Monte Cardón offers an appetizing array of services, including weddings, private dining, and, of course, its cooking class, which was ranked the #2 best thing to do in Los Cabos by Travel + Leisure Magazine. A cooking class at Monte Cardón allows guests to participate in the making of their meal: grinding Baja spices with a mortar and pestle, brushing fresh mole over the catch of the day, and roasting tomatoes in a wood-fired oven. Guests will be captivated by the blend of rich aromas, each amplified by the warm desert air that flows through their workspace. Whether you are an established foodie or have never worn an apron, Monte Cardón’s cooking class will guide you through an unforgettable hands-on culinary experience.

Monte Cardón embraces a slow-food philosophy. In a world of mass-produced food that goes from farm to factory to freighter, Monte Cardón sets itself apart through its dedication to using local, seasonal ingredients. Monte Cardón’s menu reflects the changing seasons, constantly evolving to follow the natural cycles that make distinct fruits and fish abundant in the Baja Peninsula at different times of the year. Its produce, beef, and fish are sourced from local suppliers to guarantee maximum freshness, nutrition, and sustainability. In fact, Monte Cardón guests can glimpse a sliver of the Sea of Cortez on the horizon. This gulf was once called the “aquarium of the world” by oceanographer Jacques Cousteau for its unparalleled diversity of marine life—this nearby sea is the source of all of Monte Cardón’s seafood.
