Our chef, Manuel Zuloaga, was an excellent teacher as well as a very good chef. Starting in a small, well-stocked neighborhood market, he introduced us to a large range of local fish as well as very fresh produce. (Did you know there are 5 varieties of mangos? And the different tastes and uses?) He bought fresh shrimp and ceviche ingredients for our meal that he would teach and prepare in his home kitchen. I learned different, better methods of prepping than I had been using for years. Delicious meal, great learning, and super chef/teacher.
