What truly seduces the palate is poc chuc, a stew based on pork that was first marinated, then grilled. It is proudly said that the local version is the best in the state. You can experience Maní’s rich culinary traditions up close with Doña Clotilde Poot. In her kitchen, she demonstrates her deep knowledge and traditional recipes, preparing traditional chayita gourds, sikil-pak salsa, beans with pork, spicy cochinita pibil pork, all accompanied by a delicious chaya, lime, and water drink and the region’s delectable candies. If you visit her on Day of the Dead, her pib will knock your socks off.
