Mimo Bite The Experience

Mimo bite the experience is a dream realised for two chefs: Patricio Fuentes and Eneko Irizar. Patricio is a Chilean living in the Basque Country, he has more than 20 years experience working in restaurant kitchens all over the world. He wanted to share his passion and knowledge with others and started teaching the secrets of Basque Cuisine to food and travel lovers more than 5 years ago. Now he has teamed up with Eneko to embark on a new and exciting culinary experience. Being part of the well-known Luis Irizar family made it hard for Eneko to fight his origins.

Reviewed By dbachoy - Fairfield, United States

A truly once in a lifetime experience for the food enthusiast seeking a non-pretentious class. (Spoiler free review!) The class starts with a walk up to Lander’s beautiful apartment near the water where he gives an excellent introduction to the local sourcing of ingredients. His English is excellent. Music was excellent throughout, it made me feel like I was in the home of a long time friend catching up. It felt personal and exciting. Lander was born and raised in San Sebastián and loves to travel. He taught in Japan for some years and you can tell by the artifacts he has brought back with him. I would like to learn more about seafood from him. He even incorporated Asian touches to the Basque dishes to elevate them. While one member of the class was late, Lander sat with us at a coffee shop and chatted with us. He did not rush the class as a result and even took more time after the class to show us some of the ingredients in the local grocery store. I will not mention what we ate so it can be a surprise! We made many dishes and were very full by the end. You can BYOB, but it is not necessary, he has water and and some local alcoholic beverages for you to try. Good for most ages and experience levels. The food was phenomenal. Some of the recipes were taken from the famous restaurants in San Sebastián that perfected the dishes. I ate at those bars and actually enjoyed the food better in Lander’s home. My advice: take lots of notes and come hungry! He provides pens. Pictures are allowed and encouraged. The kitchen was always clean and the class flowed well. He kept us busy and held our attention throughout. The room was neatly spread out with ample space for the 5 people in the class. Overall, the experience was worth 4-5 hours and it was worth every single dollar. I recommend this to everyone who visits this city. Do not be shy to ask questions, Lander is kind, humble, intelligent, and welcoming. I would love to take another class from him. The recipes were simple to follow and you get printed instructions to take home. There was no extra fluff to the dishes, just the essentials plus some secrets to make the most amazing dishes.
