For centuries, the Totonac people of Papantla revered the vanilla orchid as a sacred gift, and their region became known as “the City that Perfumes the World.” This remarkable ingredient later found its way into the spiced cacao drinks of Aztec emperors before captivating Europe and the rest of the world.Today, that legacy lives on through Casa Papantla, where a family tradition of producing exceptional vanilla has been passed down since 1873. The Casa Market is committed to preserving these generations of craftsmanship while supporting more than 300 farming families in the region. By sharing the authentic flavors and stories of Papantla, they honor one of the world's most treasured ingredients and the communities that continue to cultivate it.MenuSeasonal Citrus Salad with Vanilla VinaigretteSteak with Bourbon Vanilla SauceChicken Vanilla CurryVanilla-Scented Jasmine RIceVanilla Bean Panna Cotta with Strawberry Vanilla SauceSafety & PrecautionsAt check-in, you will be asked to sign a waiver before entering the Cooking School.For that reason, we ask that all attendees arrive at least 5 minutes prior to the confirmed start time of the class.FAQsFor more information about our classes, please click on the links below: Find FAQs about our in-store classes here.
