This was the second time we have booked a cooking class with Manuel. We brought friends along so we had a party of 4. A brief chat about our likes and dislikes was followed by an introduction to the local market where we bought Parrot-Fish, Steak and fresh vegetables for the Ceviche and Volcan Crispy Tortillas that were to follow. Manuel is a sociable host, and we met Max his lovely dog, and sat drinking wine, chatting about food and watching a chef at work. The food was incredibly tasty - with a couple of salsas for us to complement the food. I really enjoyed the Ceiche and the Steak/Cheese mix on the Volcan was very tasty. A great experience and a wonderful morning had by all. Top Notch. Highly Recommended.
We arrived early, not knowing how long it would take to get from the Malecon to the cooking class and she was ready for us. She was very welcoming, friendly, and her home is lovely. We made guacamole, and it was exactly the same way. I made it at home, so of course I liked it. Then we made a chocolate avocado mousse, which I never had before, and I will definitely have again. That was followed by chicken enchiladas, which were very simple that were very delicious. We were served a Palermo upon arrival which my husband loved more than I did, but I don’t like 7-Up. And she had a lovely glass of either white or red wine for us while we waited for the enchiladas to cook. Her new puppy Howie was adorable and he entertained his while we waited for the enchiladas to cook. Overall, it was a lovely experience, and I would highly recommend it.
