Our Exceptional cooking class with Chef David… - Our cooking class with Chef David Jahnke was amazing! Several of us have had other cooking classes, and this was probably the best we’ve had. It’s in his home with his wife helping. He went into the “why” of what ingredients he uses and tried to weave the authentic Mexican heritage into all he did. His instructions and explanations were fascinating. He was well paced, well prepared, and engaging. In addition to his outstanding culinary expertise, he was able to enhance our experience with nutritional knowledge. Our food was delicious! This excursion was enjoyed by everyone!

A "Not-To-Miss" Cooking Class - Chef David hosted us on the most interesting (and delicious) cooking classes we have ever taken...and we have taken several around the world. His knowledge, presentation, and gracious hospitality were all superb. This is a "must take" class for anyone interested in learning more about the preparation of "true" Mexican cuisine.

This class is a "must do" when in San Miguel de Allende! - This was my favorite experience in San Miguel de Allende! Chef David is extremely knowledgeable in every area related to nutrition and cooking, regularly shares tips and history, is personable, is accommodating and well worth the time spent with him. Plus, the food we made was delicious! So, you learn some cooking tips, get to try for different dishes, and you're definitely full when you leave. I highly recommend this class!

Once was not enough! - Wonderful class. Even though I went with 2 friends who are far more trained than I, we all learned something. David's approach is educational but fun. You appreciate how Mexican cuisine really evolved and where different things come from. When it comes to the cooking, we did just enough to feel a part of it, but we particularly enjoyed the eating! I feel like I could do another of his classes and it would remain pretty fresh. Great value for the price and highly recommend.

Sensational! - David classes and services are not 5 star they are 100!
His knowledge about food as a whole including cooking, growing and history of it in vast like Mexico! It's a professional class not random cooking. I leaned so much about the food I love, how to make it and many techniques and tips I can use in my home cooking. He is amazing warm and kind person who love to share his knowledge with you. I took four of his classes. Cutting and cooking techniques tidy up my random knowledge. Market tour was sensational with all local ingredients you will use later in a class, herbs and spices etc. David know the history of every food he cook and also about the town . My pre Spanish classes are tomorrow where I will learn a true Mexican way of making and cooking their food. And last will be current Mexican style class. David can teach you cook anything in your dietary requirements! I'm vegan and gf and I'm in absolutely cooking heaven!

Private cooking class in SMA - We had a culturally enriching experience with Chef David in SMA - we were a group of 8 including children.
He was engaging and instructive. He tailored some of the recipes
For the vegetarians in our group.
While we learned cooking techniques and recipes for Mexican cuisine, we also learned about Mexican history .
Overall, this was a highlight of our trip , and we would recommend Chef David’s cooking class to anyone visiting SMA! We cannot wait to make his dishes back home ( he shares his recipes)!

Greatly enjoyed Chef David’s class! - Chef David was incredibly knowledgeable about the history and evolution of Mexican cooking, the traditional tools used in home
Cooking and indigenous ingredients. We enjoyed each dish we made and am excited to try to create these dishes at home.
