Fantastic!!!! - Manuel was an incredible host and his food was superb. We were a group of 4 from Toronto, Canada. Highly recommend visiting Manuel’s lovely home, it was the highlight of our vacation and a unique experience. Can’t wait to try and recreate his recipes. Meeting his super friendly and adorable dog Max was also an added bonus! His house is really close to the hotel zone so a quick cab ride or Uber

An incredible 10/10 experience - One of our favorite experiences in Puerto Vallarta. Chef Manuel is a great instructor and creates some incredible dishes for you to enjoy with local ingredients. He’s very knowledgeable about food and explains a lot about how the different ingredients create balance and flavor. I highly recommend everyone enjoy this experience while in PV, both locals and travelors.

A REAL Mexican meal! - A great immersion into the culture here in PV! A fun market experience, with Manu asking us plenty of questions so we could have a fabulous meal. An intimate visit to his home while we were the only guests! He is friendly, instructive, and a great chef! We had a wonderful time.
