Fun, informative, delicious! - If you’re looking for an interactive and fun way to learn a bit about Mexican culture & food, this experience is the one for you! A great afternoon, not too intensive cooking but enough to get involved & sit back to enjoy the food! The hostess and her family were extremely friendly, we felt like family when we walked in!

Dinner at Abuela’s how. - Talk about mi casa is su casa. We all left with a Mexican Abuelo. So sweet, funny, and witty. She was more than we expected and we got an education in not just cooking but how food feeds our souls, and how important cooking can be for relationships that matter.

So much fun, a must try experience in Tulum - My wife and I had so much fun. We are in our late 20s and shared dinner with another young couple which was great. Lily is so nice, full of energy and knowledge. We are so glad that we did the class and would recommend it to anyone. I will add that I was slightly worried about how to get a taxi back to the beach after this (and other) experiences, and that was not an issue at all. The taxi already knew where to bring us and when to pick us up, and Lily coordinated with them as well to confirm. Everyone has been so nice in Tulum and always go out of their way to help and watch out for us.

Immersive and fun cultural experience - Lily was a gracious host and generous educator. It was so fun to be welcomed into her home with her pets and to make so many delicious dishes using local ingredients. I can’t wait to try them at home! We also learned a lot about the history and culture of the region. I am a vegetarian and Lily accommodated me so kindly. The whole experience was fantastic! I highly recommend.

Cocinando con mi amor! - I booked this class as a surprise anniversary gift for my husband. He is Mexican and loves cooking so it was the perfect experience for him to learn more about his culture and get some tips from Lupita. We absolutely loved the experience from the class, to the food, and the people we met! Mezcal tasting was fun and the entire class was an adventure! I am usually a really picky eater, but I tried every single thing on the menu and it was all very delicious and flavorful!
