Cook Your Chile Relleno and Eat it Too!

There’s lots of things to love about Mexico and the food is likely high on that list. Learning to prepare favorite classic Mexican dishes like mole, chile relleno, enchiladas and more can be a fun and delicious way to spend an afternoon.

I took some friends to the local cooking school where we learned the “whole enchilada” from prep to fire; stuffing poblano peppers with potatoes and cheese and rolling and pressing own tortillas and pan roasting and blending the delicate red sauce.

Our chef and teacher made the whole class a fun ang tasty experience. Would highly recommend to anyone that enjoys eating and learning to cook!

Relaxing spot in the jungle

A visit to the Troncones – Playa La Saladita Riviera wouldn’t be complete without stopping for an evening soak at the local hot springs. Located pretty much in the middle of nowhere your best bet getting there is to hire a local taxi. Make sure to bring plenty of water as the upper pool is literally bubbling out of the ground. There’s a rich mineral clay you can scrape around the edges of the pool that serves as a natural exfoliant. You’ll feel both energized and relaxed after a visit and your body will thank you.

Time for Yoga

The Mexican pacific and specially the Troncones – Playa La Saladita Riviera is the perfect backdrop for starting or continuing your yoga practice. Private yoga instruction is available in Playa La Saladita through teacher Violeta Barajas. For group classes and regularly scheduled yoga workshops Yoga Del Pacifico and Casa Verde in Troncones are both excellent options.
