5 stars for Marc! - This cooking class with Marc is amazing! We made the best seafood paella and learned how to make it when we go home. We stayed for 3 hours eating, drinking and chatting. It was a blast. Highly recommend!

Go for an evening, take the memories home forever - Have you ever had one of those once-in-a-lifetime experiences that are so unique and special that you know you'll never forget it? That's what Mark's amazing experience is like. We felt like we were welcomed as family from the moment we arrived until the last second we left. He's an amazing host, a wonderful teacher, and a memorable cook. He weaves much more than just basic, clean ingredients into his delicious paella. He mixes in personal stories, local history, genuine love, and a smile that makes you feel like you're right at home. Yes, the food and wine are tasty and plentiful, but the creative venue, artistic space, and uplifting conversation is what makes this opportunity worth far more than the price of admission. I might never see him again but I will remember the immersion he gave us into an entire world of culture that he captures from within one steel pan.

Love this! - Loved this cooking class! Small group so we all got to be engaged and participate. Our chef José was wonderful and had so much knowledge regarding the history of paella and tapas and sangria.

You won't be disappointed in taking this class! - I loved everything about this class. The explanations of how to cook paella were very clear. We got to take part in making it. I honestly thought we would be making our own, but that would have been cumbersome. I just got back from my trip and can't wait to make my own for my family.

Full marks for integrity. - We were not able to attend the class due to construction issues. And due to email issues we did not gat the communication from trip advisor. but the host personally showed up to give us a quick tour and make sure we knew what was happening. Host is extremely knowledgeable and we are planning a stop in Barcelona next year just for this class. Extremely excited about it, much better than anticipated and we’ll with the cost.

A Friend’s Kitchen - The group consisted of a total of 2 couples so it made for a nice environment that wasn’t too big. It was interactive but you don’t make your “own” paella. You get to assist in making it. You also get to make a tapa to curb your appetite with a glass or more of a local vino blanco. The paella was great and much better than what you would receive in many restaurants in Barcelona.

Would not recommend. Broken glass pitcher of sangria. - Was expecting a more hands on experience. Instead, the instructor made one paella for the group. The venue was a construction zone. Tripped multiple times over tiles that were not flat and hidden under a rug. Our server broke the glass pitcher of sangria on the wine glasses and continued to pour and serve the sangria with broken glass in it. Would not recommend.
