Siamo state accolte dalle donne della famiglia che ci hanno offerto una bevanda tipica, catapultandoci immediatamente nella loro cultura. Ci siamo subito messe all'opera e guidate dalle loro mani esperte abbiamo preparato diversi piatti della tradizione Maya di cui sentiamo ancora il gusto!
Si tratta di un'esperienza a 360°, non solo culinaria. Abbiamo fatto un piccolo tour della loro tenuta, dove producono buona parte di quello che poi si cucina.
C'è anche la possibilità di soggiornare, le camere sono molto graziose e pulite.
Imperdibile, vale la pena anche fare un po' di strada se si viene da più lontano.
