why It Matters?
Educational moments don’t just happen in the classroom. Instead, we continue to learn and grow through our real-world experiences and pushing ourselves to explore new destinations both in our backyards and at the far ends of the earth. Culinary education is important because food is a foundational part of our lives. It sustains and nourishes us while allowing us to connect and partake in enjoyable culinary occasions. Campeche’s flavors are bold and delicious: seaside access means the freshest catches; traditional Mexican fare melds effortlessly with exotic Mayan flavors, and here in the peninsula, where Habanero is king, you don’t have to look far for thrilling food. This tour evokes Campeche’s authentic and beautiful culture, elevating this state’s identity through its delicious cuisine.
