Chefs’ Intensive Course
An In-Depth Exploration of the Oaxacan Kitchen
This course is an in-depth exploration of the Oaxacan kitchen with daily intensive cooking classes. In the mornings, we visit markets and cantinas, meet artists and food producers, and follow up with the hands-on classes at the Ranch. Chile tasting, cheese making, menu development plus visits to a mezcal palenque and a local microbrewery make this adventure a must for anyone serious about Mexican cooking.
Bond with other chefs and share ideas about our industry. Join Susana and meet some of her chef friends in the land of the natural-born “foodies” of southern Mexico.
