Is a two hundred dollar cooking class in Mexico City worth the investment?
In short: Ethan Chlebowski shares his experience attending a high-end culinary workshop at Casa Jacaranda. This video breaks down the day, from market tours to hands-on preparation of traditional dishes, offering insight into whether such an immersive experience provides genuine value for a cooking enthusiast.
The day began with a guided tour of the Mercado de Medellín, where participants engaged with local vendors to learn about essential ingredients. The experience continued at a local tortillería before moving to Casa Jacaranda to cook a full meal. The menu featured tamales, manchamanteles, tortillas, and sopes.
While the $200 price point is significant, the value is found in the combination of hands-on culinary education, the volume of food consumed, and the overall experience of the day.
