We had an exceptional experience with Erick as our private chef and guide to traditional Mexican cuisine in our place in Mexico City. From the very beginning, his communication was clear, thoughtful, and highly collaborative. He tailored the menu beautifully to our group, honored traditional flavors, and offered meaningful customizations that made the experience feel both authentic and personal. The food itself was outstanding — generous, flavorful, and prepared with evident care and expertise. Beyond the meal, Erick is a wonderful teacher and host. He explained techniques and ingredients in a way that was engaging and easy to follow, making the experience both educational and relaxed. He was friendly, professional, and brought such a warm presence into our space. The value for the quality of food, service, and teaching was excellent. We would absolutely work with Erick again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a memorable, authentic culinary experience.

We did the pizza class and it was perfect!!! We wanted to do something different and fun for a night in and Erick’s pizza class blew us away. From making dough to using his portable pizza oven, the hours were well spent and the pizza turned out great!! There was plenty of snacking and food by the end with great conversation and food recommendations. Erick was personable and fun, made the class feel easy and comfortable. Would absolutely recommend!!!

As an Airbnb employee, I spend a lot of time on the platform looking for innovative services and experiences. This one from Erick was fantastic. He was knowledgeable, friendly, great to work with and learn and a true chef with a lot of stories to tell. The food was fantastic and how he explained the process for us to learn how to make pizza was unique. This is a great thing to try for anyone. Highly recommended!
