January brings along one of Mexico's favorite celebrations: Día de Reyes or Wise Men Day. The traditional foods
eaten are different kinds of tamales (the quintessential party food) Rosca de Reyes (a soft and sweet style bread

prepare tamales and Mexican style Hot Chocolate. Then a full dinner with drinks will be served in the tradition of
this holiday.
Participants will take home a packet of recipes and ingredients along with the detailed to-die-for recipes in a
goodie bag to get them started in their own kitchens!
