We are always vegetarian, vegan or gluten-free friendly if that is an interest. We will discuss the history and cultural importance of the Mole and how it used to be the “Food of the Emperors”, reserved only for the upper class of the Mayan and Aztec society. During the lesson you will be enticed to explore your environment: the cozy den with its fireplace and library; and the surrounding courtyard with its organic gardens and gorgeous landscapes. Having prepared the delicious meal, we will sit down and dine, engaging in wonderful conversation.

Chef Miguel is wonderful!...

Published on Nov, 2024

Chef Miguel is wonderful! Made this the best experience we did in SMA. He's prepared, knowledgeable, warm and fun--and the venue worked perfectly. A terrific way to learn more about the culture, enjoy some new tastes of the cuisine and take home some new tips.

Absolutely Incredible

Published on Nov, 2024

This experience was one of the best moments of our trip. Our cooking instructor, Miguel, made the experience better than we could have imagined. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and created a relaxing environment to cook. Highly recommend.

So good I wonder if I can fly Miguel up to cook for a holiday party

Published on Oct, 2024

What a wonderful finale to our time in San Miguel. An absolutely lovely setting, the food was fantastic, Miguel was a terrific teacher and chef. I have taken a lot of cooking classes and I think this might be the best one ever. Thanks Chef Miguel!

Highly recommend Chef Miguel's Mole and Salsa class!

Published on Oct, 2024

We had a great time learning to make 2 salsa, one rice dish and amazing mole sauce! Chef Miguel was very knowledgeable as well as entertaining. We booked this fun experience for our wedding anniversary and it turned out...another couple were celebrating their anniversary also! So, we had champagne and red wine! Great time had by all and a wonderful meal that we just created! Thank you Chef Miguel!

The Joy and Love of Mexican Cooking

Published on Sep, 2024

Chef Miguel was fantastic! He really enjoys teaching the joys of cooking authentic Mexican food. The setting is beautiful (one minute you're on a busy cobble stoned street, and the next - once behind the walls - you're in this tranquil courtyard and home), and Miguel's passion for cooking (using his Abuela's recipes, of course) comes through from the moment he introduces himself. I could not recommend this experience more highly!
