Food, culture, history, oh my! - We had a great time. Chef David really knows his stuff. He is passionate about the history and culture of the area. The menu was tasty and we learned a ton about San Miguel. We wouldn't hesitate to take another class when we return.

A STUNNING NOT TO BE MISSED COOKING EXPERIENCE!!!! - My brother and sisters spent four hours with Chef Jahnke and every second was just splendid. We learned, we chopped, we listened and watched, we chopped some more, we ate and we were completely transported through Mexican culture and food history and charmed by Chef David. It was the highlight of our trip for sure.

Best San Miguel experience - Having spent the past week in San Miguel with my family I have to say the highlight was the Chef David Jahnke Cooking Classes School.
David is a wonderful teacher who started the class with an insightful history of the origin of food from all over the world, I learned many things that I did not know. He taught us how to make (from scratch) 'Tortilla Soup', ‘Ceviche al estilo Acapulco’, 'Mole Poblano' and ‘Flan de Chocolate’...all were exceptional.
Highly recommend this class and its value is many times the cost.
We will definitely take another class when we return to San Miguel!!!

Memorable cooking (and dining) experience with Chef Jahnke! - We had friends visiting who love to cook and have taken cooking classes in several countries. We opted for a German class (my heritage) and added one French dish. Chef Jahnke is a professional chef, and what a difference that made. He shared with us some history and background of the food we were preparing. All the ingredients were market fresh and purchased same day. There was just enough “hands on” cooking for all of us to be involved without being overwhelmed. The food was absolutely delicious, and Chef shared all the recipes. The entire experience was worth every minute. Vielen Dank Chef Jahnke

Enriching experience and amazing food! - Probably the best thing we did in San Miguel. David is so knowledgeable not only about cooking, but the history of food and culture worldwide, and he weaves those lessons in perfectly to the class. David was also very very patient with my kids and had tools and techniques prepared just for them to use. The class was super well organized, with some things prepared in advance so we could enjoy and not get overwhelmed. And the food was delicious! Highly recommend taking a class with David if you are in the vicinity of San Miguel!

Fantastic Experience - A group of 7 of us signed up for this class and absolutely loved it. We all consider our selves cooks but learned many things both about Mexican cuisine and cooking tips too. David adjusted the menu per our request too (and very last minute) which we so appreciated and were highlights too! Cannot recommend enough.
