Make chocolate and atole with Poncho’s Tlayudas
Join chefs Poncho Martinez and Evelyn Gregorio at Lugya'h in Maydan Market to work with heirloom corn, cacao, and traditional tools as you learn the ancestral methods behind these Zapotec staples.
Listing highlights
What you’ll do
We created Lugya'h (Meaning “the face and heart of the plaza”) to honor the mercados that shaped us—the places where Oaxaca gathers, cooks, and celebrates.
Join us in our kitchen to see how we keep the fire of tradition alive. You’ll roast cacao over an open flame, grind beans by hand, and whip atole with a molinillo as we share the ancestral methods behind Oaxacan chocolate. Then you’ll shape your own bar to take home before sampling market staples and finishing with an authentic Zapotec drink.
