Chef Javier’s culinary ventures have taken him from Mexico City to Ontario. He quickly ascended from sous chef to head chef, maintaining a blend of humility, passion and respect for food and those he cooks for. He prides himself on his merging of Mexican flavor with French technique to create his own unique brand of cuisine. Chef Javier is eager to share his expertise with aspiring gourmets who love cooking as much as he does.

I enjoyed the class. Though it would be helpful if the description would be more accurate. The class isn’t exactly “hands on”. The chef will describe Step by step instructions on how to make the food and will allow you to participate. I was looking for a more hands on experience where a chef will teach and you will have your own station recreating the recipe. However overall the class was great.
