EXCELLENT Based on 144 reviews Posted on Ashley TVerified You go to the market, ride tuktuks to the cooking school, and then make the food This is top notch, the best food and Antigua experience you can do! If you do anything in Antigua let it be this! The instructor Milton gives a lot of contexts for why he chooses the food he cook with at the market and explains his relationship with those at the market. You truly will understand the complex and beautiful process of farm to table here! Milton is very welcoming and was open to all questions about Guatemala to get the best experience and understanding. This is one of the best classes I’ve ever done.Posted on TeamAvoVerified Delicious rooftop cooking Wonderful experience. Hands on cooking. Great rooftop kitchen, lots of delicious food. This was the best I have done. Highly recommendPosted on QTPyePopVerified Wonderful Cooking Class in Antigua! I had a wonderful experience with Foodietenango in Antigua! The day started with a visit to the local market, where we shopped for fresh ingredients and learned about traditional Guatemalan flavors and staples. It was such a fun and immersive way to begin the experience.After the market, we headed just outside the city to a beautiful home where the cooking class took place. The views from the house were absolutely amazing—peaceful, scenic, and the perfect backdrop of Fuego for the afternoon.We cooked pepián, tostadas, salsa, handmade tortillas, and a delicious dessert. Everything was hands-on, well explained, and incredibly rewarding to make (and eat!). Riding a tuk-tuk to and from Antigua added an extra layer of fun and local charm.This experience was equal parts cultural, educational, and delicious. If you’re visiting Antigua and want a genuine, memorable food experience, Foodietenango is a must.Posted on Kevin HVerified Cooking class in Antigua My girlfriend and I really enjoyed the cooking class! We started in the market shopping for the ingredients. Bring an appetite because you wind up making a LOT of food. We made pepián, tostadas, dobladas, and rellenitos (i think that’s what they were called). Highly recommend!Posted on Traveler56656784720Verified Vale la pena! Buena comida; buena compañía. No nos habríamos arriesgado de otra manera a comer los alimentos callejeros locales que vimos en la web antes de nuestra visita. Una noche en Antigua bien - pasó.Posted on Michelle GVerified Una noche maravillosa en Antigua. Milton era un guía maravilloso. Nos sentimos muy seguros. Lleva una camisa con el logotipo de su empresa y nos recibió por su nombre. En general, la experiencia fue increíble! El recorrido por el mercado nos permitió ver el mercado desde una perspectiva local. Probamos tantas frutas tropicales que nunca habíamos visto antes. La cocina de Milton es preciosa. La comida era increíble. Recomendamos visitar el mercado y cocinar con Milton.Posted on Emily SVerified Personable cooking class Highly recommend this class if you enjoy going to the market and cooking in front of a beautiful view of the three volcanoes!Posted on Meline CVerified Ein Muss in Antigua! Dieser Kochkurs war fantastisch! Die Markttour war ein besonderer Teil, bei dem man viele tolle Informationen erhält. Die Aussicht der Küche ist einmalig und die Gastgeber machen das Erlebnis einzigartig. Ich würde diese Aktivität jedem empfehlen.Posted on btsmithVerified 2pm Guatemalan cooking class Had a great time with Milton and his sister! They did a wonderful job picking us up and teaching us new cooking methods. Food was tasty and it was fun visiting the market for fresh produce. Tuktuk was outside waiting for us to take us back to the central plaza. Tons of food we were stuffed. Fun way to spend an afternoon!Posted on Andrea FVerified Maravillosa experiencia culinaria! No puedo recomendar esta clase de cocina y experiencia suficiente! Milton proporcionó un recorrido muy considerado por el mercado y su importancia dentro de la comunidad. Desde allí, nos llevaron a su maravillosa cocina en la azotea con una gran vista de los volcanes. La clase de cocina era muy interactiva y tenía un montón de detalles especiales y nuestra comida era deliciosa. Toda la noche fue muy bien coordinado y relajante. A mi familia le encantó toda la experiencia y fue una gran manera de terminar nuestro viaje a Antigua. Bonus diversión con el tuk - paseos en tuk!
