Fusion Mexican Cooking Workshop with Locals

Dive into the heart of Mexican cuisine with this unique tour, hosted in a cozy local home in Puerto Vallarta. This intimate experience invites you to the kitchen of Tanya, a passionate cook who retired and moved from Canada to Mexico, eager to share the culinary secrets she's embraced from her Mexican neighbors and friends.

Your culinary adventure starts with a convenient pick-up from the port, whisking you away to Tanya's welcoming home in Ixtapa. Over the course of an hour, Tanya will guide you through the preparation of both an appetizer or dessert and a main dish, integrating her unique fusion of flavors that have been honed over 2 1/2 years of living and cooking in Mexico.

From the zesty tang of guacamole and the sweet and spicy harmony of shrimp tacos with mango salsa to the refreshing kick of a fresh Paloma cocktail, each recipe offers a glimpse into the vibrant Mexican food culture.

After cooking, you'll join Tanya at the dining table to enjoy the fruits of your labor, sharing stories and dishes in a truly authentic setting. Whether it's the succulence of shrimp ceviche tostadas, the richness of chicken enchiladas with salsa, or the indulgent sweetness of chocolate avocado mousse, each bite promises to be a celebration of genuine Mexican hospitality and flavor.

Ideal for food enthusiasts, this experience highlights the warmth of Puerto Vallarta's local life and the depth of its culinary heritage — offering a perfect blend of learning, dining, and cultural immersion within a half-day experience.
