Donna does a GREAT JOB -- this is a MUST DO when you are in CABO. The class is great, the food is wonderful and you learn about food, culture, some of the local markets and resturants that are off the beaten path AND how to make wonderful dishes. Side benefits -- meet great people from around the world --... More

It was a rewarding experience in many ways! First, Donna took us to a small restaurant off the beaten path where the corn tortillas are made as they have been for centuries. Our little meal tasted so fresh! It's amazing to see Donna in action, so comfortable with everything Mexican. Donna's dedication to her craft gave us a deeper appreciation... More

I've taken this class 3 times and each time I learn something new each time. Donna is very down to earth and knows her stuff inside and out. She brings out the flavor without over spicing a true art. Her recipes are all well balance and wonderful.You'll have fun learning, cooking and eating what you learned.

This was such an enjoyable experience for us on our first visit to Cabo. Donna started things off by taking around the 'real' cultural parts of town, away from the developing resorts and restaurant chains. We stopped where local women hand made tortillas but since it was Good Friday they were closed. But we did stop at a restaurant where... More

From the very beginning it was a great experience. Donna promptly answered all my emails with very clear, concise information. A very easy meet-up location started off the day and it just started getting better. Donna's home and kitchen is welcoming and she is a gracious hostess. She is funny and full of information, not only about Mexican cuisine but... More

I'm no slouch in the kitchen and when my wife said she booked the class, I was a little leery. I was super entertained and got a ton of learning out of this experience. I really liked the fact that this is a very information intense class, not just throw a few knives and a couple limes your way and... More

I've been wanting to attend a cooking class with Donna for the last few years and when friends decided to come to Cabo with us I knew this was the time. We had a great time. Donna is an excellent cook, teacher and very knowledgable of traditional Mexican and its history. We look forward to taking additional classes. Donna made... More

We contacted Donna through her blog and she promptly emailed back. We made arrangements to meet her at the mall and then took a taxi to her beautiful home sitting on a hill overlooking the desert and the ocean in the distance. We met another couple in the class and we enjoyed getting to know them too. As it's been... More

We had a great time with Donna learning traditional Mexican cooking techniques in the comfort foods class. I would definitely come back for another class if I'm ever in Cabo again and would recommend a class to anyone traveling in the area who enjoys cooking.
