Traditional Oaxaca cooking class with transportation
Overview
I will teach you how to choose good ingredients or even how to substitute them for the ones you like.
If you are vegetarian or vegan, Oaxacan cuisine has more than one option for you, since meatless dishes are part of our culture and I can adapt to your needs.
Currently I have received more than 500 travelers from all over the world in my kitchen, and this is a new channel for you to come to know the authentic traditional cuisine.
Come with an open mind and ready to learn to cook and make new friends.

What to expect
The mole, tamale or dish that you choose to prepare will be the one that you will carry in your heart and you will learn how to do it from the beginning to the end.

The food was fabulous and I learned a lot about authentic Oaxacan cooking. The highlight was Mimi and her son, Charlie. They welcomed us into their home as if we were family. Mimi is incredibly warm and genuine. She was able to wrangle a dozen guests and guide us while we prepared multiple dishes. Did I mention the food was fantastic? If you can only do one thing while you're in Oaxaca, take Mimi's cooking class.This class absolutely made our trip to Mexico one of the most memorable ones. Mimi was so warm and attentive to each of the students and her dishes where soooo good! I highly recommend you come and take the class, even if your Mexican like me and travel to Mexico often.
