You will be cooking along with us a delicious homestyle, traditional "Casado" meal with many of the fresh ingredients coming from our local farm Wrapsodia and sourced from the community nearby. We start off by doing some "mixology" and learn how to make our signature Kiss of the Cacique. Then get the inside scoop on our secret recipes for the best-tasting rice, black beans, chicken fajitas, picadillo vegetable mixture, fresh salad and try your hand at making corn tortillas.
