Inside the class

One long table, everyone hands-on, and it always ends the same way — eating what you just made, together. Scenes from recent sessions:

With Chef Ernesto

An interactive session on one of Mexico’s most ancient and cherished culinary rituals. Masa spread by hand, filled, folded and steamed — then eaten together at the table. The same chef led the August class.

The Mexican Salsas Masterclass

With Chef Carlos Ortiz
