If you’re the type who takes advantage of any weekend to escape Mexico City and enjoy delicious food, make a note of this event. La Marquesa will host a culinary event dedicated to the traditional flavors of the State of Mexico, and this will also be the first edition of this gathering.
This is the First State of Mexico Gastronomy Festival, “Knowledge and Flavors of My Land,” which will take place on September 5 and 6 at the Batalla del Monte de las Cruces Museum, located in La Marquesa, Ocoyoacac.
The event will showcase part of the culinary heritage of those who have preserved recipes, techniques, and knowledge passed down from generation to generation. It will be an opportunity to explore the cuisine of the State of Mexico and discover everything behind its flavors.
What will this gastronomic event in La Marquesa have to offer?
Be sure to come with an appetite. Over the two days, there will be a culinary showcase, as well as workshops, lectures, and various cultural activities related to the traditions of the State of Mexico.
The goal of “Saberes y Sabores de Mi Tierra” is to highlight the culinary heritage of the State of Mexico and recognize the people who keep this knowledge alive. And since this is the first event of its kind, it also marks the debut of a new venue for celebrating and promoting the culinary identity of the State of Mexico.
The event is organized by the Government of the State of Mexico, through the Secretariat of Culture and Tourism.
A getaway from Mexico City to enjoy La Marquesa
The venue makes the event even more appealing. La Marquesa is one of the classic getaway destinations from Mexico City, especially if you’re looking for forests, the great outdoors, and traditional food without straying too far from the city.
This time, you’ll have an extra reason to visit: to discover different expressions of the State of Mexico’s cuisine while enjoying workshops and cultural activities in a wooded setting.
