What You’ll Do

Create dishes inspired by the Yucatan region with Chef Alex.

The Yucatan peninsula includes parts of Mexico, Belize, and Guatemala, and each country is represented in the flavorsome dishes that you will create.

Join Chef Alex on this culinary adventure as you visit the Yucatan, and discover legendary regional ingredients. Not only will you be preparing these beautiful dishes from scratch, but you will learn the culture behind each bite. For example, did you know the ingredient nixtamal is the heart of Mexican cuisine and is the basis for corn masa? That is just a small sampling of what you will be learning!

Guests are welcome to bring wine and beer to enjoy during the class.

Chef Alex knows what he's talking about. Lots of interesting technique tips while demonstrating a dish like Steak Au Poivre. Like how to warm the peppercorns before grinding to have them release their flavor and oils. Also, what kind of pan to use to sear a filet and then how to baste it with an herb infused butter. The final results were so tasty, too! The crispy outside of the deep fried smashed potatoes was a real treat as was the Bearnaise sauce. His experience in Mexican and South American flavors really came through in his other dishes as well.
