My friend and I are Latinos and we were treated harshly by the chef who showed impatience and racism toward us. He was nice and patient to our white classmates. One of our white classmates also noticed this extreme differential treatment; she actually called the chef a racist.

Excellent experience cooking foods we love to eat. Chef Oscar takes you to the Mercado; you choose the menu; then prepare the dishes and finally enjoy everything you just made. Would definitely recommend

Recommended. Very nice market tour, cooking and eating lunch with new friends. Our group was about 12. Oscar was quick and efficient with his explanations and instructions - he does this every day. The outside kitchen was super clean and well staffed. We received a copy of each of the many dishes we made. Yum.

This was the highlight of our time in Mexico and Oaxaca! We were allowed to pick from a wide range of dishes and given an informative local market tour. We then spent a few hours with refreshments cooking in the lovely garden cooking and learning. The tour operator was warm and made this experience great. Great location too. Would really recommend!

My wife and I had a lovely time learning some traditional dishes with Oscar. This was my second time taking a cooking class from him, and certainly not the last! This time, we did a private class, and it was both fun and informative. Would recommend.

We experienced several cooking classes while in Oaxaca. While interesting, we did not leave inspired to recreate the recipes. However, Oscar demonstrated how these local dishes could be made at home. His recipes are Relatively easy and delicious. The meal afterwards was excellent. Would recommend highly.

Wonderful cooking class with Chef Oscar in Oaxaca. A trip to the market, followed by preparation of Oaxaca soup, tortilla's, tacos al pastor, tamales, mole, and ice cream. All topped off by a feast, complete with mezcal, beer and wine. Learned a lot and had a great time

This was probably the best cooking class I have been to in another country. Oscar is very knowledgable, speaks great English and showed us how to prepare a range of dishes. The trip to the market was only a short walk and Oscar explained about numerous ingredients and uses during the tour. The whole experience was excellent and I would wholeheartedly recommend going. Thank you!

This class is a must do, absolutely amazing! You go through the entire cooking process, from going to the market to eating a 4 course meal, everything completely home made. We had ceviche, tortilla soup, tamales, mole with enchiladas, tortillas, and elote ice cream.

We had an amazing experience with Oscar during the cooking class. He explained everything so well, and the food tasted so delicious. I would highly recommend this cooking class to get to know the oaxacastyle of cooking. We loved how we could socialize for a while after the class, and the drinks flowed freely. An amazing time was had

After taking the group class, Flavours of Oaxaca (which was a great cooking, eating and social experience), I worked with Oscar privately for 2 different sessions. Those sessions were customized to my interested - and they were truly excellent. In addition to learning many new recipes, I was able to discuss the various ingredients wtih Oscar and learn how they are made, used - and the best time to buy them. For our second session, we went back to the market for more learning - and we decided what to make as we walked together and saw the best ingredients of the day. Then I brought home dinner to my family to big cheers. NOTHING was left. A big thanks to Oscar who is both patient and knowledgeable. My friends at home in Canada will be singing Oscar's praises once I get to cook for them!

Casa Crespo was the highlight of my trip to Oaxaca. My sister and I took the class, along with a bigger group. Oscar and his team made for a creative and seamless experience. From the moment we arrived we felt welcome. We enjoyed the local market, cooking and eating an exceptional meal, gracias!

Great experience with outstanding results. Enjoyable day going to the market, cooking several dishes under excellent supervision snd having one of the best meals in the whole trip!

This class was excellent way for you to learn about different flavors, herbs, and taste that Oaxaca has to offer. The staff is super friendly and accommodating. It was a wonderful experience and we would do it again in a heart beat.

Oscar delivers a cookery class with humour and patience. You start by choosing your menu then a visit to the market to see the ingredients used in Oaxacan cooking. Back at the house you prepare the dishes supervised by Oscar. You end up with a beautiful 7 course tasting menu. Beer and mescal are also provided. A great and memorable experience.
