My family of four ( my husband and sons 25 and 21) just returned from our first visit to Mexico City. We unanimously agreed that our day with Beto and Jorge was one of our best vacation days ever! The day started with Jorge leading the group of 8 on a tour of a local market- that was both educational and delicious. We learned about the incredients we would cook and sampled amazing local specialties. Jorge then led us back to Casa Jacaranda, stopping along the way to sample tortillas and chocolate. Next stop- the breathtakingly beautiful home of Beto and Jorge. They are masterful chefs and teachers who engaged everyone in the group, ensuring that we each played a key part in preparing the meal. Hours later we sat down for cocktails, home made tacos and other appetizers. We then moved to their beautiful terrace to enjoy the feast we prepared with perfectly paired wine and great conversation! This experience was so much more than a cooking class- it is a unique opportunity to experience the hospitality, warmth and wit of Beto and Jorge who make you feel very quickly like old friends!

Four of us (husband, son, friend and I) took the salsa making class and market tour. It was a fantastic experience. First we had a review of Mexican cooking, then a very thorough market tour complete with sampling everything from fresh made corn and flour tortilla’s to crunchy grass hoppers, taco’s, ice cream, and cacao. We then returned to Graciela’s lovely kitchen to make 10 salsa’s from mild to very ????! The lunch consisted of pork, cochinita pibil, eggs, artesanal beer, mescal and more! Don’t eat much before this class as the market food samples and lunch are delicious and filling! Highly recommend this cooking school as it was the highlight of our trip.

I really loved my experience here. I got to meet several teachers while I was there and found they all where very educated, knew their craft, and wanted all of us to succeed. Learning a new language isn’t always easy and it really helped knowing I had partners at the school who created an environment that really helped us all learn. Class sizes aren’t that big, and they also have a great private tutoring program and remote lessons (after you’re done). Check them out if you need to learn Español.

10. Memory and Tolerance Museum
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 1,570 reviews
The Memory and Tolerance Museum delinates -in a didactic manner- the historical memory of the multiple genocides and crimes against humanity. The visit warns the viewer of the danger of difference, discrimination and violence in order to engender responsability, respect and consciousness in each and every person. Contemporary subjects are also presented in order to lead us to reflect on the role we wish to play in our every day lives. Tolerance, diversity, dialogue and empathy force us to see the commitment we all have to humanity. The visitor is invited to be generators of change through social action.

This museum focuses initially on the World War II Holocaust and covers genocidal atrocities in other regions like Armenia, Guatemala, Rwanda, Bosnia, Darfur and others which I found to be a unique experience compared to other museum experiences I've had. While each exhibit is full of information, poignant, and approached with a multi-media experience, I really appreciated the corrollary to the exhibit: tolerance, commnunity, diversity, acceptance. This included the effects of modern day technology (fake news, social media) and certain presidents deriding certain nationalities which made me feel tremendously ashamed. I thought the temporary exhibit was well done, though a little juvenile, I'm glad this museum aims to plant seeds early and is accessible to all ages. I noticed in the bookstore that other temporary exhibitions are ones I regret missing, too. Really well done!
