The real Oaxacan farm-to-table cooking experience
Sharing the secrets of authentic Oaxacan cuisine since 2014
At Quinta Brava, we welcome you to a culinary experience at our family’s small farm (quinta). We have a tranquil oasis 15 minutes from the center of Oaxaca City. For the day, YOU will help design the menu and be involved in every step of the cooking process: picking ingredients in the garden, shopping at the local market, preparing the dishes, and of course, enjoying the food in a 100% hands on workshop
Traditional techniques taught by a local pro
After a decade of experience as a chef around the world, Miguel Alvarez returned to Mexico with the goal of exploring and mastering back-to-roots, ancient cooking from all over his home state of Oaxaca. He will be your guide as you explore the vibrant flavors and history of classic Oaxacan cuisine.

“The menu was PHENOMENAL and the experience is one I will always remember. The location is so fun and huge. Full of fruit trees and hammocks with a stunning outdoor kitchen. It is very hands-on with the options to chill back and relax as well. We are more than thankful for this magical experience. Thank you SO much. He was more than a host, he made us feel like family.”
