The tasting happened in the dining room of Xilote restaurant, which is beautifully decorated with original art from Oaxaca. The chef and his team arranged a delicious menu and well prepared ingredients. We truly enjoyed the food and cultural experience. What a special evening! Thank you so much for this hidden gem!

About me
Executive chef
I’m Carlos, a chef raised in rural Oaxaca and inspired by my grandfather’s connection to the land. I trained at Casa Oaxaca and now lead the kitchens at Xilote and Guzina Oaxaca in Mexico City. My cooking reflects heritage, heart, and deep respect for Oaxacan ingredients and techniques. I look forward to sharing them with you.
