dessert, Isabel provided nuts, candied peaches, and some sweet square items. Her kitchen and premises are safe, and all the cooking items you need are there and ready to go. She has four very friendly dogs, and one very friendly husband, Rick, who returned from an appointment in time to have lunch with us. I have to admit, when I saw the prepped ingredients, I wasn't sure I'd like the result, but after putting everything together, I couldn't believe how good it was! I would do this activity again! Fun with comfortable surroundings. Isabel's English is good, and we wore aprons, washed our hands as needed, and stayed clean in a clean environment.
Had a lovely time cooking with Isabel. We made a delicious traditional Mexican dinner at her beautiful country home. We felt very welcomed. The food was delicious.
What a beautiful experience to get picked up in town and shuttled out to Isabel's private home for a delicious meal. We enjoyed our experience because Isabel is so charming and knowledgeable about what she is making. We would recommend the experience to anyone who enjoys a good meal with friendly hosts.
Thank you so much for this wonderful review. We are delighted to hear that your visit with Isabel was such a memorable part of your trip. Being welcomed into her private home is truly something special, and it is lovely to know that her warmth, charm, and deep knowledge of her cuisine made the experience even more enjoyable. We are grateful for your recommendation and so glad the meal and hospitality left such a great impression. We hope we have the chance to host you again on another Traveling Spoon experience in the future.
This was a fantastic experience! Isabel is incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. She guided us through preparing a delicious vegetarian meal and provided transportation from/to our lodging. Isabel’s home is beautiful and we even got to spend some time with her adorable dog Nacho. This was truly a highlight of our trip to SMA. Highly recommend.

She loves creating warm and welcoming experiences for her guests and it is wonderful to know that her guidance, hospitality, and delicious vegetarian menu all made an impression. It sounds like the added touches, including the ride from your lodging and a visit with little Nacho, helped make the day even more memorable. We are grateful you chose to spend part of your trip with one of our hosts and even more grateful that it became a highlight. Thank you again for the kind words and recommendation.
