We had such a fun evening in our cooking class with Tania Martinez! Our group of six (three couples) couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Tania was upbeat, knowledgeable, and made everyone feel comfortable. She even tailored parts of the class to fit our different tastes, which was such a nice touch. We cooked (and ate!) so much delicious food and learned a ton along the way. Definitely recommend booking a class—and if you can, ask for Tania! ❤️

One of the best activities!

The cooking class from start to finish was fantastic. Tania our chef and host was so kind, fun and knowledgeable. Our group met her at the supermarket, and we gathered all the ingredients. We went back to her house and began cooking and making margaritas. Our group consisted of one non-cook, to a few novice cooks, to a trained professional chef of 35 plus years. We all learned, laughed, and enjoyed the entire experience. I would highly recommend this activity, if you like to eat delicious food from the Yucatán.

Tania made the experience great

We loved our intimate meal-prep and dining with Tania, who knows cooking so well and has a great facility with those great Mexican dishes!

Cooking fun with friends

Did this cooking class with my mom and sisters to celebrate my Mom’s 80th birthday. We had SO much fun! Left completely full. Tania made it such a great experience from shopping for the ingredients to making fresh margaritas and a meal including appetizers, main coarse and dessert. We absolutely loved it! Highly recommend asking for Tania- she is so sweet and made this experience a 5Star review!!

An amazing evening!

Making Trompitos

Tanya met us at the Super Aki so we could buy all the ingredients for what we needed. Then we went back and cooked, and talked and had a deliciously great time. It was like Tanya and I had known each other for years and were old friends. It's a fun experience the whole family can enjoy. I highly recommend it to everyone.

Definitely a worthwhile experience

Tania and Sergio were great hosts. We enjoyed the trip to the market (including comparing products and prices with home, and buying some culinary souvenirs), We got to see and assist with dinner preparations, and ate and drank more than our fill. Conversation was lively, and we were able to learn way more about life on the island than we would have otherwise.

Do it Do it Do it!!! You won't regret it

I don't even know where to start. It was absolutely amazing. Tania met was so lovely with my wife and I and made us feel so welcome. The shopping for dinner was actually an education as we learned so much. Everything that we made was delicious 😋. She even had a nice desert and made me a delicious non alcoholic beverage at my request. My wife had hers with alcohol and said it was fantastic as well. We asked tons and questions that were all answered while cooking and we had a blast. Definitely recommend to anyone who has the time.
