Thanks Netzi! - We had our class with Chef Netzi and it was amazing. Making the guacamole and the corn tortillas was a lot of fun and they turned out really delicious.
Chef Netzi and Dulce made us feel very comfortable and fed us until we were full. We learned so much about Mexican cuisine and culture, this was 100% worth it!

Amazing experience trying Mexican salsas! - I had a wonderful time with a few friends from different countries. Graciela is an amazing chef and a great host! She took us to the local market and explained everything about the different chiles, fruits and vegetables that are part of the Mexican cuisine. This was my second experience with Aura Cocina Mexicana. I highly recommend it!

Uplifting your spirit! - Amazing! Wonderful! Uplifting! We were a group of 10 women who took the salsa class after a long morning of touring the historical center. Dragging ourselves to the front door of Aura, we were hesitant that we'd make it through the class because we were so tired. But as the door opened, and we were greeted by Graciela's amazing team, our energy increased at each touchpoint. Every detail of the class was executed perfectly, from a welcome sign with all our names, to small bags to hold our masks, to the meticulous set up of each of our cooking places. Graciela was not only super informative and knowledgeable about Mexican cuisine but elegant, gracious and inspirational. The class became a highlight of our trip to Mexico and one we are all carrying in our hearts. This class is much more than learning about salsas, the team at Aura takes their experience and passion to create an emotional connection to each person who enters their doors. Truly something very, very special!!

Best salsa making experience has it all! - Llama Los bomberos! The morning cooking class has it all! Market tour with samples of regional food along the way, visit to flour/corn tortilleria (tortilla shop), and, of course, hands on cooking with the one and only, Graciela. She is kind, witty, and knows her stuff! We learned and laughed our way to making 10 different delicious, traditional salsas of the course of 4 hours (including market tour). We learned techniques for roasting, peeling, and re-hydrating peppers and other veggies. Graciela is sensitive to different likings of spiciness and accommodated our group accordingly. After prepping all of the salsas Graciela’s sous chefs brought out an entire Mexican feast. We had carnitas, cochinita pibil, nopales (cooked cactus), eggs, and more. She taught us the pairings of salsas and various foods. To top it off, we enjoyed quality mezcal, local craft beer, and dessert. I left stuffed. Would highly recommend this class to anyone of any cooking skill level. You just need to love salsa and amazing Mexican food! Muchas Gracias Graciela!!
