24 Dec 2009

Come join us for an ongoing series of culinary adventures with Patricia Jinich, as we travel through time, regions and topics exploring the wonders of Mexican cuisine. Let yourself be swaddled in Mexican hospitality and warmth and enjoy an entertaining demo, a full meal and music.
Each class participants take home a packet of recipes and ingredients along with the detailed to-die-for recipes in a goodie bag to get them started in their own kitchens.
“You know how some people just light up a room? In Patricia Jinich's case it's more than just a smile, although hers is spectacular. Its her unique combination of grace, modesty, passion and energy that does it. She also happens to have quickly become one of my favorite cooking teachers in the city. When I finally made it to one of her classes...”
--Joe Yonan, The Washington Post
