Hello everyone!!!

I am Miguel Alvarez, I’m a chill and nice person who has a passion for coking and living, i like to travel around and after traveling a lot, I decided to go back home and keep learning about my heritage and learn proper ancient Oaxaca cuisine, like my grand mother cooking, i decided to travel all around oaxaca state to learn about techniques, flavors and procedures to try to go back to roots and recover the Oaxacan ancient cuise cooked like in the villages generation before, in 2016 i create a concept called

"Eating like in the village"

http://exploraoaxaca.mx/2880/gastronomia/comiendo-como-en-el-pueblo/

the idea was to show and share all the knowledge about local ancient oaxacan cuisine cooked in the old fashion way in wooden stoves, exactly like in the vilages, the restaurant was a succes, so, in 2017 I decided to create

“The Real Oaxacan Cooking Experience”

the main idea of this project is to show you in a complete 100% hands on work shop the magic of Oaxacan ancient food… i think is a nice way to expand the mind, the library of flavors and generate more knowledge, i like to learn from different cultures, dishes, places, people i enjoy discovering new combinations of flavors. I’m in love of traditional oaxacan cooking and its magic.

on my spare time i enjoy outdoor sports, I’m a profesional competitive swimmer who also enjoys mountain bike riding, surfing, climbing and also chat with new people about different types of food and parts of the world for example.

basically I’m really easy going open minded person.

we can enjoy a nice mezcal, coffee, mate or beer anytime

cheers

chef Miguel
