Amazing Cooking Class in SMA! - We had the most incredible experience at David Jahnke’s cooking class and I would highly recommend it to anybody interested not only in cooking, but in Mexican food culture. David is extremely well trained and has a wealth of knowledge and experience. He spent the first half hour or so of our class telling us about the various foods we would be eating, their origin, history of Mexico, etc. It was a fascinating history lesson. We then moved on to the recipes. We chose some complicated dishes with multiple ingredients, and he was meticulous in explaining the ingredients, their origin, their nutritional value, etc. The instructions he gave in the demonstrations were very thoroughly done and this was a true hands-on experience. We were put to work in the kitchen, which is exactly what we wanted. We then were able to taste what we prepared one dish at a time, and we were amazed by the flavors as well as the subtlety of some of the dishes. We have been to multiple cooking classes, all around the world, and have attended weeklong cooking classes, but nothing matched the experience and the education we received in our session with David. My only regret is that we are not here longer to take more classes from him, as he offers a variety of experiences.

Awesome cooking class! - Chef Jahnke is simply amazing. We have participated in cooking classes in a number of countries and this was the best one we have ever attended. Chef Jahnke is a living encyclopedia on various cuisines and the history of food preparation. He explained in detail about all of the ingredients that were going into our dishes, about how the food preparation process changed the chemistry of various foods and, obviously, how to make the dishes. If I had known how wonderful this experience was going to be, I would have signed up for several classes. If we ever come back to San Miguel, I know one thing we will be doing! Thank you chef!

Fabulous food and culture experience - A fabulous experience start to finish. Chef David taught so much about ingredients native to Mexico and the Americas. The dishes were chosen to meet our preferences. With his careful instructions and encouragement, we finished with an incredible 3 course meal!

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!
