We thought that the guacamole was basic, the brownie was good, the strawberry ice cream was icy (avoid it), and the bon bons were impressive.

Enjoyed discussing the food using my limited Spanish with a server who had limited English. Their patio (in back) was very pleasant.

To begin the group was BIG (18 people). We went to the market together but since the group was so big and the aisles in the market are small it was a bit uncomfortable as no one really heard what was going on. To be honest the chef could have made more an effort to explain and show the ingredients. Then we went to the kitchen, it's a big kitchen. He explained all the ingredients but that's it. He just gave everyone a task without explaining what you're making and someone and could get the next step. So I still have no idea how to make the things that we prepared. It was quite chaotic. One moment you were dicing onions and then he told you to grill some veggies. The food though was delicious (portion was a bit small)! So it's a fun activity but not a cooking class.
