You'll feel as if you're dining by the ocean in this fun cooking class taught by Chef Stacy. Learn an expert's culinary tips and techniques for creating your favorite Mexican cuisine through three flavorful courses inspired by dishes enjoyed on Baja beaches.

To begin, Chef Stacy will guide you in making a refreshing shrimp or white fish ceviche with fresh and tangy flavors from cucumbers and lime. Next, make handmade tortillas for sizzling fajitas, filled with your choice of savory carne asada, pollo asado or mixed vegetables. You'll also craft spicy rice with poblano and jalapeño peppers and garlicky black beans as a side. Finish your meal by indulging in sweet and crunchy churros dipped in a homemade chocolate sauce.

So much fun! We did this brunch class for my husband’s birthday and Chef Stacy made it simple and fun. Not to mention delicious! We’re already talking about doing another around/for Valentine’s Day.

Such a fun experience for my partner and I. We loved getting to learn to make sushi and try it at home now that we've learned the basics. Thanks so much Chef Stacy!

As always Chef Stacy’s class was phenomenal! She takes you step by step and is organized and doesn’t rush! Her recipes are amazing! I have numerous allergies and colitis so there are many foods I can’t eat, but Chef Stacy always gives an alternative that works!! Thank you Chef Stacy!

Excellent, patient but appropriately fast-paced instructor. Willing to answer questions and make modifications as needed to ingredients.

Hi. I liked the recipes but the prep instructions were vague especially when it came to the eggplant and zucchini. Too many recipes and not enough time to do it all well. It was a mad rush and that's not fun from my perspective.
