This was such a fun and informative class! What I liked best was finding out how simple many of the dishes are that had intimidated me in the past. I definitely can make these at home, knowing what I need to do to plan ahead. Claudia and Lorenzo were charming and gracious and I wish them the best of luck!... More

The class was welcoming, informative and fun. Lorenzo was an excellent host and Chef Claudia an excellent teacher. They were happy to accommodate me, the only vegetarian in the group, alongside the standard Yucatan menu and I believe I can adapt most of the recipes that were provided. The little onsite ship has a small,, quality selection.

This is my second time with Claudia and Lorenzo and I hope to have a third and fourth! The menu was different (Northern Mexico vs earlier Yucatan/QR). You may not use a lot of the teachings, but I've added in a little bit from both visits to my home cooking. All are doable at home, and it's a fun outing.... More

I found out about this cooking excursion on my trip to Cancun last year, but missed it. This year it was my priority and I was not disappointed! Claudia and Lorenzo are the ultimate hosts by opening up their home for us to enjoy not only the cooking of Mexico, but to learn about Mexican culture. I had a wonderful... More

Claudia and Lorenzo have created a comfortable, informational and FUN experience. We started our day with breakfast on the patio and everyone sharing a bit about themselves. Then progressed to learning about Mexico in a spacious and lovely cooking area. Everyone contributed to the actual prep of our grand finale meal. Fast forward (and, the day sped by quickly) we...

Chef Claudia is informative, pleasant, and above all an excellent cook and teacher.

This was our second time to go to cooking classes with Claudia and her husband Lorenzo. A lovely home, very fun and interesting. I came home with lots of new dinner ideas and the food is authentic, and fresh. What a feast we had that day too eating everything! Lovely time. We will definitely go again!

Chef Claudia and her husband make this a real hands on -not commercial--experience and knowledge of authentic Mayan/Mexican cooking in her beautiful home. We learned about culture as well as cuisine..as part of this experience the couple leaves you with a CD full of photos and recipes (you didn't learn in class) and an apron...this was completely worth the money...

Starting with a warm welcome from Lorenzo and ending with a great meal, this day was a delight from start to finish. I really LEARNED a lot about beautiful Mexico as well as wonderful cooking tips and instructions. Chef Claudia is amazing and a wealth of knowledge mixed with humor and education. The hands on was just another tool to... More
