The menu changes weekly featuring traditional and exotic dishes from Mexico, Spain and Asia. Guests will enjoy a sit-down lunch in Ambar with views overlooking the lagoon, and taste some of the most delicious dishes they have ever cooked. Each course will be paired with premium Mexican wines by sommelier Eddy Yam.
Classes will be held in Ambar on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 10:30am to 2pm as follows:
Mondays – Traditional Mexican Cuisine
Wednesdays – A Taste of Spain
Fridays – The Art of Asian Cooking
Student chefs will receive recipes and cooking notes for easy step-by-step reference. Upon completion of the class, all graduates will receive a diploma and a signature Ambar apron. Class size is limited to a maximum of six people. Cost is USD 250 per person per class. Reservations are required 48 hours prior to the scheduled class.
