Overview

This four-hour Mexican cooking class takes place in Puerto Vallarta and begins with a guided tour of a local market. Participants meet the professional chef, who explains Mexican cooking traditions and the ingredients used. Next, the group visits a nearby tortilla factory to purchase fresh dough for making tortillas. Transportation is provided from the market to the chef’s home in Puerto Vallarta, where the cooking class continues. The daily menu varies: Monday features street-style pork tacos with salsas and guacamole; Tuesday includes chocolate mole, Mexican rice, and poblano cream soup made from scratch; Wednesday offers seafood dishes such as ceviche, shrimp, or grilled octopus; Thursday focuses on tamales and chiles rellenos with salsas and guacamole; and Friday highlights Jalisco specialties like birria in adobo sauce and sopes. During the class, participants learn to prepare salsa de molcajete and dessert, as well as take a lesson in making margarita cocktails. After cooking, guests share the meal in a relaxed home setting. Purified water and lunch are included. Transportation is only provided from the market to the chef’s house; at the end, participants arrange their own taxi or rideshare back to their accommodations. The class can accommodate dietary restrictions including vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, and dairy-free options.
