Discover the secrets of colonial Mexican gastronomy, learn the cooking techniques used back then, and prepare a 4 course meal using traditional recipes in this step by step class taught by a professional chef.  Share the wonderful aromas and exquisite flavors of a one of a kind experience you won’t find anywhere else.

Mexican food is popular all around the world, but few people know that it comes from the fusion of Prehispanic and Spanish cuisine.  Many of the most famous Mexican recipes today were developed during the colonial period all across Mexico.

The city of Puebla is a great example of this long tradition of colonial food as many of its gastronomical specialties were born from this combination of indigenous and European recipes.

In this colonial cooking class centered on food from Puebla you will learn historical concepts and a variety of recipes that will make up a full menu divided into 4 courses and 1 beverage, all made with ingredients obtained from local producers from an agricultural area located next to the Popocatepetl volcano.

Your experience will take place in the kitchen of a local chef located a few blocks from the famous Pyramid of Cholula and the historical center of San Pedro Cholula.  After preparing and enjoying the meal as a group, everyone will help to clean up the work area.

The class includes all the materials and ingredients necessary to prepare the recipes.

Duration: 4 hrs. depending on the group size.

Meeting spot: Once your booking is confirmed you will receive an email with details about the class, including the address where the class will take place and a map with the exact location.
