Very personalized and intimate experience. Definitely would recommend going to the market . Francisco was very friendly. My son was overheated and Francisco took notice and tried to accommodate us differently. He personalized the cooking class to our vegetarian and vegan needs as well. We made chile relenos, guac, tortillas, and different salad. We had a great time!

We had a great time with chef Francisco. He took us to a local market where he explained how to pick the best vegetables. This was followed by a trip to a tortilla factory and then to his kitchen. This is where the magic happened. Francisco taught us how to cut the vegetables and prepare the food. We even learned how to make margaritas. Our meal was delicious. If you are in the San Jose area this is a great cooking class.
