Why choose this Mexico City tour ?

Meet Lucía, a culinary expert, at Mercado San Angel, a bustling covered market filled with everything you need to make a traditional Mexican meal at home. Lucía will teach you about the local products on offer – from farm-fresh fruits and vegetables, to dried chilies and spices, to flowers and handicrafts.

After exploring the market together you will take a taxi to Lucia’s home to begin your cooking lesson. During this experience, you will cook authentic Mexican dishes with your host Lucía in her spacious home kitchen and learn some of her favorite cooking tips and techniques! Lucía is a gastronomic historican and can cook a wide variety of Mexican dishes, from traditional family recipes passed down through generations of home cooks, to modern dishes using fresh, local ingredients. 

Your menu will be based on the season and might include dishes such as albondigas en salsa de chile chipotle mecos (meatballs in a smoked chili sauce) and sopa de nopalitos to name a few.
