Experience authentic tacos from El Farolito, award-winning ice cream from Humphry Slocombe, and delicious freshly baked mini cupcakes fromMission Minis. You'll also take a guided mural tour led by a docent from Precita Eyes before stopping into Mexican market, La Palma Foods, where you'll see some of the ingredients you'll later learn to cook with. TOUR STOPS ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE.
