- While visiting Barcelona we were so glad that we decided to book this cooking class. First of all, the studio space that is used for the class, and to dine afterwards, was so charming and comfortable. Claudia, who was our chef instructor, was very knowledgeable and organized as she led us through cooking the Paella, a couple of Spanish omelets and a dessert for each of us. She had a great energy and sense of humor and all of us had a great time. The wine that was served was delicious and they were very generous with the pours. My only suggestions is to enhance the tour of the La Boqueria Market with more stops at key points and more background on the history of the market and food items. There was a nice explanation of the various jamons of the regions. Very fun night and the Paella was the best we had while in Spain. My wife and I would definitely do it again and strongly recommend the class.

Great intro to Spanish/Catalan cuisine - Our first time in Barcelona, appreciated the thorough directions to the class. Unfortunately, our plane arrived late and we missed the beginning of the class, the trip to La Boqueria to shop with our teacher, Janelle. But we did get there in time for the cooking, and Janelle was welcoming, personable and answered all questions. We all got to participate in preparing the food (which was delicious). There was unlimited wine while we prepared/ate the tapas, and then we went to a dining room table to enjoy the paella and dessert. A really fun afternoon and great introduction to the region. I recommend it highly.
