Who are we?

Founded in 2007, El Frijol Feliz cooking school in Antigua Guatemala specializes in teaching Guatemalan cuisine in a fun and engaging way. Classes are small, always less than five students, so please be prepared to do the cooking yourself guided by our chef.

Cooking School Antigua Guatemala

Take home the rich culture of Guatemala by learning how to prepare the local cuisine! Guatemalan cuisine is an exotic mixture of traditional colonial Spanish and local Mayan cooking that is both delicious and fun to prepare.  Classes are small, private, and hands on with our native Guatemalan Chef Gaby.  Frijol Feliz offers cooking classes, a sauces class and culinary tours.  Learn how to prepare the food on our kitchen and then enjoy your food in either our beautiful dining room or patio.
