Garner F2025-03-17Verified Fantastic Mexican Culinary Experience My daughter, wife and I took Gaby's cooking course. Have to say it was probably my most enjoyable and memorable day in Mexico. Julio was a great communicator and the day was well organized. The course is very hands on from grilling to blending to chopping - you name it. He provided a great history lesson about Mexico and it's cuisine. He showed us how to buy the best ingredients at the market. We even got a small tour of PV as we did that. Can't walk? They have a shuttle bus. We used the whole professional kitchen and all its equipment. Everyone chipped in. We made a beautiful spread with all the recipes we completed. Plus, great Mexican drinks provided by the restaurant. Highly highly recommend Gaby's Cooking Course. I will recommend to all my friends and family who are visiting PV to sign up for this wonderful course. It's that good! Charlie (Carlos) Travel342725522342025-03-16Verified Incredible class and dining We had an incredible cooking class with Chef Julio - and it was so good we returned for a birthday meal the next day. Chef’s passion for Mexico and Mexican food was clear, and we felt honoured to explore his recipes together. We walked through Vallarta snd were introduced to everyone at the local market, even trying some tortillas straight from the tortillia. The course was adapted to what we enjoyed eating, and it was the best thing we did in our entire 2 week trip. The setting - on a rooftop with views of the church and sea - was incredible. And I’m really proud of the food we made together. It tasted incredible. We ended with raicilla tasting and a great chat over food. So good - highly recommend. The next day we returned to dine for my birthday. We had enchiladas with mole sauce. The food, drinks, and ambiance were perfect. Thank you so much - we will be back next year. M B2025-03-08Verified Great Mexican cooking class It was the most delicious mole I tried so far in PV. Chef Julio is the best. Very knowledgeable about history of Mexico and how important food is in the country.Julio is funny and a wonderful cook. He made the experience memorable. Will be back for more. Susan L2025-03-03Verified A wonderful, family-owned restaurant - don't miss out on the cooking class! Gaby's is a great choice for authentic Mexican food in a beautiful setting. Everyone enjoyed their dinner and drinks. Highlights were the "Julio Cesar" salad prepared tableside, the Mole chicken and Chile Rellenos. Everything on the Cinco de Mayo combination plate was delicious. We highly recommend starting your trip with the half-day "Best of Gaby's Mexican Cooking Class" led by Owner/Chef Julio. You'll get interesting PV history, a walking tour including tips on choosing the best ingredients, and the fun of helping to prepare and sample a buffet full of delicious foods for lunch. Francis P2025-02-12Verified Gaby’s Cooking Class, Spectacular! I did the Cooking Class and absolutely loved it! Chef Julio not only knows is way around the kitchen but knows a lot about Mexico and it’s culture. The class itself was great! Trip to the market with many local tips from the Chef along the way; from where to eat to how to buy the best fresh produce! The class itself was fun, everyone was involved with chopping, cooking, mixing… I was amazed how much stuff we made and trust me you will not need any food for the rest of the day. Bonus, a great full colour PDF cook book for everything we made plus more! Try the Traditional Margarita recipe! All in all the best experience and value for what you get. Excursion100607999552025-02-06Verified Cooking class We enrolled for the food tour. One of the best things we’ve experienced this trip. Chef, Aldo and Dulce were great. Chef has tons of knowledge, from shopping for the ingredients, area history and food prep. A great experience that all should try. The food was absolutely delicious too. A very hands on cooking class. mikegcomer2025-01-19Verified A Must! Get reservations and sit outside on a nice evening. The Shrimp Special was outstanding. Ask to have it prepared table-side. nlisaroy2025-01-18Verified Mexican Cooking Class Cooking class with chef Julio was awesome. We learned some history about Vallarta, pro shopping tips at the market, where to eat and recipes! Class size was appropriate, time frame was good, learning to prepare authentic Mexican food was fun!
