Don't wait any longer - have Chef Cecilia prepare an incredible meal for you!
We were so happy to have Chef Cecilia and her team make a special dinner onsite during our stay at Cinetica Estates. She was so easy to work with ahead of time, planning our delicious menu for a large group. On the evening of our meal, the team arrived, began cooking in the kitchen, served an incredible meal, and left the space spotless afterwards. We chose an incredible mushroom and cilantro soup for one of our courses - I could have had 3 more bowls! All the ingredients for the meal were local, fresh, coming together in elevated and beautiful food. Definitely connect with Chef Cecilia!

Wonderful Experience
We had Chef Cecilia make dinner one evening during our vacation. She was great with communication before and flexible on the menu (to accommodate some food allergies and a vegan). The food was delicious. She and her team were awesome and I would highly recommend using her!

The BEST food, and just a delightful experience.
Cecilia and her team made our trip to Sayulita feel truly decadent! She treated us to delicious food and great conversation in the comfort of our home, which was so relaxing and wonderful. With many menus to choose from, and the ability to “mix and match” to fit our family’s tastes, Cecilia truly has it all. She shopped for fresh ingredients each day for the meals we selected. We feasted on shrimp ceviche, homemade tortilla soup, mahi mahi filets, and chicken enchiladas, just to name a few. Even our children loved every bite! If you have the chance, be sure to book Cecilia for your next trip to Sayulita, you will be SO glad you did!

AMAZING MEALS!
We had such an amazing time with Chef Cecilia and her team. She cooked two delicious meals for our group of 10 in Sayulita. She even cooked the Mahi Mahi we caught on our fishing trip :)

Superb--best, freshest food in Sayulita
Chef Cecilia and her wonderful assistant Blanca cooked for us on the last night of our 8-day stay in Sayulita. We had eaten at what are supposed to be the best restaurants in town, and Cecilia blew them away. She had shopped that afternoon, so everything was absolutely fresh. The evening was both perfect and perfectly chill. She and Blanca are lovely people, professional and kind, and they created a very special evening for four of us. She is multi-talented, and every dish--from classics like the guacamole and tortilla soup (a highlight!) to the flourless chocolate cake (she also runs a bakery) were top notch. And after all that deliciousness, while we basked in it, they made the kitchen impeccable. Easily the best night of our vacation. Highly recommended and very reasonable prices (don't forget to tip!). We'll definitely enlist them again when we return.
