Quinta Brava - Santa Cruz Xoxocotlán

My brother and I signed up for the cooking class after looking at a lot of options online. Simply put, we made the right decision. Starting with picking us up at our Airbnb in the morning, everything slowed smoothly and professionally. The class takes place at the most charming little urban farm filled with ducks, chickens, dogs and gardens. I went into the day with apprehension due to some high maintenance eating restrictions and Chef Miguel not only worked around those when choosing the menu, but never made me feel like the odd one out. I would highly recommend this experience regardless of your cooking skill level. And be sure to get some of the chocolate before you leave, it was like nothing we'd ever tasted before. A perfect day all around. Thanks again.

Miguel's teaching method is exactly what we were looking for. He shows you methods and processes that you can take home and actually apply in your own kitchen. We also really appreciate the point he makes about enjoying the cooking and preparation instead of rushing through the process. This time can be an opportunity to connect with your family and those around you. As for the food, it was amazing! As was the market they take you to to buy the food you'll be preparing. What a beautiful space and neighborhood!Since being home we've found that a cast iron griddle on top of our wood stove works great for roasting vegetables for salsa, making all things Maseca related, and for finishing quesadillas!! Thanks for sharing these skills with us. We make fresh tortillas almost once a day now. This was a major goal of ours.

Excelente chef Miguel hace una clase muy amena todos muy encantados con la preparación y degustación.

Excelente experiencia, además de aprender a cocinar, ciertos platillos típicos (salsas, cierto mole, postre deli de plátano,etc. te hacen sentir como en casa. El chef y todo el personal, súper educado, respetuoso y atentos. Una experiencia que vale la pena vivir si vas a Oaxaca.

Tomé un curso de cocina, y estuvo excelente. Miguel nos explico todo, desde un inicio nos hizo sentir en casa, junto con todo su equipo. Todo estuvo increíble y la comida deliciosa, y lo mejor es que nosotros lo preparamos.
