I've done many food tours and this cooking event was one of the best! Highly recommend this chance to work with a local chef to shop for ingredients and make a 4 course meal. After shopping for fruits/veggies at Market 23 (and picking up a few fruits we had never tried before), we headed to the restaurant to make lunch. The highlight was learning to make tortillas and sopes from scratch from the woman who makes thousands every day!
