This was a very good experience, very authentic. Eduardo did a very nice job of explaining everything to us in good detail, at the market and in the kitchen. I would definitely recommend this if you are interested in Mexican food in any way. I don't really cook a lot, but enjoyed the class and lesson in the food preparation.

I did a cooking class with this company, and I'm so glad the I ditched the pyramids to spend my time on this instead!
Everything about this company and the class is great. Starting with their office teams communication, to the market tour (you help with all the shopping which is super fun) and cooking class itself, through to the end where they take the time to get your feedback on the day.
I did my class with Eduardo (Lalo) who I would definitely ask for, as he's not only a great chef and teacher, but a really nice guy to spend a number of hours with.
Coming from a catering/hospitality background in Australia I cannot fault the time I took for this class in any way.
And not only did I learn about Mexican food, but a lot about the people and culture at the same time.

Do the class everyone! You won't regret it!

The tour guide was very unprofessional. Not only that she was late, she was on her smart phone text messaging all the time. Her knowledge of the subject was very rudimentary and willingness to show us the markets close to 0. We had to force her to go to the meat section of the market. It made her unhappy. We only had stopped at two stands one with cheese and the other with exotic food grasshoppers. Than we went for few tacos of barbacoa pulled pig and one old corn muffin. Finally she dropped was at the artisan market 100 meters away saying goodbye. No explanation, no introduction, no guidance. The scheduled at least 3 hours tour was cut to less than 2 hours. With her limited command of English and attention to in and out-going text messages I wonder if this could be a blessing. For everybody thinking to pay 60 per head for this tour simple advice. This is rip-off. Do it on your own for 10 and will see more, enjoy it better. All owners of the stands are very pleasant and will help you to taste and give explanation up to their best potential paying undivided attention to the client.

Food tour was good and informative. Your instructions said to be there 15 minutes early, but our guide was 5 minutes late. Then why be early? Overall we had a good time and enjoyed it.

The tour itself was excellent. I enjoyed talking to the people in the market and eating foods i had not eaten before. The market is beautiful and very clean and all of the vendors are friendly and happy to talk to you. My guide was friendly, fairly knowledgeable and did a good job. The price for the tour, however, is completely unjustified. 58 for 2 hours walking through the market compared with, for example 76 for 12 hour trip to Puebla just doesnt make sense. If you speak Spanish you could have the same experience four about 15 to 20 for the food.

It was a fun learning tour on food there. Not only did the tour guide speaks English very well, but he was also friendly, kind, and knowledgeable of interesting food. I enjoyed it a lot.
