Wow! Everything was FANTASTIC! Miguel is an amazing host and teacher. BIG PLUG for the house Miguel host's this in too as it has AirBnB rentals to stay in. If/when we return to San Miguel we will probably want to stay in this place, even though the place we are in is fantastic, THIS place is tranquil and beautiful, and highly recommended. Miguel walked us around the grounds told us about the history of the home while we enjoyed a chocolate beverage he served us that was delicious. Then we went to the Mexican wine that was fruity and tasty while we jumped into cooking. Miguel had us participate in the preparation while he told us about lots of interesting things about Mole, cacao, Mexican customs, and more. The finished product was delicious and this adventure is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Thanks Miguel!!Ellen_P

Miguel was a wonderful teacher and shared a lot of other information about traditional Mexican cooking techniques. The class was very organized and everyone had the opportunity to get involved in the actual preparation and cooking. I was most interested in making mole but ended up really loving the salsas that Miguel made in the class. Everything was delicious and it was really enjoyable to sit out on the gorgeous patio and share the meal that we all made. The house itself is truly magnificent and the kitchen is a great place for a class.Stephen_H
