I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT:
IT IS NOT A RESTAURANT, I DO NOT CONSIDER MYSELF A CHEF
I am Minerva Lopez and I am a traditional cook from Oaxaca and I have more than 40 years of experience in pre-Hispanic and traditional cooking.
I invite you to spend a day at my house, with my family, my culture, it is an authentic experience where you will learn to cook as I learned, as if it were with mom!
Our groups are small which makes for an intimate, family experience
The market that we visited is the largest in Oaxaca and it is not touristic, where the locals go to buy our fresh and organic ingredients, here it is possible to adapt our menu to your tastes
There are vegan, vegetarian and meat lovers options.
At home away from the city in a small town, our outdoor wood stove is the best place to cook.
Everything we will eat is prepared at home
MORE THAN A CLASS IS A UNIQUE EXPERIENCE OF FLAVORS AND KNOWLEDGE
Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller
Service animals allowed

Highly recommended! We started the day picking up fresh ingredients at a local market, very little tourists around. Minerva walked around and introduced the group to local spices, food, and drinks. On the way to her beautiful home we stopped to pick up freshly ground corn for the tamales we learned how to cook. Minerva walked us through the whole process aided by her daughter and crew. Her daughter treated us to a refreshing drink and we also tried Oaxacan chocolate milk.

Minerva is an accomplished, award-winning chef who has learned how to create a great experience for her guests. We met at the meeting place, were met by a translator who was from the US, met Minerva herself, and then jumped into a very nice van that drove us to a local market where we were the only tourists. We marveled as Minerva expertly navigated its sprawl, and were given the opportunity to see and taste our way through - buying up whatever we fancied along the way. We then got back in the van, made a pitstop to get our corn ground, and then drove to Minerva’s own home where we cooked and ate and cooked and ate. Minerva, her daughter, and her team were just excellent hosts. Highly recommend!

Our group really enjoyed Minerva's cooking class! The outdoor cooking area is very relaxing surrounded by a garden. We were cooking a complicated mole recipe, so she had the whole group divide up responsibilities and take turns prepping and cooking different items to make up the dish. We really liked this arrangement because it gave us time to watch and relax, versus cooking the entire time. The stove is also very hot, so it worked out well to take turns. Would definitely recommend!

A perfect day. Annotated visit to the huge traditional central market. Minibus transport to Minerva’s beautiful home up in the hills not far from Monte Alban. Hands-on and thorough lesson where Minerva took us through selecting ingredients for and preparing her family recipe for black mole plus making corn tortillas. A mezcal moment. And we got to eat the delicious meal that we helped to create. A most satisfying day that I highly recommend!

This was just what we hoped it would be! Minerva took us to the market to shop for the meal we were going to prepare. She is so knowledgeable and such a great teacher. Authentic cooking over an open fire and comal. It was a hands on experience and we learned so much!
