Discover the dish's fascinating history and prepare it from scratch like thousands of families around Mexico.

Celebrate independence month as millions of Mexicans do with this chile en nogada cooking class and festive dinner!
Discover the fascinating story behind one of Mexico's best-loved dishes before rolling up your sleeves and preparing it yourself using fresh seasonal ingredients at the beautiful Condesa home of your chef/guide.
Around two hours later, use Mexican Independence Day paraphernalia and serveware made by local artisans to prepare a picture-perfect table, then dig in to a delicious sweet-and-savoury poblano pepper stuffed with protein, fruit & nuts and served with a creamy walnut sauce and garnish.
