Tues 10

10-11 AM

VISITITA: Mercado San Juan

Mexico City's Gourmet Market, also referred to as the "exotic" market because of the variety of peculiar ingredients by today’s western standards, such as insects and lion meat, has the best quality EVERYTHING, and is the market where chefs do their shopping. We’ll speak with the vendors that sell everything Oaxacan and take a few questions from members. If you see anything you like, we’ll have it shipped to you!*

We all mourn travel. Visits are ways to help you get to know the city and give you some local knowledge while supporting local businesses that have been hurt by the travel ban whenever possible. In lieu of traveling, this is the closest you can get to the insider perspective of Mexico City!

COOKING CLASS: Antiviral Recipes For Winter

Recipes that support our digestive and immune systems to ward off winter illnesses.

​

Ingredient and equipment lists are made available prior to each class.
