LIMITED TIME! Transport to Mexico in this Incredibly Special Chile en Nogada Experience

LIMITED TIME CLASS! Cue the champagne and get ready to transport into the private kitchen of Chef Andres. Don't miss this incredibly special Chile en nogada cooking experience. This classic dish is Mexican heritage and pride, served on a plate. Chile en Nogada is a delightful and complex dish that marries slightly spicy poblano peppers, savory picadillo stuffing, a mixture of ground meat, fruits, nuts, and spices, and the rich, creamy walnut sauce known as nogada. Garnished with pomegranate seeds and chopped parsley, this festive dish is savory, sweet, nutty and so delicious, you'll long for the flavors year round. 


Chile en nogada is particularly important in Mexican cuisine due to its deep cultural and historical roots. Often associated with Mexican Independence Day celebrations, Chile en Nogada embodies the colors of the Mexican flag—green from the poblano chilies, white from the nogada sauce, and red from the pomegranate seeds. It’s not just a culinary delight but a symbol of the magnificent country.

Chef Andres Jordan went way above and beyond! Excellent experience, great personality, the food was absolutely amazing, and my fiancé and I had the perfect date night!! It was great learning also about the history and tradition of this Mexican dish and he was beyond personable which made the experience even better! We cannot wait to share this with friends and family. If you want a 10/10 experience, would highly recommend working with Chef Andres Jordan! Thank you so much and thank you to The Chef and The Dish!

My husband and I took the Chicken Tinga class with Chef Andres and highly recommend it! It was one of the most delicious meals I've ever eaten and Andres was such a joy. He was so knowledgeable and incredibly down-to-earth.

Sydney Lambert

My experience with Chef Andrés was absolutely amazing start to finish. His ability to tell a story through food was incredible. His ability to show you how to cook the dish as well as ways to evolve it into your own was incredible. Would book another class in a heartbeat. Would recommend anyone to take his class to learn a lot about cooking a lot about Mexican cuisine and culture. fantastic.

Josh Batista

My husband and I took Chef Andres’ Chicken Tingas class! Not only is he a talented chef, but he was also a wonderful person. His food was absolutely incredible. Unlike anything we have ever had as avid cookers ourselves! He taught us a little bit of history behind Mexican cuisine and gave us amazing tips to use in our cooking along the way! We highly recommend Chef Andres and cannot wait to take one of his classes again! 10/10
