Item Description

When you are craving Mexican food in New York City, Dos Caminos may be one of the first place that comes to mind. With their individual spin on authentic Mexican cuisine, Chef Scott Linquist and Ivy Stark will teach 15 guests how to make much more than guacamole.

This is a rare opportunity to learn how to prepare modern Mexican appetizers, entrees, desserts and cocktails with two of the top chefs in New York City. The hands on cooking class will be followed by a decadent dinner with tequila pairings during each course.

Dos Caminos has captured the true spirit of genuine Mexican cuisine, with Executive Chef Ivy Stark spicing up the New York Mexican scene. From after-work margaritas to a fiesta-friendly lunch, dinner or brunch (with live music), Dos Caminos has earned a place among the city's top Mexican hot spots. Let the celebration at Dos Caminos begin!

Consider the menu a boarding pass to Mexico City. Enjoy our Rib Eye Steak Alambre, Ceviche Trio, or one of our other modern takes on traditional Mexican cuisine. No one should miss the freshly prepared guacamole(that Food & Wine called the City's Best) served with homemade tortilla chips - or veggies for those counting carbs!

After spicing up your night, cool down with our sweet, mouth-watering masterpieces created by Pastry Chef Hugo Reyes.

To wake up your taste buds on those lazy weekend mornings, be sure to check out Dos Caminos' hit-the-spot brunch, featuring our "Breakfast Americano" of seasonal specialties. Try Mexican favorites like Chilequlies - known in Mexico to cure hangovers - but this side of the border it's enough to inspire a passionate food obsession. And if you prefer a little Salsa with your salsa, come join us for Sunday brunch where the live music is hot!

Join us for an In the Shade or try one of our irresistible specialty cocktails, such as the Cosmo del Diablo that combines Chile-infused Vodka, Passion Fruit Juice and Pineapple Juice. Or sit back and sample one (or six) of our 150 tequilas hand selected by our Master Mixologist Eben Klemm and Beverage Department.

Whether day or night, make sure you take a moment to soak in the warmth of the hot pink, burnt orange and chocolate brown 275-seat surroundings, including murals and patterned tree trunk "chandeliers" designed by award-winning architects Yabu Pushelberg. You'll be feeling that Baja breeze in not time. Muy bien indeed!
