I was very disappointed with my experience in this culinary program. I waited a long time to…read morereceive financial aid, so when I finally started, I was excited and had high expectations. Unfortunately, the baking program did not provide the foundation I expected. We did not have proper instruction in basic sanitation, food safety, knife skills, or kitchen safety, which I found to be a major red flag.This should be emphasized from the beginning. I also noticed poor practices regarding cross-contamination and uniform hygiene that were not addressed. I did learn a few things during my time in the program, but overall, I felt like I was mostly thrown into the kitchen and expected to figure things out as I went. Having only one instructor responsible for everything made it difficult to receive the individual attention, instruction, and attention to detail that students need. There were times when I felt like I was not receiving a proper culinary education or learning the professional terminology and techniques that I should have been learning. The teacher would also often leave the class because he didn't buy the ingredients we need or the ingredients we had were expired. I entered this program excited to build a strong foundation in baking and develop the skills necessary to work professionally in the culinary industry. Unfortunately, the education and structure I experienced did not meet those expectations. I believe the program needs stronger instruction in sanitation, food safety, kitchen safety, foundational techniques, professional terminology, and proper industry standards. Overall, my experience was disappointing, especially considering how excited I was to finally begin my culinary education.

My husband organized a private dinner for my birthday with friends. It was truly such an amazing…read moreexperience. So fun, warm, and heart filling, AND belly filling!!! Chef Simone was amazing! He had some of us help out in the kitchen, and that was really fun/cool to get some tips on prepping some of the items. The food was seriously fantastic. He put together a tomato sauce and guanciale pasta for us, with some side dishes (chicken and prosciutto, mushrooms, and mashed cauliflower) and finished it off with a Tiramisu from scratch! Place a special cake for me on top of that, which was probably one of the best chocolate cake/mousse desserts (sorry I don't know what it's called) I've ever had. I would 100% do this again and highly recommend to anyone looking for something different to do with a big group.

What sets this event apart from all others is the attentiveness of the staff, the coziness of the atmosphere and the family vibe of the entire experience. If you need to host an event for 20-30 people, this is THE place to go. I wholeheartedly recommend this venue and the awesome staff at Cucina Migrante for your next corporate event!

Food was great and our group learned a lot about things we thought we were doing correctly for so long (knife skills, tips, tricks).

I often describe Tijuana cuisine as going through a culinary renaissance. So many restaurants keep…read moregetting better and fancier with each passing year, it's quite remarkable. Even Anthony Bourdain thought so... and come on, if Anthony Bourdain makes a statement about food, it must be truth. The funny thing is, as much as the culinary arts have grown in town there really aren't that many culinary schools in town that aren't crazy expensive private art schools. It's a bummer that people have to go across the border to get this sort of training and education. That's why I'm a fan of this Culinary Art School. The quality of chefs that come out of here is amazing, some of them work at the finest restaurants in town. Aside from the usual culinary school programs and degrees they also offer small workshops where anyone can sign up (last one I heard of was a beer appreciation course) if this is something that might interest you go ahead and sign up on their website so you can get the newsletter!
