Step inside a local home in Cuernavaca for a guided tasting session featuring 34 traditional Mexican foods and drinks, carefully selected to showcase the country’s rich culinary culture.You’ll join a small group around the table as your host introduces each tasting in bite-sized portions.
As you taste, your local host explains what each item is, when Mexicans typically eat it, and how indigenous, colonial, and modern influences shaped the country’s cuisine.
The goal isn’t just to taste great food, but to understand the stories behind it.
The experience is relaxed and social. There’s time to ask questions, compare flavors, and enjoy the moment together as each new dish is introduced.
This experience takes place inside the home of your local host, offering a more authentic and comfortable setting than a traditional culinary studio.

"...Hearing when people eat panuchos, why cochinita tastes the way it does, or how families use sour orange at home gave each bite a meaning I didn’t expect. Even the quiet stops — a spice stall, a tiny cantina — helped me see the city differently. By the end, it wasn’t just 34 flavors; it felt like a crash course in how Mérida tells its story through food."
I’d tried Yucatán dishes before, but tasting them in Mérida made everything click....
