EXPERIENCES
Blaxicocina curates cultural experiences in México & Colombia.
México
Blaxicocina Outside
Gulf to Table In Tamiahua, Veracruz
Enjoy a long weekend on Mexico’s Gulf Coast, eating your way through this tiny fishing community in northern Veracruz. We’ll spend quality time at various beaches, eat incredible and incredibly fresh seafood, learn about the history and folklore of the area, cook with local, ancestral chefs, and explore the town and its unique and traditional fishing system, as well as its relationship to its stunning lagoon.
Through a Blaxicocina lens, we’ll also follow the story of the food across borders and generations, looking at the Indigenous, African, and Spanish influences that have shaped Veracruzano gastronomy, including what gets remembered, what gets remixed, and what sometimes gets left out of the story.
Come hungry, curious, and ready to slow down.

colombia
A paint and sip experience in Cali, Colombia for creatives and foodies.
Food and drink, art and language exchange–two experiences in one! An intimate paint and sip session in the heart of Cali that offers participants an afternoon of freestyle painting, a flight of three small Soul Food / Afro Latin American fusion plates prepared in the moment by Chef Tiara, plus a complimentary shot of artisanal curao (or a zero-proof refresher), a locally-produced Afro-Pacific Colombian spirit distilled with sugarcane, ancestral herbs, and spices.
No instruction, no rules! This is not a guided art class. It’s a no-pressure, creative and communal jam session designed to spark conversation and cultural exchange, in a relaxed and intimate setting. Language exchange is highly encouraged!
