This cooking school is hands down the best bang for your buck! I came with my brother and good friend (10:30am class). They both had never tried a cooking class in Guatemala before, and we left with full tummies and a new found appreciation for Guatemalan cuisine! During the class, we made Pepían (traditional dish of Guatemala), chocolate stuffed plantains, rice with vegetables, radish mint lime onion salad, plantain juice (really good for a hangover lol), and handmade tortillas! (Tricky, but my favorite part) They showed all the ingredients before we started, and there’s no added artificial flavors, and very little food waste! Each of us was given things to do throughout the class, and it was very simple and fun. We got to drink as much wine as we could, and enjoy all the food when we were done! Sonia was our cook, and she was friendly and knowledgeable, and was always on top of everything. I have lived in Antigua for 2 years and this is easily one of the best things to do with friends and family. I highly recommend this school to have a wonderful time with friends! It was a great way to spend a morning. Thanks La Tortilla! 10/10 would recommend (:

Edwin goes through the history of cacao and its uses. It’s fun when he leads you through making a traditional Mayan cacao drink and even more fun getting thoroughly chocolaty hands as you make your own truffles. Edwin’s daughter is very knowledgeable about the various cacao products available for purchase. Definitely worth a visit.
